You guys whoopin up on ol' lazs?
I told him to watch out for them mud movers.
-
My moneys on lazs. He looks like a mean old woolybooger. I doubt the mud movers could take him.
-
whats a "woolybooger"??
-
They were so mean that he sobbed himself to sleep last night. This wouldn't be a problem but I am rooming with him and the whiney noises are very irritating.
Seriously though, I thought it was a bit annoying dealing with all the drex groupies last year. But I wasn't really expecting to see the horde of shameless lazs groupies that have crawled out of the woodwork. Watching the TAS guys arm-wrestle each other to see who gets to buy him a drink is frankly sickening. At least the restraining order against hblair went through on time and we don't have to put up with him.

a "wooly bugger" is a leach pattern wet fly..
maybe it something like that.
-
lazs is cooler in public then he is on the board for sure
he said hb was a pansy for not showing up though.
-
But everybody said that...cept the FDB's and, well, this is a public board:D
-
No one's posted a picture of Lazshole yet? Or did all the cameras somehow break? :)

Typing is safer than talking. :)

Lazs is even more like himself in person than he is on the BBS. Ask MarkAT or GhostH.

That is an interesting turn of phrase- how does one come to this conclusion?

They met him in real life?

I suppose we are all more like ourselves in person.... :D
-
Lazs is da bomb:) I have thoroughly enjoyed our chats:)
-
holligan remind me next year to say to hell with work and just go to con.
-
Lazs is SO nice! I like him a LOT!
Oops - this is Nimitz posting under Wab's account.

No... on what basis do you have a comparison? How do you know which version is more accurate, the BBS personna or the person you meet in person, and how do you know one is not more or not less...
...head spinning...
-
I had the opportunity and pleasure of chatting with Laz on a couple of occasions. I find him to be a really interesting person. He also has some hobbies I always wished I could have, for example: An Austin Healy 100/4 with a small block 327 shoehorned in it :).
The guy is genuine in my opinion, and even if he and I find different things to enjoy in AH I certainly did not see where what he wanted was unreasonable.
Take it from me, he is a cool dude.
-
thanks guys.. kieran.. I think they meant that I was exactly the same in person as I am on the board.. It is hard for teachers to understand the joke I think.
I was really looking forward to meeting all the guys that I have had these friendly BB conversations with and was not disapointed. I enjoyed myself immensly and everyone was just as interesting as I had expected. I wish that I had more time so that I could have monpopolized even more discussions while I was there. I wasn't the brightest but I was the loudest. Rude was particularly easy to shout over as were most of the tas guys. Even the AK's seem very lifelike in person and ghosth and mark were pleasantly hostile at first.
All in all..... a blast... If you missed it then.... well, you may as well just stay in your house and fly fluffs.

Lazs who?
-
I'm sick of missing all the cons. Taking a 10 hour drive to Texas is too gay though. I'll try to be there next year guys (I've said that for 3 years)

Ya could try one of them new fangled flyin' machines, they're faster. :p
-
Yeah I could. But I hear tell they got 163's in barns all around grapevine. I don't wanna risk it.
-
LOL
-
I like lazs in person, I dislike him here on the BBS. ;)
-
I was able to meet Lazs twice for just a brief second or two but no real opportunity to have a conversation. The first time when I'd just rolled in and still had my luggage and was overwhelmed meeting all the dogs who he was chatting with. The second time he quickly introduced himself on the elevator before he exited on the 2nd floor. He seemed a friendly person to me. No fangs or bloody claws or anything like that. I regret I didn't get the chance to ask him how he is able to do so well in the F4U-1 since that has become my bird of choice.

100/4 with a small block 327 shoehorned in it
Anyone putting a small block chevy in a Healey should be shot...
Abarth or Stebro exhaust from a six cylinder Healey is a sound that a chevy will NEVER make.
Put it in a Triumph or an MG, MG ain't good for much else..or the later Triumphs..
Put that six back in her lazs..
Chevy in a Healey :rolleyes:
MY GOD MAN..
-
Yeah, the dogs had Laz (http://www.arff.info/images/lazs-dogs.JPG) cornered for just a frog hair! ;)
-
I thought she was purty cute.
-
who's who in the pic ?
-
From left to right: Laz, Daddog, Ghosth and TeeRex.
-
I heard that all the con goers did the 'train' on Lazs. poor SOB!

