Tonight at the FFC and BLINGIN wedding I had the PLEASURE and HONOR of meeting MARLIN and his family and I have to tell you I'm 41 years old and he is the nicest man I have ever had the horor of talking to we spent at least an hour or more just talking about my job and offroading it was truly my pleasure and honor to have meet him and his lovely wife Cristine and  :headscratch: um   :screwy: who was the other guy there  :dunno: .... I think his name was "LIL MIKIE"   :headscratch: :dunno: whatever.... he had a very nice wife though, oh yea WERMY was in da house too with his lovely girlfriend and she was a blast.

eric clapton and bb king at the same time

I thought I liked you Dan!!   :mad:  I'm a EC freak!


I've met, Marlin, Christine, Bigmike, and various guys from the shop.  And other Marlin members.  Cliff Robinson (ex Blazer) now Pheonix Sun I believe.  I put a white spoke wheel on his Hummer!  (it was all we had)  Lou Gramm from Foreigner, Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee of Motley Crue.  And General Chuck Yeager, who was a very cool guy! 

My wife still talks about how the coolest guy she ever met was Marlin!!
Miss ya Dean (4THEWKN) & Kyle (KYOTA)!!

RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

:usa: Its better to die on your feet than live on your knees :usa:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

"I don't believe in a government that protects us from ourselves."
              -Ronald Reagan

Don't take life too seriously, it isn't permanent

I'm going to go out on a limb here...please don't throw stones.  :lipsrsealed:

I have never met Marlin, but am certain that he's ever bit the guy everyone describes and I hope to meet him in person at some point, but does everyone really need to keep planting kisses on his hind end in every post?  It's getting embarrassing...

 :psss: I spoke with him on the phone a long time ago and also met his daughter once before I knew the connection or even who Marlin was.
