Once, when visiting Vail Co (years ago) I asked a bus driver a question (I don't recall the question, but it had to do with getting something done before heading up on the slopes).
He told me to "go to the area near the ticket booth and ask the Twinkie."
"Twinkie?" I asked.
"The mountain Hostess in the pink Vail uniform."
It took me a minute to realize it was a play on words,

This is true. I’ve been struggling with intermittent starter issues on the springer for the last week. Lucky I could ride the twin cam
