Mobile

From The Extended Group

The Mobile is a land vehicle constructed by combining Jeremy's sled with Owen's beat-up skateboards. The term itself was coined by Jeremy, and is pronounced the way you wouldn't think to pronounce it.

Inaugural Run

The first attempt to ride the mobile took place shortly after midnight on a cold winter night in 2003. The mobile ended up making more noise than expected, which awoke Jeremy's neighbors. Rather than chastise the group or call the police, the neighbors timidly asked how much longer we would be. Sufficiently guilted, the group postponed further runs to a later date.

Blind Run

Perhaps overconfident by past successes with the mobile, the group later attempted to ride it blindfolded. Because Jeremy was already blindfolded from earlier events of the evening (see How we are all so gay), it was determined that he would pilot the test run. In a fortunate turn of events, Jeremy would narrowly avoid a parked car and instead crash into a stop-sign.
