• Find your pubmates -or- Become a tracked slab of meat

  Yes, it's true. I'm a Google whore. If it's new from Google, then I've got it installed. So far I've been plesently surprised! Picasa, Google Maps, Mobile Gmail, Google Video, Blogger, Google Earth, everything except for that crappy... Posted Feb 05 2009, 02:53 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic

• Keepin' it oldschool

  How did motorists rock-out before the invention of the 8-track player? With the Highway Hi-Fi Phonograph! This image been hiding on my hard drive for years. Thought you'd get a kick outta it. Posted Dec 14 2008, 11:54 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Funny

• Road hazard - Going up... Second floor, housewares, linens and appliances

  Ok, this is a tad bit off topic but it's astonishing to watch. I hope everyone had a chance to evacuate. Probably so since the road was already blocked off.

• Off Topic - Easily the most profound video I've seen in years

  John Watson shares media links with me every once in a while. Most links are quick, little bits of interest. They pop up, I go "hrm..." or "haha!" or "I need to share this with the readers!". Well THIS definitely falls into... Posted Mar 28 2008, 03:28 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Video, OMG

• Off Topic - This sport will take your breath away

  I guess it's not completely off topic. If you rode your scooter off a cliff it would be a bit like this... just not as freakin' awesome. Thanks to John W. for the link! ;) Posted Mar 24 2008, 06:24 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Video

• Micromoto racing looks like it belongs on cuteoverload.com

  Six year olds + 39cc minimoto race bikes + giant helmetheads = Awwwww CUTE! (Bradley "Stunt boy" Ray in some kneedraggin' action from Josh Daley's site ) Posted Mar 04 2008, 04:29 PM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Motorcycle, Race

• Ear Ache forces scooterist to cancel Wednesday night ride

  Ugh... I'm feeling a bit better now, but for the last four days I've been fighting this killer ear infection. Now I know what Grendel (above) felt like. If his MILFy mom would have just gotten him some Amoxicillin instead of spending her time... Posted Feb 01 2008, 02:55 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Personal

• A most expensive way to roast marshmallows

  So you're a young kid and want to roast marshmallows but, what do you do when you've got more money than sense? Buy an expensive crotch rocket and twist the throttle until something cool happens. Keep watching... it takes about 50 seconds to get... Posted Dec 04 2007, 04:11 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Motorcycle, Funny, Video

• Does this helmet make me look silly?

  My friend, Peter Pinetree in Portugal, was browsing the BBC News' "Day In Pictures" and found this wacky new prototype helmet to be used by Joint Strike Fighter pilots. It would have been cooler if the eye tracking system used red lights... Posted Nov 15 2007, 04:11 AM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Funny, Helmets

• Off topic?: VH1's The Pickup Artist concludes... scooterist doesn't win this time

  (Portland scooterist and pickup artist who bowed out too soon... Spoon) Don't know if you were keeping up with this entertaining and educational show. I won't say the winner's name to prevent spoilage, but I will mention another one of the... Posted Sep 25 2007, 04:55 PM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Yamaha

• Way off topic: Music and movies

  (nothing says "off topic" like a golfing moose) Just because I figure SOMEONE will appreciate it, I wanted to list a couple of useful tools and one badass movie trailer for something to hit in May 2008. First, let's talk music. If you are... Posted Sep 17 2007, 03:07 PM by The Scooter Scoop! Filed under: Off Topic, Music, Movie

• Vespa inspired toilet?

  Over at DesignSpotter (title link) I found this design that looked awfully familiar, especially with that shadow model sitting there. It was only on closer reading did I realize this wasn't some Vespa simulator or new-fangled school desk, but something... Posted Sep 11 2007, 05:50 AM by The Scooter Scoop!
