Insert clever airhead based title here ....

Actually I usually picture you looking like this:

It looks to me like there is most of an actual racing sidecar underneath all the extra bits and spray paint...:huh

Either contains elements of truth...

He's returning to Yamaha

Whilst the F1 Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas is but 5 days and 18 hours away, I fear F1 in the states will always suffer from the lack of a current home-boy driver...

I imagine then that you maybe don't follow MotoGP, or do but have been cut off in the cabin in the woods for the last 4 months? 1st visit to Yamaha @ Valencia this afternoon after being released by Ducati yesterday, prior to the 1st run on the YZR-M1 tomorrow morning, though I understand rain is likely Tue/Wed.

I'd be VERY interested to receive a translation of the glyph on his back...

Please do stick the pic under the nose of anyone & everyone you know who might be able to identify & translate the glyphs. The more translative perspectives the better. Pretty Please !?!

Reply 1 comes from New Zealand = "In Chinese it is gandong and means 'Be Moved' emotionally. 'Gan' means 'feel' or 'sense' and 'dong' means 'to move'"...

Interesting. Cheers Mr Smart...

My Japanese is a little rusty, but I think it says "Varentino Lossi"

Here in the Former United Commonwealth Kingdoms we tend to have just two primary frames of reference relative to your stated location of Hawaii, and that's the 70's version of 'Five O', and Dog Chapman... I'm faxing Mrs Chapman your pic right now

Dog who? :huh For a slightly different view of Hawaiian life, check out the comedy of Rap Replinger: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=rap+replinger+mahalo+airlines&oq=rap+replinger&gs_l=youtube.1.3.0l8.313.9339.0.21442.12.10.0.2.2.2.644.3230.3j0j1j2j2j2.10.0...0.0...1ac.1.qa-8N7dayMM

Reminds me of the aircrew in Barbados

For those of you elsewhere that don't know the Dog, he's basically a truly bad haircut with a badge...

Of course I know who Dog is, but I never watch the show. Mrs. Dog is kinda cute, in that "don't call me a bitch or I'll put you in the hospital" sort of way:

Of course I guessed so , but thought I'd post an ident for anyone elsewhere that didn't - cheers

'The first official MotoGP™ test for the 2013 season in Valencia got off to a slow start as cold ambient temperatures and rain hampered teams’ efforts, although it didn’t stop Álvaro Bautista from topping the mid-day timesheets, and Valentino Rossi making his Yamaha debut.'
