Hey, I'm just a bit over 53....like 7 years Tranny has been short for transmission since long before gender reassignment and its related terms came in the general lexicon.. Context matters, too, folks.

British Racing Green? Not enough "l"s in "Dulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!" Now Kawasaki green is great! Black? Worst color for summer riding. Basic physics. Black=hot as in burnt-flesh hot!

British racing green is my least favorite color. Why would anyone design a 6-speed with a taller 1st and 2nd? Usually 6-speeds are to give a lower first, closer ratios and an overdrive 6th. Why else?

With you 100%. NU beat Stanford, got by Duke and Illinois, yet Stanford's ranked #7. Meantime, North Carolina CRUSHED both Duke and Illinois, yet was ranked #10. Sports people all work about all kinds of measures but having a stats background, I know that a test subject that has NO failures...

Oh, I don't give much of a tinker's damn about any Big 10 team other than Northwestern. I just thought an undefeated Iowa would make it clear that Clemson and Iowa should be #1 and #2.

Welllllll, Both Iowa and North Carolina lost tonight. Both games were close, though. I thought UNC would either pull off the upset or be blown out, not lose on a blown official's call. Still Clemson was obviously the better team despite repeated bone-head errors--fake punt, intentional hits...

There's so many! A week after I brought home the "Perfect Bike" my wife had a fit when she saw it looked like Frankenstein's monster! I added: Givi trunk with aux lights. Automatic TS cancellers (Gen 1) Powerlet outlets Heated grips Throttlemeisters Wilbers shock and springs Dynajet with...

Some horse somewhere is wondering where his teeth went!

I suggest the "Edmonton Polluters"

He was Harry S Truman, not Harry S. Truman. His middle name was "S", not an abbreviation of anything.

We had a very happy Thanksgiving! My older son flew home from college just for "Mom's stuffing and Dad's cheesecake!" or so he said--lying little so&so! Not that they aren't good, but that was his excuse for a break. Happy to have him home! I made a chocolate cake I hadn't made in 20 years...

Aha! You want FoxFi! That's an app that doesn't tell your service you are using the smart phone as a hot spot. I use it on my Samsung with T-Mo all the time. I believe it works on AT&T too. But being out for 3 days sounds like someplace like....the Bahamas, where "Welcome to The Bahamas!" is...

I don't know how different that is than a hip replacement, Don, but I've had both hips done. It's scary as **** but if YOU prepare yourself correctly and make sure your doctor and anesthesiologist know EVERYTHING about you and how you react to meds, you should be fine. It will hurts some...

AWESOME day here today in NJ! Shirtsleeves and sun in late November! Tuesday morning it was 24 deg.

I dunno. Riding around the highways on DC kept getting worse and worse. I've been down a couple of times, but even going down, landing in the hospital, etc, I thought "Holy ****! This is really going to hurt!" That's the one and only time I've thought "Holy ****! I'm going to die RIGHT NOW!"...

I always have really mixed feelings about boxing and MMA, While I love to watch both, at the same time, I hate to watch two people batter each other. The UFC's claim to being safer than boxing has long been shown to be a lie--a number of fighters have died from it. Yet having trained in...

...and sometimes, there's not a damned thing you can do except hope and pray. About 30 years ago, on a beautiful morning, my future wife and I were commuting from Alexandria into DC on my '81 Maxim 650 when, right in front of the Pentagon, a woman in a big, black BMW with diplomatic plates...

Hey, are we all braggin' (or bitchin') about turning 60 now? I guess 1955 was the magic year, because I hit it last July! "Congratulations! Time for a colonoscopy, endoscopy, echo-cardiogram, flu shot and pneumonia shot!"

Don't forget: HOF player James Worthy was the power forward on that team, and won Helms Foundation's Player of the Year for 1982! I remember the summer of '81, the talk of Chapel Hill was that Dean Smith had recruited this awesome freshman. Of course, it was later said only one man could keep...

Ha! No outlet in the 04 glove box. Got a couple of powerlet outlets I installed for battery tender and Gerbing heated clothing. Thanks!
