OKay I'll admit I'm mechanically challenged. I assembled the carb wrong not once (which cost me a two weeks down time and a new set of rings) but twice. I thought sure I had it that second time but Norman (god love him) posted a set of pics showing the right way to do it. And even though I had seen them before, I had enough experience with the throttle mechanism to finally realize what I had done wrong. I had flipped the brass pipe upside down.

So that is my oh yeah moment. I expect the bike to run like a scaled dog now. If not, It goes onto the lawn and we toast marshmellows on it.
