Found this pic of my dad on his old Sportster, which many years later became my first bike. If you know me, the resemblance is absolutely uncanny. No blaming the milkman on this one old man...



You'll notice the dead hog carcass on the bike of the bike. Yup, that's what that is. The family business was pork processing, and sometimes a carcass comes in damaged. Instead of tossing it in the rendering bin dad strapped it to the back of his bike, slathered make-up on it, and rode to the bars with it.

All the folks that have met me, now you understand why I is the way I is.
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

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Yup - wow - you definitely look a bit like your dad.  Loved the stories about the processing plant.  Quite an adventure!
Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing; however, they can still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Awesome pic.  There are many funny things like the wet stain under his beer (oops! spillage), the cig and beer in the pig's hand and mouth.  Why are there two helmets (one for him and one for the pig?)  Denim on denim is also great.  As Pops said, "you gotta coordinate".  And the cutoff sleeves are good for air flow.

Too bad I have no supporting evidence to explain my insanity.

Free, you can't grow up with my dad and not learn how to handle shit as it comes  [laugh]

There is a picture that has vanished of dad riding with me on the tank, my oldest sister on the back, and my middle sister on his shoulders. There is no reason I have lived this long, but man, I got stories.
