Fibers and How they act at parties

So here is the news on the home front

The ghetto is back on the wall, old fucken man winter finally woke his ass up and decided he wanted to play a little. it got really cold in the last couple days, i didnt even get to ride the ghetto to ultimate pratice, but i did make it to ultimate pratice, and i walked my ass there, and played on the ice, and fell.... alot... but it was cold, must have been 0 or close too it!

any ways, there is no good or bad news about the ghetto as of yet, the tires are pumped and ready to go, i do have to do some re adjusting on the cleats on the shoes, cuz the inside of my feet rub on the crank arms, other than that she is good.

I am currently looking to a carbon fiber handle bar and seat post for her, only becuase i am tired of the suspension seat post and i think she would look even more intersting with carbon fiber on her.

but i still dont trust carbon fiber,

here is why,

time for my engineer mind to step in and bore you

different materials have different impact strengths.
and im pact strength refers to how the materal can take a strike from an object has hard or harder than its self and how it responds.

for example, steel has a large impact strength, it can take a hit, dent and be ok, it will we weakened but could still be safe to use.

aluminum has a smaller impact strength, if hit and dented it becomed very week, and aluminum is brittle, there for it will more than likely fail under load or stress.

carbon fiber has a low impact strength, it does not bend, there for if struck it will crack and fracture and break, making it unsafe to use.

Where this all works in to the game

say i got some handle bars mad of steel, and one makde of aluminum and another made of carbonfiber

the steel could take a hit from a tree, or a rock and keep on going
the aluminum could take a hit from a tree and rock, if bent i would not use it for fear of fracture and it breaking

carbn firber could not take a hit it would break!

now you ask... but i was told carbon fiber is super light and strong...
and i tell you yes.... it is both but stong only in the way it was inteded to be used. carbon fiber is molded to take stresses in usualy only one direction, there for in that direction it could be stonger than steel or aluminum,

here is how i can explain it more, take a piece of string, and pull it tight, it is stong in the direction you are pulling it in, this is the fiber in carbon fiber

now ask a friend to pull at the middle of the sting, now you see, that the fiber is only strong in the drievtion in it is being pulled, or pushed in. pulling in the center and out of the direction that its orginal pull makes it week.

there for it has low impact strength

get it..... no? ok go to maine maritime academy, take the strenghts of materials class and come back and we will talk

or e-mail me and i will send you a coppy of some of the text and you can read for your self!

ok im done where was it...................

ok her are the other reasons i dont trust carbon fiber, i have seen it break more often than steel and aluminum and there is no warning to it breaking!

ok im done now

have a good day
hope the weather warms up
later

Hoochie mama

Squid here

Ok so here is the deal, The ghetto cog got of the wall today
i rode her to ultimate pratice, to the bank and to subway.. also to the army store to get new sneakers.

so this is what i learned
I really dont like the suspension seat post any more

i just dont like it, i have to put it high so when i sit on it and it compresses i am at the right hight!

My lake shoes need some adjusting or cant be used with the ghetto, the inside of my feet rub the crank arms

and finally, i found the theam song for the ghetto cog

Hoochie Momma, by 2live crew... not only is this one of the best songs ever created, but it represents the ghetto cog! she is a hoochie momma

here are the lyrics for ya

[Intro]: [Mr. Mixx]
Big booty hoes -- up wit it!
Hoochie mamas -- up wit it!
Let me see ya touch the ground!

Verse 1: [Brother Marquis]
I don't know my reputation
But all the niggas in the hood say it's all good
But the bitch ain't shit, so you need to make a switch
Smackin' on ya lips with your hands on your hips
Triflin' slimy, don't try me
Playin' on the phone? You supposed to be grown
Bitch, stop lyin', I ain't with it
Keep runnin' ya mouth and I'ma stick my dick in it
Hoochie hoodrat needs home training
Ghetto-ass always complaining
Tryin to clown in front of my friends
By the way, bitch, can I get those ends?
Fuck theatrics, you ain't no actress
Lay on the mattress and let a nigga splak it
The bitch is full of DRAMA!!
Hoochie hoodrat is a hoe like her momma!

Chorus (2x): [Mr. Mixx]
She ain't nothin' but a hoochie mama!
[Hoodrat, hoodrat, hoochie mama!]
Yeah, she ain't nothin' but a hoochie mama!
[Hoodrat, hoodrat, hoochie mama!]

Verse 2: [Fresh Kid Ice]
Hoe I love your big brown eyes
And the way you shake your thighs
Actin' like you're so damn cute
Let a real nigga just knock them boots
I don't need no confrontation
All I want is an ejaculation
'Cause I like them ghetto hoochies
Ones who like to pop that coochie
[Hoo wee!] Miami style!
Makin niggas smile, bitch get wild
'Cause freaky shit is what I like
and I love to see two bitches dyke
My favorite time is 69
Bitch you know it's hoochie time
Fuck what you heard and save the drama
All I want is my hoochie mama!

Chorus (4x):

[Luke]
You ain't nothin' but a hoochie ma-ma!
[Hoodrat hoodrat hoochie mama!]

Verse 3: [Brother Marquis]
Mama just don't understand Why I love your hoochie ass
Sex is what I need you for I got a good girl, but I need a whore
I like my bitch promiscous Hot in the ass and ready to fuck
Foreplay your way, our way, my way
Trick or freak, and I hit it on Friday

[Fresh Kid Ice]:
Girl, you know you look so cute
Ridin' 'round town in ya Dazzey Dukes
Come on over for a visit
Let a nigga ride in ya Civic
Cos I like them ghetto hoochies
One who got them big ol' booties
Save the drama for your mama
All I want is my hoochie mama

Chorus (4x):

[Luke]:
You ain't nothin' but a hoochie ma-ma!
[Hoodrat, hoodrat, hoochie mama!]

[Luke]:
BREAKDOWN!!!
(Mixx scratches: "God damn, you a trooper!)

Outro(2x): [Mr. Mixx]
You ain't nothin' but a hoochie mama!
[Hoodrat, hoodrat, hoochie mama!]
Yeah, she ain't nothin' but a hoochie mama!
[Hoodrat, hoodrat, hoochie mama!]

She Sits

soo good eavning everyone
squid here

so she (ghetto cog) has been sitting on her wall stand for weeks now, and i feel kinda bad about it, i really want to ride but i have been so bussy skiing, mountaineering, or just plain sitting on my ass, that she has not had a chance to hop off the wall and make a treck around St jay. I hope tomorrow i will take her out if it is not really rainy, snowy and nasty out, i got to go to ultimate pratice and play in the snow for 2 hours. she will like the trip up the hills!

but allas (spell that right? who cares) she stares at me. but hay, guess what, the other bike i have been working on took of all of a sudden. this weekend i might just totaly finish it!

here is the story, some one i know at the virt park has an old dyno by gt. and he left it out side for like.... years. so he gave it to me to fix or i opted to fix it so i could use a bmx when ever i wanted in the park. basically all i needed to do was clean off the surface rust. re do the bearings and there she is a good bike again!

anyways, i started cleaning off the surface rust yesterdaynight and it was easier than i thought and the crome is staying put which is nice! so anyways, when im done i will post a pic of the dyno next to the ghetto cog, cuz this is her sight!

anyways, squid out
booyaa
