Hey! Respect your elders young punk!

As an old coot, I've figured out that good riding gear is a worthy investment. Back in high school, there was little more thought to a moto journey than grab key, helmet, and ride. On the ride home late at night it could get darn chilly.

Since when don't hobos wear flannel?

If I knew they were trying to hire a Buell saleman I would have come down.



I'm going to stay home a while and collect. I received a decent severance package that should last a while. Unless something good comes along.

I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing
option.

More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all
I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that
I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly
involves me.

Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when
you realize you're wrong.

I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need
to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with
flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter?

Have you ever been walking down the street and realized
that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are
supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking
back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do
something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and
mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area
thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.

I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

The letters T and G are very close to each other on a
keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I
will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again.

Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and
it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would
magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did
we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or
message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft.

There is a great need for sarcasm font.

Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was
younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the f*ck was going on
when I first saw it.

I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it
actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end
up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that
everyone's laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just
a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm
still the only one who really, really gets it.

The other night I hit a new low at an open bar. I had
already hopped on highway blackout when, inevitably I had to find a
bathroom. Eventually I decided it was probably on the other side of
the bar so I tried to walk over there, but ran into a guy coming the
other way. We played that, Both go left, Both go right game to no avail,
so I finally put out my hand to guide myself past and that's is
when I realized, yup, that's a mirror I just tried to walk
through. And the guy on the other side is me. Even cats can recognize their
own image.

How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each
hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.

I think part of a best friend's job should be to
immediately clear your computer history if you die.

The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm
trying to finish a text.

A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes
to the spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it.

Was learning cursive really necessary?

Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have
nothing else to say".

I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between
boredom and hunger.

My brother's Municipal League baseball team is named the
Stepdads. Seeing as none of the guys on the team are actual stepdads,
I inquired about the name. He explained, "Cuz we beat you, and you
hate us." Classy, bro.

Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street
smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart".

How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you
just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said?

I love the sense of camaraderie when a n entire line of
cars teams up to prevent a dick from cutting in at the front. Stay
strong, brothers!

Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as
in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a
complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an
attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second
lapse)..ummm...Goonies"

What would happen if I hired two private investigators to
follow each other?

While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road
and instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart.

MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5.
Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you
how the person died.

I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get
in the shower first and THEN turn on the water.

Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never
get dirty, and you can wear them forever.

I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

Bad decisions make good stories

Whenever I'm Facebook stalking someone and I find out that
their profile is public I feel like a kid on Christmas morning
who just got the Red Ryder BB gun that I always wanted. 546 pictures?
Don't mind if I do!

Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room
has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so
incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this
shouldn't be a problem....

You never know when it will strike, but there comes a
moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing
anything productive for the rest of the day.

Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs?
I don't want to have to restart my collection.

There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure
you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too
far.

I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and
it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper
that I swear I did not make any changes to.

"Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash
this ever.

I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of
people watching TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will
they judge me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren't
watching this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and
leave the room. Will we still be friends after this?'

I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello?
Hello? Damnit!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine
times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer?
Drop the phone and run away?

I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then
not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

When I meet a new girl, I'm terrified of mentioning
something she hasn't already told me but that I have learned from some
light internet stalking.

I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on
shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.

Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal
cruising speed for pedophiles...

As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate
drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always
hate cyclists.

Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times
and still not know what time it is.

It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood.

I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I
know not to answer when they call.

I think that if, years down the road when I'm trying to
have a kid, I find out that I'm sterile, most of my disappointment will
stem from the fact that I was not aware of my condition in college.

Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know
what do to with it.

Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating
their car keys in a pocket, hitting the G-spot, and Pinning the Tail
on the Donkey - but I'd bet my *** everyone can find and push the
Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed,
first time every time...

It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on
CNN.com http://cnn.com/> and the
link takes me to a video instead of text.

I wonder if cops ever get pissed off at the fact that
everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit.

I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given
Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than
Kay.

The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the
bag, saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other
words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to
think about it, and then estimated that there must be at least
four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I
was eating by myself. There's nothing like being made to feel like a fat
******* before dinner.

Complaining about the weather?
It's just now starting to get to be nice out...the frame won't be heating up and cooking your leg...engine runs nice and smooth...not sweating your ass off in the jacket and helmet.

Oh boy...the complaining...

By the way...I forgot...bring your own chair to the party if you want to sit somewhere above the grass...

RRRRRR....the nice weather is finally here and my bike is in pieces.



As you can see I won't be out riding this Sunday. I will be having a cook out and all are invited. It is a family cook out. Beer, Jello shots, burgers and dogs will be provided.
So feel free to bring wives, girlfriends and kids. I will have one of those big blow up waterslides set up for the kids if the weather permits. Party starts at 1:00 and will end when ever the police shut it down.

Hey all I've been in the garage with my head down for about a week.

JP - feel better - chill, take advantage, you don't get to sit home and do nothing too many times in life.

Jim - hope you find work soon.

Jim - winter maintenance is best done in winter - if that's routine summer maintenance, I can't wait to see what you do this winter.

Shawn - I'm racing this weekend, but lets try to ride next weekend. Maybe down to Jp's

Racing - After sliding the lightningbolt off the track, on its left side, (ripped off the footpeg, bent the bracket, ripped the shifter out of the case, (Jim you were right about the billet shifter,)) "in practice" yes, in practice, wet practice, I just barely made my first race. I was shaken up and on questionable equipment, so times were the last thing on my mind. I survived, had fun and didn't finish last. I went back Sunday after more permanent repairs and turned some good laps for a first timer. 1:35

By Monday night, I had already purchased a track ready 03 cbr600rr, so as never to abuse the lightningbolt again. I know it can do the duty. I just can't afford to repair it again, and there is no support at the track for a Buell.












So, I'll be back at the track this weekend. Hopefully a good report after that.

WTF Tat? I thought you were planning on trading up to that Aprilia?

And so long as we're copy/pasting shit (cough - Fagbolt - cough) Here's one for ya:

A man was riding his Harley along a California beach when suddenly the sky clouded above his head... In a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish."

The biker pulled over and said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I want."

The Lord said, "Your request is materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking; the supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more time and think of something that could possibly help mankind."

The biker thought about it for a long time... Finally, he said, "Lord, I wish that I, and all men, could understand our wives; I want to know how she feels inside, what she's thinking, why she cries, what she means when she says nothing's wrong, and how I can make a woman truly happy."

The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four on that bridge?"
