Not mc related, but kinda cool....  Hired by a film company to work on set.  
They are filming a WW2 movie for HBO, kinda like BandOfBrothers, or sumthin' .... I don't know a lot of the details.
Called Rhineland after the German town/battle.
I've been working on it through December, and my jobs ends in March.

Neatest thing about it is getting exposed to different people and their particular 'world'  
Everyone lives in a bubble, and it is really interesting to step outside of mine, and see what others lives are all about.  Very interesting people I have met.

On a motorcycle note, my business partner and I are going to be sponsoring several CCS racers for 2006.
We will have 3 different levels of sponsorship.
I will post all the details in about 4 weeks.

Anyways, Happy Holidays  :)

I make the cast & crew COFFEE  :P ;D

I don't recognize any of the actors, so they are prolly unknowns.  Pretty low budget.  Gonna be on HBO, and then video. The night shoots are colddddd, daddy-O :'(

Coolest thing about it is seeing them do their thing, and getting to meet people who are just as passionate about their craft as we are....but in a completely different arena.  I am making some good contacts and friends, outside the motoorcycle venue, so that's cool.
It's really interesting to see how they make a movie too.


On the sponosorship stuff, we are going to be giving free product and labor(A), bare-material cost on products and labor(B), and then heavy discounts on product(C).
DanO is getting an A sponsorship.  We will prolly have 3 more of those(A) for CCS guys.  We are still hammering out all of the details.

R1, that sounds great.  I'll PM you my work number.  Call me after Christmas, and we will set up the details.

Scotty,
We are opening up a motorcycle race-product CNC manufacturing facility.
We will be a new company, but we are really going to try to help out a bunch of CCS guys from free to heavily disccounted parts.

I'll post up in less than a month w/ more info.
Right now we are at:
A) All products (some very high-dollar) free.  Any fabrication or welding repair free.
B) Material cost on products.  Heavy discounts on fab/welding.
C) Dealer cost on products.  No fab/welding work accepted.

and then the "licensed racer" discounts for CCS racers.

Anyone who gets sponsored will be happy w/ what we are going to be doing for them.  Hundreds of dollars of free chit, for a sticker on a bike  ::) :'(
