Oki,
Call it a baptism of fire. If you can mend up and survive and hang around and continue to participate in some of the more fun type stuff, you may be shown some deference in the future.

Josh has been contributing here for some time, and anyway I know that his wife will be regularly kicking his butt on account of he don't deserve her, so I go easy on him. ; )

I live in Texas, not sure the locals would accept me as a native. Been down here since '81, met a girl and stayed. Born in Ohio, raised in Western, PA, I'm one of them thar "damn" Yankees, but I've assimilated pretty darn well, on account of I like God, family, good friends, the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, hot rod American motorcycles, guns, trucks, campfires, horses, Rangerettes, red meat, barbecue, loud motorsports, the Bushes, cowboy boots, hot Summers, pretty girls, and even rodeo, plus I worked for four years in the oil industry. Have never been a Cowboys fan though. I'm still a Steelers fan all the way.

Wait, did I list "horses" ahead of "Rangerettes"? Lord help me! What was I thinking?

Some of my good friends have names like "Sanchez", "Rodriguez", "Quinonez", "Palladino", and I hear tell that my ancestors were booted out of Europe under dubious circumstances.

I'm all for improved border security. Just not the extreme measures you propose. I'm looking for a kinder-gentler approach in general. : )

Maybe robots with tranquilizer guns? joker

I am going to say thanks to all of you in the Buell community that have sent me emails and well wishes after my get off. Recovery is going to be slow and the prediction is 70% recovery of mobility in my right arm. I still have to go back in 3-4 weeks for a bone graft from my hip to make up for the price the road took so that means atleast one more surgery. I have odd flashes of pure agony in my right pinky and ring finger that I am told are good signs. Otherwise both are so numb that nothing can be felt by them. The offers of parts to get my bike running are greatly appreciated and I have time to sort through and figure out how to rebuild her. The reality is 3-6 months before I can even think of riding again. I definately look forward to the day I am back on two once again. It was no ones fault, but my own for not double checking the security of the canister at our last stop like I had done all day prior. Its a custom setup that just needed more security and a longer headpipe. Materials were on order for a new headpipe so I can only blame myself for not trying harder to make more secure attatchments. Not sure when the front P clamp vanished but it isn't attatched to whats left of the headpipe nor the engine block, It was there when we left Prescott. All in All I will ride again and my XB shall run as well.

Wycked, glad you're healing up. I know that it can sometimes seem a long road to recovery, but you'll get there. All I can say is have patience, and do what the Doc and PT's tell you. Personally, I'm looking forward to riding again, having missed most of last year. Maybe we should start a Purple Hearts Fund to get riders up and riding. Anyone have a '9R I could borrow for a while?

Wycked, sometimes those doctors talk too much as I found from experience when I was 26 years old.

Left leg compound fracture tib and fib, snapped femur. Skeletal traction for 10 weeks and 3 days, not to mention months in full pot. The quacks said I'd walk with stick(s) and a limp from then on. They couldn't have been further from the truth bless 'em. The only thing that really bothers me 17 years on, and I mean bothers me big time, is if I get a kick in the shin. That freekin hurts dude!!!

When they hit you with that 70% deal think hard about the physio involved. Lifting a sand bag for exercise. Working a bull-worker. All will help you to a full recovery in the end. Convince yourself it's in your head - not your elbow - and before you know it you'll be walking on your hands and doing hand stands with claps.

Great luck to ya mate

Get well wycked!
My folk came over thru Ellis Island. I've seen copies of my grandma's ( great to the ? ) signature. Potato famine, wars, get a better life.

Millions of illegal's though, just screws everyone. The Hispanic citizens get paid less by crooked business, since they can get "undocumented workers" for under legal wages, and use threats to keep the workers in line. "you don't like working with no safety gear?, I'll send your butt back to...." lose/lose all around. Not knocking immigrants, please understand, we need a better funded immigration system, rational guest worker program, etc.

You Can't mine the wilderness. I might be there on my Stumpjumper.

I propose using the armed forces, as an ongoing training program. Rotate troops through the border states, learn the best ways of defending a border from criminals/terrorists, have them learn from the Native American border patrol guys. Combine that with city fighting practice in an adobe potempkin village & the troops will be better at the kind of conflict we seem to have in the future. seems like win/win.
I could of course be wrong.

Been there Rocket, June of 2002 I was in a serious car accident that fractured my femuer and opposite ankle. Was supposed to be in a wheelchair for 3 months and crutches for another 6 after that. was out of the wheelchair in a month and a half and walking without ctuches another month and a half after that. I intend to prove them wrong. Just being realisatic at the same time. My limp is only apparant after real long rides ar very cold days. And yeah, if you can figure out why the shin deal is such a pig, I want to know cause your right with that.

Mikel-
Good luck and a speedy recovery! I'll see you in a couple of weeks at the AZ Springfast.

I picked up my Blackbird from a guy who went down and crunched his elbow. Couldn't work and didn't have disability so he sold it for what he owed on it. I told him that it was worth more than that but he needed to get out from the loan and insurance. I paid about $3,000 less than book at the time and if I would have replaced the scratched up parts it would have cost about $1,000. I figured I could put up with some scratches for $1,000.

OK guys, I feel partly responsible for the heated debate with my mine the border joke.

It was just that... A JOKE. And in poor taste at that. I apologize. I'm not against immigration (I'm Hawaiian, German, Welch) but we cannot continue to have this porous border.

I will however not advocate the right to peaceably assemble on American soil depicted as vigilantism. I invite anyone interested to go to www.minutemanproject.com for the real scoop from the mouth of Mr. Gilchrist. They are not going to make contact with anyone. Their plan is a spotting mission to demonstrate publicly that our government does not have the resources allocated to deal with the problem.

I'm guessing a lot of you don't live 10 mi from Mexico like I do, so you have no perspective on how bad the problem really is.

Last month, I went and picked up two bodies in the desert. They had expired from dehydration 60 YARDS FROM ONE OF OUR GUARD BOOTHS and it was horrific. They were too scared to ask for water. Last year my friend, with the Yuma County Sheriff's picked up 38 bodies that had laid out there for a year. That same year, 40+ people were found locked in a tractor trailer and left to die by their coyotes (Smugglers). Central American Gangs terrorize and take pot shots at our Border Agents.

Guys, the problem is worse that you could imagine. When your son or daughter, in my case, my fiancee, gets strung out on mary jane, crack, meth, insert drug here; most of it comes across right here in AZ. The gangs bring it across unimpeded. In Oct of last year, an illegal was picked up with lbs of C-4 explosive. He said we was trained and paid to go blow something up in LA.

I'm a Marine, my friends are Sheriff Dept, Border Patrol, and US Marshals. The general public doesn't see the problem for what it is...I do.

I'm not against immigration. I am against people paying coyotes to get here and left to die in the desert. I am against drug runners bringing tons of drugs into America at will. I am against terrorists having access to thousands of willing immigrants who will do ill just to make it here.

There is a better way. Seal the border, institute a better work program (I picked watermelon, only made it two weeks, don't want to do it again. The average American won't do field work for the pay), and better the legal immigration process (I've been to naturalization ceremonies and its one of the most touching experiences you'll have). That is the only way. Otherwise, our border will remain a dangerous crossing for both us, and the illegals...

Josh, I'm sorry that you misunderstood my comment. I in no way meant that I'd ever shoot an illegal; they just want a better life. I will however not hesitate to pull the trigger on a South American gang member sent here to stir up trouble with the minutemen. If I witness them shooting at the demonstrators, I am then fully justified to return fire...

Charlie -- you're right on all points, of course -- the difficulty is that when you say that the feds don't have the horsepower to address the issue, the issue is so very poorly defined --

the concept of having an extremely porous border, declaring the illegals as just that, and then talk about their rights under the constitution (and driver's licenses, education, the list is long) show just how the lack of a coherant policy hurts both groups involved.

