My idea was to have a daily commuter bike, since it's bit difficult to install a hard bag on the Monster, I was thinking on the lines of a 'chinise' less than $1500.00 bike to move around, those usually have a wty of about 6 months and if taken care off might last a year or two . . but, if a MTS 620 is to be found[sadly the MTS620 Dark was sold], then, a 'trunk' can be installed and I can carry my stuff with me and maybe, maybe the wife . . .

You are planning on transporting your wife in the trunk? 

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Still on an upward trend!!!

I kept getting a "bump" to go see my brother before he passes...ignored it until this morning

Went to the hospital this morning at 5:30 am to see him, he's unhooked but still breathing/beating

He reacted to my being there or I guess it was the motor control reaction to the stimulus of voice and touch

wanted to see him without his wife or her family there crowding around....

just the two of us, told him I loved him and would miss him in my rough months ahead

told him it was ok for him to step off and move on, that I needed his help on the other side to keep me here on this side a while longer

travel well dear brother, go home, you have earned your rest


Went home and called my benefits center and got my ID and Group number for my new insurance coverage for 1/1/13...I am in and confirmed

no more HMO out of network/no coverage bullshit...that is one huge relief...Sloan Kettering is completely covered under my new plan


congrats in the insurance...and on the ticker rising in time!

do you feel like you got a sense of closure from saying that to him?

I can't really say one way or another, it made the family happy

and I did it more for him just in case it was something he may have wanted

my best memories of us together won't include this morning

.............they are the two of us walking the long grass of the mountain meadows at sunrise on my Aunt's farm in the spring and summer

shotguns crooked in our arms flushing pheasant, looking over the broad valley below as the daylight crept across it....lighting it, warming it

waking the distant world to its existence

always wondering what we were supposed to really be doing with our lives

we were refugees of our upbringing, seeking a sense of asylum that always eluded us

he's heading home now

hopefully to a place we never found on this earth
This is an insult to the Pez community
