Oh yeah, I can smell it. Barbeque. Some of the best. Served up and consumed by some of the finest people one could ever meet.
It’s the Gathering Of The Fools. Essentially, the Saturday closest to April 1st, a bunch of us biker-types are invited to the Houston area where Hotglue and Flamingobabe open their home [...]

I’m sure by now that everybody’s heard about the massive pet food recall. Essentially, there is one maker that manufactures over 100 brands of “wet” dog and cat foods. Information is still coming in, but apparently rat poison contaminated a key ingredient in food packaged between December 1 and early March. Possibly millions of pounds [...]

The temperature’s up.
The humidity is opressive.
The occasional cool breeze reminds me there are opposing forces at play.
Electricity is in the air, and the night promises interesting things to come…especially to the west.
It’s time to ride.
I’ll see you on the road.

There’s an old tradition among the long distance riders. I’ve no idea where or how it started, but it did. Basically, a small bell is hung low and forward on your machine. It keeps the gremlins off.
Yep. I carry one.
The gremlins are hungry. This one is about worn out!

Y’all (that’s a technical term) may have gathered from my writings that I can be kind of rough on cell phones.
My current phone has fallen off a cliff into a lake (in the pocket of my heavy leather jacket while I was wearing it of course), slid 50+ feet down a concrete bankment (fortunately it [...]

A new story…

Regardless of how you or I feel about the drug war, the thing that is not debatable is that the drugs are out there. With the current price, regulations, and taxes on cigarettes, the handmade kind of the five-leaved variety are actually competetive in price.
Interesting, that. Scary too, considering the sheer effort, Constitutional dilution, and cash [...]

Sunday was a “wrench day” for the Dallas/Fort Worth area Texas VRCC. These are always a good time. A bunch of us get togther, usually by meeting for breakfast or lunch or something, then we work on motorcycles. New or less mechanically inclined riders get a chance to learn something about how to work on their bike, [...]

One of the more unpleasant tasks I’ve had lately is to try to expain our workflows, design, and procedures to the IBM smucks that for some reason think they know how to run a newspaper. It’s scary really. They ask questions, and if your answer doesn’t fit into one of the 2 or 3 predefined [...]

Oh ugh. It’s that time again.
If ya’ll would just buy about a million books, it would make this chore a whole lot easier!
