I thought that was a good name myself didn't realize it meant that.
Figured it was in a ripsnorting tire burning wheelie popping roost shooting kind of way.
"ripsnortin'" has been around a lot longer than the present druggies, they just hijacked it.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive body, but to skid in sideways - body worn out and screaming: Woo Hoo, what a ride!"
I've heard it used in bull riding circles, didn't know about the druggie thing.

Hey Rip, It means what you want it to mean. The druggies will burn out and our very own Ripsnorter the "slickster" will still be around. I'm all for it.............besides, what do they know any way.
i have heard the term "ripsnortin good time". i didn't realize it was about drugs though.

Thanks

I figured it was some obscure reference to now totally obscure to me Nascar racing, which I won't watch with freakin' Toyotas running in it.
Thanks for that explanation 'cause I wouldn't have got that in a million years.. Oh and BTW never heard of that drug reference either, but the dial turned over 49 today , so I am getting long in the tooth for that stuff
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..
JC: Wait a minute. 49 isnt even mid life yet. Another 5-10 years and you can have a mid life crisis and everything. $9 is just getting the kinks worked out.
Ripsnorter,ripsnorter over here means ( you bloody beautty), which is a term of endearment for a mate who has done something good,stuff the druggies anyhow,

Alan, I am well aware, having worked with, and met quite a few Aussies (and kiwis) that the slang down under is a bit hard to follow for North Americans, but in this case, the meaning is almost the same up here, so far as I know.
there are circumstances, however where some Aussie sayings just don't translate well.
Nevertheless, it's great to have ya around!:lol:
