I have that shirt! The belt buckle is killer, though. :lol: I should one-up you with my Elektra logo from the back of the T1...

The contest wasn't fair, anyway. Members with artistic talent were allowed to compete. :)

Saw a photo of trailer hitch cover that was made from an old E61 group once. I thought about making one for my truck but someone would steel it unless I put a locking hitch pin on it.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."


Well quoted, poorly attributed. It was Teddy Roosevelt, yeah?

Anyhoo, we have another, similar phrase that we use in theatre. It's a bit shorter and and to the point.
"F*(% the critics!" seems to sum it all up nicely.
I do like the poetry of your quote though, Ian. ; >
