Best Week Ever — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 00:00:00 -0500

It;s funny how sons are so often prone to take up the professions of their fathers, particularly when one;s father was a man who made his living by dressing up in sparkly America capes and jumping dirt bikes over enormous lines of parked vehicles. But young Robbie Knievel, son of Evel, seems to have done just that, as this past weekend he celebrated Memorial Day by jumping a motorcycle 200 feet over 24 delivery trucks, breaking his old man;s record of 14 trucks back in 75, then dedicating the feat to his dad. Might I suggest trying to impress your friends at the BBQ this afternoon with your own Evel Knievel tribute, in which you drunkenly fail to jump a ten speed over your Honda Accord, fall down, light a firework, and pass out in the kiddie pool you;ve filled with cans of cheap beer. At least that;s what I;m going to do (also, you can clearly see where my head;s at right now).The jump, after the jump!