Now what the hell does that mean? :D
Concerning Lazs, the BBS conversation conceals his lazy grin and general good humored approach to conversation.
BTW, I understand everyone at the West end of the room suffered eye damage. That damn Rip wouldn't keep his hat on and the glare was just awful.
Ammo was a helluva guy except for his lamentable ignorance of javelinas. Both Ammo and Rip look like they don't need guns to go hunting. :)
Drex is a fair shot ... seems to rarely miss the one that counts. Heck, he even shot himself once - heh, heh, good call Nimitz. :)
Ghosth makes great cranberry brandy and he shares! :)
Urchin learned he needs to fly spits, or at least so Shaw opined.
Hooligan reminds me of me 20 years ago - genuine, in the flesh, progammer geek. :)
Heck, I enjoyed everyone ... I can't say I met anyone who wouldn't be fun to visit with for a while.

Poopster,
the Austin Healy 100/4 is a early four (4) cylinder version, not the six (6) cylinder version found in the 3000. Personaly I would love to have the original, but the 327 would sure add some liveliness to the old girl :)

That was a tactical decision, it distracted anyone from looking over my shoulder to see where my missions were going :D
GREAT meeting you and your shifty-eyed Lawyer son (Nimitz :D) Thank you once again for the rudder pedals!
Amazing how cons can draw so many together and gives the satifaction of many more friendships cast for a lifetime!

MY GOD MAN..
Wait a minute, Didn't the 100/4 have a four cylinder engine? I think you have confused it with the 3000. As it is the 100/4 sounds like a lawn tractor.
If engine changes to classics were a crime, Carrol Shelby and Ken Miles would be in jail. After all, they created the Cobra and Tiger by wedging a 260 ci Ford V8 into an AC Ace and Sunbeam Alpine, respectively. While it may irritate the purest, it's an American tradition to do what Laz did, and takes no small amount of mechanical skill either.
Back in the 1970s, my brother and I installed a Rover V8 in a '67 Sprite. It took us nearly two years to get it sorted, but man, it was a hoot! Likewise, author Warren Bodie was well known in southern California in the 1960s for his bright red AC Ace, re-engined with a 327 Chevy. He too did the conversion himself.
My hat's off to Laz.
My regards,
Widewing

After meeting Lazs in person I will never be the same!! I start therapy next week :eek:
But he realy is a good guy :) and he does like to dominate the conversation ;)
-
Lazs is a great guy live and in person. Yep, never thought I'd hear myself saying that. But he's a popsiclecat in real life, nothing like the mean old cranky, toothless, bald reactionary that he portrays himself to be on this BBS.
After talking to him for about 10 minutes, he said to me "banana, you're not nearly as uptight in person as you are on the boards!"
"I was just thinking the same thing about you, Lazs" I replied.
So we got along famously at the con, as did most everyone else with him.
So, I can't see myself ever taking Lazs too seriously when he posts here ever again. For however misguided he appears on the boards, he truly is a good guy up close and personal. :)
-
banana, We don't want that. Give us the Jerry Springer dirt please. Did anybody have to get out their slappers? Any chokeholds? Just dirt please. Thanks. :)
-
damn.. blow my image all to hell why don't ya!
sheesh.
he looks.. well... normal :eek:
and as old as me :)
-
Sounds like you alls had a lotta fun.
Wish I coulda gone, mebbe next year... would of gone this year, but no one wanted to pay for me to fly from DC to Texas... cheap bastards...
Did they have any door prizes? Who won 'em?
-SW
-
Oh yeah and it simply wouldn't be a convention without someone going sleeveless to show off their big muscles! (http://www.arff.info/images/rip.JPG)
Trying to impress the sheep or the FDB's?
-SW
-
I have heard from a inside source that wasnt really Laz. It was an impersonator he hired to throw all you off.
xBAT
P.S. Isnt RL cool... and arent these boards so damn misleading... food for thought eh?
(http://ubbsmile.free.fr/smileys/svet.gif)
-
yeah.. it's prolly a good thing Laz showed up..
or else he'd have a virtual possie after him !
lol
but a Raiders fan ?!?!? sigh
-
first off.... I am not that insipid laz guy.
poopie.... abarth exhaust on little motors sounds like.. like.. prolonged flatulance. Is that how you got ur handle?
No way could I dislike ammo, rude or ripsnore. I couldn't have gotten em angry if I tried.
Ak's curly and nimitz were a blast to be around although I had to warn nimitz about inappropriate touching several times.
watching a ripsnore missun in person was everything I thought it would be. All it lacked was a lumpy couch and some 3 year old "people" magazines to make the experiance complete.
To top the whole thing off... some freinds from the Dallas chapter of the modified healey club set up a meet for me and I got to drive several 12 second healeys... Dallas cops are eitgher very tolerant or just plain lazy.

