Me, Pika and the Spyder ... - 04-26-2009, 07:22 PM


So it's been a while since Pika and I have contributed around here. In fact it's been so long that I can't recall if I ever told all of you that Pika and I upgraded to a Dodge Durango a good while back.

Well after last summer's nearly $4/gallon prices I have been thinking about ways to save gas now that summer is almost here again. That is when I came across this, the BRP Spyder. It's kind of like a motorcycle and kind of not. To be honest I am not 100% what it is. But I think I want one.

"Pft, you can't have that. You need to save your money to send me to college." Pika is never far away when I am surfing the net.

"You are not going to college. You don't even go to school, you little free loader."

"Well why would I if there is no end game? Sheesh what do you think this is, Second Life?" Then Pika took control of the mouse and began clicking like a lunatic. "Besides, these people make SeaDoo's. That is the lamest car ever made!"

"SeaDoo's are watercraft, not cars you little plush idiot."

"Sure, if 'watercraft' means 'my car sucked so I drove it into the river to collect the insurance money." Then he just sat there looking at me. "What? You know it's true. And now you want to buy the spin off brand? Why don't you just drive a can of generic Spam around and call it the Treat Mobile?"

"First of all, one has nothing to do with the other. And second, 'Treat Mobile' would make me sound like a molestor."

To which Pika hopped off the desk, mumbling "Whatever makes you sleep, pervo."

I can't take that plushie anywhere. In fact we were at home so I hadn't take him anywhere and he's still a pain. Oh well, what'cha gon'na do?

Prophet out.

I've missed Pika. So much so, that I think we deserve photos just to prove he hasn't been surreptitiously offed. Just sayin.

Is he still hooked on a 5 bottle a day habit of TOBASCO or has he gone into the habenero stage yet where he actually farts fire?

PS glad to see you back1

No clue who you are.... I'm rather new....but your fun to read! ;-)

I recently saw a couple of these things out here in Katy.... they were VERY cool looking.... I couldn't figure out where I'd stash a car seat though....lol...

But heck...they are like 16K....and for the same price, I can pick up a Hyundai Tiberon....it comes with doors! ;-)

Do your self a fun favor and go look at some of the previous posts started by Digital Prophet. They will make you wish he came around more often!
