***SHIFTING GEARS*** MAN, AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, BOB DYLAN SAID IT BEST: "THE TIMES THEY ARE A'CHANGING." BEING THE ICE CREAM MAN FROM HELL FOR OVER 25 YEARS, IT'S BEEN A GREAT ROLLER COASTER RIDE ALL THOSE YEARS. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, I'VE BEEN COAST TO COAST AND INTO EUROPE. GREAT THANKS TO ALL FORMS OF THE NEWS MEDIA FOR THE HELP THAT PUT ME IN THE WORLD WIDE PUBLIC'S EYE. SOME OF YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW THAT I SPEAK FLUENT ITALIAN THANKS TO MY FAMILY. SO GOING INTO EUROPE, NOT ONLY WAS IT FUN, BUT RELATIVELY EASY. I'VE DONE ALL TYPES OF EVENTS IN MY CAREER. JUST TO POINT OUT A FEW: BEING AN ORDAINED MINISTER, I'VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF PERFORMING MARRIAGES, I'VE ATTENDED "KKK" RALLIES BY REQUEST, ALL THE WAY TO BIKER BUILD OFFS. LET ALONE ALL THE WHORE AND PONY BONE SHOWS I WAS INVITED TO. EVEN WHEN I LOOK BACK, I WONDER "WHERE THE FUCK?" AND "HOW THE FUCK DID I EVER END UP AT THIS EVENT?" THEN REALITY SETS IN AND THE TRUTH IS, "JOHNNY NEEDS NEW SHOES, MAMMA WANTS A NEW DRESS", AND OF COURSE THE GOVERNMENT WANTS THEIR "POUND OF MEAT". AND OF COURSE THEY GET THEIR "POUND OF FLESH" IN MEAT FORM. BESIDES, THEY NEED SOMETHING WARM IN THEIR BELLY TOO. I ALSO ASK MYSELF HOW I MADE IT THROUGH. WAS IT THE MATTER OF RESPECT? WAS IT COMMON COURTESY? OR COULD IT HAVE BEEN THE WONDERFUL SPIRIT OF "CALAMITY JANE" AND HER ZEST FOR LIFE, AND/OR ALL MY GUARDIAN ANGELS THAT HAVE WATCHED OVER ME THROUGH SOME OF MY MOST DARKEST MOMENTS. MAYBE IT'S INDIAN LARRY BEING A GOOD FRIEND THAT MAY HAVE MADE IT EASIER TO PROTECT ME FROM MY OWN STUPIDITY. WELL WHATEVER, I'M SURE IT WAS A FULL TIME JOB. WORKING MY WAY UP AND HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE THE STAGE WITH SOME OF THE TOP PLAYERS OF THE MOTORCYCLE WORLD. SOME BUILD SEATS, SOME BUILD BIKES, SOME AIRBRUSH AND SOME BUILD FRAMES. ME, I BUILD GOOD MEMORIES. WELL, MAYBE NOT ALL SO GOOD, BUT THAT'S WHAT I DO SO I'M IN THERE SOMEWHERE. NOT IN THE RACE, BUT IN YOUR MEMORY BANKS. MOST OF ALL, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU FOR THE MILES OF SMILES, WATCHING OUT FOR MY WELL BEING THROUGH YOUR KINDNESS, TO KEEPING MY BELLY FULL AND MY HEAD RIGHT. THANKS!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! MY BIGGEST AND DEEPEST THANKS GOES TO MY WIFE, ANNA. SHE'S BEEN RIGHT NEXT TO ME FOR THE ROLLER COASTER RIDE AND AM PLEASED TO SAY THAT AFTER A WHILE SHE JUST STOPPED ASKING QUESTIONS, A TRUE SAINT!! LORD KNOWS, I'VE HAD THE QUALITY OF LIFE THAT PEOPLE ONLY DREAM OF. NOW, I'M GOING FOR THE QUANTITY OF LIFE. HMMMMM, NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT BEFORE. LET'S FACE IT, A LOT OF CHANGE HAS COME AND GONE FOR ALL THE DAYS I'VE BEEN ON THE SCENE. DON'T GET ME WRONG, ICE CREAM MAN FROM HELL WILL ALWAYS BE HERE. YOU'LL STILL BE ABLE TO KEEP IN TOUCH FOR PERFORMANCES, MARRIAGES, APPEARANCES AND THE PLACE WHERE YOU NEVER EXPECT TO SEE ME AND THAT'S WORLD WIDE. I'LL STILL BE HERE FOR SPEECHES ON SUCCESS CONSCIOUSNESS AND INSPIRATION. I'LL INSPIRE YOU ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, YOU HEAR ME! YOU'LL STILL BE ABLE TO PURCHASE MY PRODUCT AND STUFF WHILE THERE'S STILL SOME TO BE HAD OR UNLESS SOMEBODY CARRIES ON THE LEGEND. BUT, NOWADAYS BEING AN OLD GUITAR PLAYER, I'M BUILDING CIGAR BOX BANJOS. SOME REAL COOL STUFF, CHECK IT OUT. I'M STILL DRIFTING THE COUNTRY AND MY WIFE'S STILL HOLDING DOWN THE FORT. IT'S BEEN GREAT TO HAVE MET YOU ALL AND SHARED SOME LAUGHS. SO FEEL CONFIDENT THAT I'LL SEE YOU SOMEWHERE. IF YOU SEE ME ANYWHERE, PLEASE COME UP AND SAY YOUR "HOW DO YOU DO'S". DON'T BE FOOLED BY ALL THE BULLSHIT THAT YOU SEE OR HEAR OUT THERE CAUSE I SURE DO KNOW ABOUT THE COPYCATS THAT CAN'T COME UP WITH THEIR OWN GIG. SO IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S UP, YOU GOTTA TALK TO ME! I APPRECIATE THE FLATTERY, BUT I DON'T DIG COAT TAILERS AT ALL. BUT LIVING VICARIOUSLY THROUGH MY LIFE GIVES US ALL HOPE FOR THE FUTURE OF THE MOTORCYCLE WORLD. SO, IF YOU'RE GONNA SIN.................