Lazs's room was 2 doors down from mine, you do not know how many times I *almost* "pennied" his door jam. :D I decided to be nice though. I'm generally a good natured guy in person (I've been told) as long as you don't serve me Tequila. ;)
-
*Gasp* Now Laz, I thought I was the only one who inappropriately touched you !! And that was in the hotel van on the way back to the airport.
Now you tell me that you were with both Nimitz and the entire group of FDB's ???
You slut ! ;)
-
I'm sick of missing all the cons. Taking a 10 hour drive to Texas is too gay though. I'll try to be there next year guys (I've said that for 3 years)
wah
Daddog and I drove 26 hours each way. Well worth it and easy to do. No excuses!
-
oo.. sorry. not Laz as in Lazer.. lazs
but you knew that.
That tears it.. I HAVE to make it next year.
hell maybe I can even make you a Hockey fan :)
-
Well I'm a dope, the 100/4 was a 4 banger..
I stand corrected.
But if memory serves me correctly "Prolonged flatulance" was a Tony award winning Broadway musical starring Martha Ray in the early fifties..
-
Laz is ok, imo he only has fault. He's basicly lazy.
He wants low cons served to him on a silver platter, no interuptions, no disturbances, no high boom & zoomers just a steady flow of cons for the BK machine to chew up. I do believe AH is growing a tad bit beyond that, however your welcome to keep trying.
Laz is also very good at having a lot of fun on the bbs with a minimum amount of effort.IE post one troll and sit back and catch all the fish.
While he's doing absolutly nothing but sit back and grin.
He is VERY good at what he does.
Of course I did make all those observations via a slight alcohol haze, so I could be wrong. :)
-
Laz, truly enjoyed meeting you and talking with you.
I think that rash of yours will clear up if you keep taking the medicine too.
-
Something fishy happened at that con, all of you turned to wusses... Someone call Voss!
-
Respect!? Insight!? Comaraderie!?
Lord save Us! What's going on down there?!
Frightened, Shuckins ;)
-
I'm thinking Laz must have been a knock down stunningly gorgeous babe. Everybodys hearts apparently turned to mush. What did she do to you guys?
-
verm... how could you say that? I thought what we had was deeper than a little inapropropriate touching... It's all nimitz fault.
Toad.. really great meeting you also. What's a little rash between friends?
hblair.. they like me more than they like you. na na na na na. In fact... they all told me that they don't like you at all and that you dress funny and smell bad and that I am better looking and smarter than you..

and ghosth... I thot we decided that the only difference between what i wanted in the game and what you wanted in the game was that I was right and you were wrong.. Oh, and that you lisp your handle and I don't.
saintaw.. voss won't help u.. I have trained scorpions.
poopie... "broadway musical"? Isn't that a little cliche for you people? (not that there's anything wrong with that)

What happened is Lazs was/has never been taken seriously, and when you meet him, that Sun-dried prune of a face begins to make a crinkling noise as it crackles into a big grin...its disarming to say the least. His biggest weapon is his smile. I did make a conscious effort to pronounce his name "Laz" instead of "Laaaaz" a few times, and he kept correcting me...so it was no fun after a bit. Not once did he call me "Ripsnore", I was disappointed to say the least...because then I WOULD have pennied his door jam on his room...:D
-
See Lazs
You screwed it all up, damnit you are no longer the BK spokesperson. Let me see we can't use hooly because they liked him too, ok Apache you step up and be annoying. Lazs you are out for at least 2 years while everyone start forgetting you at the con.
Ok I think I have done well at the damage control, and Drex is on the probation list ;)
-
sorry... cat's out of the bag.
It won't be nearly as much fun ribbing lazs now :(