Given your descriptions (and those of others), the situation is long passed the point where it demands addressing -- kinda surprised it hasn't been raised as an issue during the campigns (with the exeption of a very concentrated block of voters and other directly impacted persons)

here's hoping it DOES get the attention it deserves

Awareness is the only way Bomber. That's what Mr. Gilchrist is doing. I applaud him...

One thing most Americans, namely the ACLU get wrong is that illegals should have civil rights. Well, as they are not Americans they should not; however, they are entitled to human rights as the Constitution guarantees. Unfortunately a federal judge has already messed that one up. Another victory for the ACLU...crap

judge's opinions are reversed all the time (though it's difficult, as it should be) . . . .

this one doesn't appear to be all that hard to get right -- if both sides of the aisle would simply agree to do right, rather than act politically expediously, it'd be handled PDQ . . .

ah well, a boy can dream, yes?

Bomber...You are most likely to never see the topic of illegal immigration (Latino in particular) in a political campaign. The politicians avoid it like the plague as they are intent on gaining the support of the Latino votes.

The politician's preferred position is that it is the Fed's responsibility via the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Just a casual observation from a 30 year Californian. Incidentally, back in the early 1970's a friend of mine was an INS agent here in Wisconsin and he had one of the best arrest records in the Country for quite some time. Trust me, he wasn't arresting Canadians. LOL

