Took a fun little jaunt last night after a few tweaks on the bike and found a lot of debris on the back roads from the rain. Plenty of washout and the occasional limb down. Shiny side up my friends.

Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

hence the 'abortion' comment... Smart cars are horrible... Ever take one for a test drive?
I have, and it actually wasn't that bad. Granted, it was in Europe and I was driving the diesel model. Was kind of cool to look down at the display and see an indicated 86 mpg. |

If the Diesel gets that much MPG, oh that's a win. But the gasoline model gets about the same mileage as a civic.
You didn't think the brakes were crap and the 'manuMatic' transmission was total pants?
Seen that video of the 'busa Smart car... fine it's got mroe go... but hte one I test drove... the brake were shit shit shit... you'd never stop!

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

No kidding. Without pics to prove otherwise, this mythical bike of yours is actually a hallucination from a night of mezcal fueled madness. |

So far, so good f-er!  We are however taking Miles to the dog park in Arlington and checking out an F 350 in Falls Church. In monkey county we are whittling down the deficit by making dog owners pay a $40 per year dog park "user fee". |

I've actually been pricing a few trucks lately. Chevy is offering STOOPID pricing on their 1500s when you go through USAA. In monkey county we are whittling down the deficit by making dog owners pay a $40 per year dog park "user fee".
One more reason why Virginia is better. Although there does seem to be a log of other taxes going on down here... |
