Yeah. . . none for me thanks.  I need some more time in the Fortress of Solitude.

whatever... with an attitude like that, you cant have any fun
you need to go out and have some NSA rebound bootie

Actually I'm having plenty of fun. . .riding [moto]

I don't really care too much about women at the moment.

badass rides in the living room = furniture   ;D



I am all for having motorcycles in the living room.  If it's a racebike that you don't exactly care about the Krylon paint job, it even makes a great coat rack.  People get a kick out of sitting on them.  They're great exercise equipment, since you can work on getting a good stretch if it's up on stands.

I couldn't get a bike in the house easily.  Too many steps.  I could make a ramp, but really why?  My garage has as much square footage as the house does, and it's heated.  All the house has on the garage is running water and a potty ;D

If you want a complicated install and extract operation, talk to Charlie (Dragsterhund).  He put his bike in his living room while he was overseas.  I was there to photograph the extraction.  It was 2 90 degree turns, both really tight, and something like 8 steps.  When Stillie's bike was in our living room, we had to deal with 5 + 1 steps and making sure we didn't mar the hardwood floor.  [laugh]

I have to say Monsterlover, this is one Issue that scares me with the Wife - Kids

She wants, I don't

I hate Kids, They annoy me, I can put up with friends kids (cause I get to give em back when they cry or shit em selves)
But as a general rule, they shit me to tears, I've talked her down from 2 kids to 1, She keeps trying to convince me, but I just don't know.
We love each other very much, but the kid thing just kills me.
All of our friends have kids, My best mate has 3, but I see how he struggles from week to week to pay the bills.
I don't want to be like that, I'm selfish I'll admit that, and that is not my main reason.

I just can't stand em, I'm not interested in having one.
I can see that this may be an issue in the near future for me as well Monsterlover.
Goodluck with the future, It'll all workout in the end [thumbsup]

when you are 80, you'll wish you had that kid and grandkids to take care of you, thats how life works.

What if I put the sticky side of the cushion on the underside? Would you sit on it then?

I've decided I'm keeping the 675.

It's mainly to piss off IZ.

Not really, but ;D

I'm still waiting for the dealer with my KTM to call me and tell me the title is there so I can go get it.  It's been 3 weeks and I'm still riding the 'umph.

I can't stop liking it enough to trade it in.  It fits me too well.

TJR178 and I F'ing ripped it up yesterday and it was an awesome time!  I'm talking full on badness, hooliganism and squidlyness- tripple digits, a little stoppie action, wheelies down the on ramps (and else where)  I wish I was better at them.  Yeah, I said it.  Lots of lean angle, great curves, strawberry ice cream sandwich and gatorade at the gas station, a couple new (and awesome) roads.

I have to keep this bike.

And get the KTM too.   [evil]

I don't know what I'll do with 3 bikes, but I'll have fun figuring it out.  Actually 5 bikes if you count the 2 old Honda CL350's sitting off to the side ;D

I've pretty well adjusted to living on my own.  Laundry, no problem.  Shopping, got it.  Cat boxes  :-X um, yeah, Im on it.  She comes around about once a week to gather up some more of her things.

Probably this weekend I'll help her move her couch, then I'll need my own couch.

Heading to a HUGE garage sale in a subdivision near my mom and dad's house on the 6th.  Taking the trailer hoping to score deals on furniture :D  I'm sure I'll find something.

Good luck with the furniture shopping.  I need to do some in preparation for when my couches go to the evil one.  On another note, I got the date of tumor removal and that is absolutely relieving.  Refinancing the house is going to suck, I have a really good rate.