yeah, like THAT is ever gonna happen ;-}

Blake- you're smarter than that! This Goldberg guy is as sneakily vague in his misassertions as any of the liberal dream-weavers out there. This guy makes broad misstatements without any citation at all- this nonsense exists both on the far right and the far left. none of us should allow ourselves to 'pigeonhole' each other to a whole grouping of precepts based on our dealings with previous follk of similar cloth. Hey- the radical-"environmentalists" (not really true environmentalists at all) bring it upon themselves, as well. they usually are hugging trees while trying to save tibet and legalize 'herb'. These are the fashionable 'flavours of the day' for many bored people with misguided agendas. BUT- just because a person wants to see endangered species protected, or be able to take his kids fishing somewhere that they can actually EAT their catch, does NOT make that person a tree-hugger, or left-wing. guys like 'jonah', here, tend to polarize and genralize whole groups in much the same way that tree-hugging trustafari (trust-fund brats with dreadlocks)do, usually to very soecific end. somehow, i get the idea that mr. goldberg has a darked objective in mind. hey- maybe i'm wrong. once anyone gets too far left or right, they've lost. anyway- i paranthesised() and *ed my own arguments to "jonah's" misstatements. you, of all intelligent folks, know better than to take this kind of drivel at it's own mismerit... anyway, her's that piece you linked to, and within it, parenthesised, are my arguments against his 'statements':
"Jonah Goldberg- April 01, 2005, 9:38 a.m.It’s the End of the World as We Know It......and, yes, I feel fine. As does the U.S.It's the end of the world, and I feel fine The bad news is that a new United Nations report says the world's coming to an end. But, first, some good news: America's doing great! Seriously, forests are breaking out all over America. New England has more forests since the Civil War. (yes, that’s because NE was seriously deforested for the shipbuilding industry in the late 18th century and early 19th c.) In 1880, New York State was only 25 percent forested. (that is not and never has been a fact. The Adirondack park alone comprises nearly that much, and western NY forests were, and certainly still are covering more than 30% of the land. NY has never approached any danger of being below 30 % forestation) Today it is more than 66 percent. In 1850, Vermont was only 35 percent forested. ** (also not at all factual)**Now it's 76 percent forested and rising. In the south, more land is covered by forest than at any time in the last century. In 1936 a study found that 80 percent of piedmont Georgia was without trees. Today nearly 70 percent of the state is forested. In the last decade alone, America has added more than 10 million acres of forestland.**( Actually, jonah is factoring in what the US has replanted, far and away most of it to replace harvested timber- oops!) **There are many reasons for America's arboreal comeback. We no longer use wood as fuel, **(actually, more than 45% of Americans DO use wood for fuel)** and we no longer use as much land for farming. **(nope- and very little ex-farmland has been reforested. We lose farmland primarily to suburban sprawl) ** Indeed, the amount of land dedicated to farming in the United States has been steadily declining even as the agricultural productivity has increased astronomically.** (maybe we should stop subsidizing foreign farmers and support our American farmers and ranchers)* *There are also fewer farmers. Only 2.4 percent of America's labor force is dedicated to agriculture, which means that fewer people live near where the food grows. The literal greening of America has added vast new habitats for animals, many of which were once on the brink of extinction. Across the country, the coyote has rebounded (obviously, this is a mixed blessing, especially for roadrunners). ***(OK- tramp note here: the eastern Coyote is genetically identical to the Red wolf, which was, by 1980, extant only in captive polulation. Our flourishing coyote population is refilling the niche, in the east, left by the extirpated red wolf, and in the northeast and Midwest, they fill the void left by timber and gray wolves.)** The bald eagle is thriving.**(define “thriving”)** In Maine there are more moose than any time in memory. (WHAT??? Whose memory…Li’l Kim’s??? these nebulous vagueries are dangerous tools for havy-handed agendas.)** Indeed, throughout New England the populations of critters of all kinds are exploding. In New Jersey, Connecticut, and elsewhere, the black bear population is rising sharply.** (AGAIN< rising to approach a fraction of the original population.) ** The Great Plains host more buffalo than at any time in more than a century. **(yeah- so? The end of the 19th century saw bison nearly extirpated in north America- they had nowhere to go, in numbers, but up!)**And, of course, there's the mountain lion. There are probably now more of them in the continental United States than at any time since European settlement. (also, NOT true. In fact. The eastern US is devoid of Cougars outside of the everglades, and they used to be cosmopolitan throughout most eastern states. Of Course, eastern cougars were rarely referred to as “mountain lions”, but as “Panthers” even though they are the same genus and species, the Eastern {everglades, now} carries the ssp. Name “coryi”- so the semantic loophole that this ‘columnist’ is using is plain old BS)** This is bad news for deer, which are also at historic highs, because the kitties think "they're grrrreat!" **(actually, Cougars would do most ecosystems a world of good, as the Virgina Whitetailed Deer is enjoying dangerously high poulation throughout the east,a dn it’s only a a matter of time before their burgeoning numbers and range create the latent link for CWD {chronic wasting disease}to cross the country and wipe out the existing populations- did I mention CWD comes from the alien, European aurochs variant known as ‘beef cattle’?)** .In Iowa, the big cat was officially wiped out in 1867, but today the state is hysterical about cougar sightings.** (OK_ that’s a sensational vaguery. What is he actually stating?)**One of the most annoying tics of the media is always to credit the notion that human-animal encounters are the result of mankind "intruding" on America's dwindling wild places. This is obviously sometimes the case. But it is also sometimes the case that America's burgeoning wild places are intruding on us. **(um.. them critters wuz here first…)**Anyway, there's more good news, of course. According to Gregg Easterbrook, **( WHO?)**air pollution is lower than it has been in a generation, (yes- particulate and CO are down. The scary news, however, lies in fluorocarbons )** water is safer (WHAT? MTBE contamination is epidemic!)**, and our waterways are cleaner **(HOW?)**." ...

Dang Tramp, and I was beginning to cheer up about our countries environmental outlook. One thing to look at too is the reforestation he is talking about-yea they are replanting trees, but all of one kind can create a bad situation later on. If the waterways are cleaner then why does Ohio DNR put a fish consumption advisory pamphlet right in with your fishing license? This guy's article could start a whole range of discussion on population controls, keystone species, corporate pollution, private dumping, and whether money ties into it or not.
