My Fiance and I are going to be getting married at a speedway. The ceremony will take place on the start/finish line. We are trying to come up with some ideas for an arbor. It has to be something that can stand on its own and not be staked down. Does anyone have any ideas that we could use? How we could decorate it? Our colors are black and white with touches of checkered flags.
Thanks for your help, I will see if they will allow smaller water containers. They would not allow us to put up a tent using water barrels in case of rain.

The life of a warrior

The artist struck the canvas and a legend was born
The engineer drew a line and designed a champion’s heart
The crafts man smelted Iron, and carved something eternal from bags of sand
From the fires of the furnace,
Through the hammers of the blacksmith,
A warrior emerged from the belly of a factory
A captain, dawned his helmet, and gave his commands
To the halls of competition,
He fought and he bled,
The rage he felt erupted from his heart and thundered through the stadium
The very earth shook with the sound of his screams
As pavement broke, as rubber melted under sweltering heat
As fires erupted from unbridled passion deep
Lap after lap he battled and soldiered on
To checkered flags then certain death
To obsolescence for everyone to forget
Farewell, great warrior a life cut short,
Farewell, to the champion with the four rotor’d heart
Here lies the champion 787B
Another like him there will never be
Gone too soon perhaps you’ll say
But there’s just no room for the legends of yesterday

I have some (=

I have one on my left hand. It’s a little boy’s head in a flower pot. It is in memory of my sister.

I have another on my for arm. It’s a siringe. It is a symbol of my drug addiction that I over came.

I have one on each side of my pelvis bone.. On is the Avenged Sevenfold bat.. and the other one is the Slipknot 9 point star.

I have one on each of my shoulders. One is two checkered flags crosses with the number 22. This is a symbol of my dad. The number 22 is his racing number. The other is an Iron Maiden skeleton.

I also have a spider web on my elbow with the number 31. The 31 is my brother and my boyfriends football number.

And I have some paw prints on my right arm. Its a symbol of my dog that i’ve had since I was 2 (and I’m going to be 17 tomorrow) (=

i cant think of gifts to get my family this year, i would love ideas. here is a little about each one:::

MOM: she is funny, and nice, and smart, kind of like a "wise a$$" (not in a bad way), umm she works at a doctors office…she likes hockey and nascar.

DAD: he has a really good heart, and he is a recovering alcoholic. he is very sentimental, and enjoys nothing more than being with the family.

BROTHER: he is a jokster, and LOVES racing more than anything. he lovessssss nascar and he actually races cars himself (not nascar tho). last year i got him a baseball cap that i got embroidered to say "walker racing" (his last name) with checkered flags, he loved it.

I’m looking for a place to get a Honda CBR1000RR painted with an airbrush design. I want something that looks really original that will turn heads. Every site I look at though always has the same stuff (flames, skulls, demons, tribal, etc.) Like I said I’m really looking for something more original, maybe a HR Giger inspired mechanical type theme…something different. I saw a bike in my hometown that was custom painted with a little bit of EVERYTHING lol, from checkered flags to snake skin to spider webs all worked into the same job and it looked amazing. I want to find somewhere that will do that. I’m not extremely artistic and could use somebody who will help me come up with a really good, original look. Any suggestions?

I kind of want a tattoo, knowing that I probably won’t be when i’m older I’m starting to lose my risk taker touch already to be honest lol, I kind of want a tattoo that would describe a risk taker. Something that’d make me look back and remember, in a very simple form. I consider myself huge risk taker when it comes to anything, i’ve gambled my lifesaving numerous times (not physical gambling) I’ve gambled my life more enough times in races(this i stopped fully). I’m kind of an adrenaline junky but it’s weird because that’s all i used to live for driving, and i hate rollercoasters but i love skydiving, I don’t really want a dice or something, I was thinking maybe a stupid saying like ‘all or nothing’ in latin with small checkered flags as quotation mark almost kind of thing and maybe image of adrenaline in the background

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/73/Adrenaline.svg/800px-Adrenaline.svg.png

but that’s jsut my idea any input / suggestion would be great. I still don’t know where I want it put either.
I’m sorry it sounded like that to you Leasha, but I mean it’s a tattoo, you get it to remember something that you want to remember, and I just want to remember how I was able to tackle anything. Sure, I’m proud that I was able to tackle anything, but I wasn’t trying to brag, it’s not like i posted on P&S or anything, i looked up latin translation, i think it’d be good, so i was wrong in that sense.
I mean everyone has something that they’re extremly proud of, and this is only Y!A i’m just seeking suggestion, it’s not like I know you or you’re even in my social group, so who am i trying to show off to? nobody, right?
wait, looking back, i never said latin’s stupid, i said some stupid saying like "all or nothing" I just used the word stupid cuz w.e it is a stupid lifestyle if u think about it, thus me being less risktakerish.

Thanks for input though

I want to get two checkered flags because my husband is a race car driver. I wanted to get it on my low low back right above my butt…I want one checkered flag on each side with a word in the middle, in japanese. I can’t decide what word I want…I want it to go with the racing theme…I thought about "endure" so it applies to my life also…endure to the end…but was looking for other ideas
