  • A belated Happy New Year

    Happy New Year to all!

    We were able to celebrate our new year in California with these fine musicians:

    All Birdville Marching Band

    Never could pick out our daughters and only saw one of them one time while we were there... so I'm sure they had a great time.
    lol


    Saying goodbye to last year is SO easy and best wishes to all for a MUCH improved 2011.

      I Hope...

      for some sanity and intelligence this year. Not for me, but for our political discourse!

      Current:
      2006 Yamaha FJR1300A - "Orion"
      2007 Honda CBR600RR - "Twitch"


      "Life is not a journey to the grave, with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body; but rather to skid on broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming:

      WOW - What a ride!

              Yeah the best "correction" it has made for me so far was changing fenders to genders...sorta changed the meaning of my post.

                I can see where that might make certain posts a little uncomfortable.

                I usually sabotage myself with dyslexic fingers (nevermind getting help from a computer program). I don't know how many times I've told someone I'd see them alter...

                  Yep, looking for a new fender has a TOTALLY different meaning from looking for a new gender.
