  3. The most convincing argument against mass concealed carry (in my mind anyway) is that the average joe citizen doesn't think about cross-fire in crowded areas. Then again, that would probably not be the most likely place for a crime to take place, so... whatever. No one's mind is going to change on this issue. Wasted paper and ink.

  6. Collecting government workers' compensation isn't very bootstrappy of you. I guess social programs work if you're on the receiving end, eh?

  7. I would agree that the track is a good place to learn. And the instruction at the track is VERY good information. However, this notion that the track is the ONLY place to learn proper riding technique is just incorrect. Sorry. I have been fortunate enough to ride with some ACE riders over the years. I have picked their brains on many occasions. The stuff I have learned at gas stops and by following their lines through technical backroads has been priceless. And it happens to be the same information taught at trackdays. There are no top secret riding instructions that you can ONLY hear by going to a track. The same information is available in many books, sportrider.com, and in the heads of countless riders who are more than willing to share. This is in no way a slam on trackdays or formal instruction, just pointing out that the same information is available from multiple sources. Now, if accelerating at WOT out of corners and hard braking into corners is what gets your blood pumping, I will agree that that type of ridng should be confined to a closed course. Straight line speed just isn't my thing. I am more interested in smoothly, carrying quick corner speeds while using proper cornering technique. While not for everyone, it can be safely accompished on the street. I know many highly skilled riders that have been doing this type of riding for years. If you can get the right type of group together with strong ride leaders this type of riding is great fun. If you're curious, we do plenty of 300-400-500 miles rides every year. Lots of skills overlap between riding street and track, however there are some notable differences. Being quick on the track does not automatically mean you will be a fast street rider (the opposite is also true). I have encountered more than a few experienced track riders that for whatever reason, just were not comfortable at the front of the 'fast' group on a street ride. In fairness, I also know plenty of track riders that are fantastic street riders.

  10. Then the word fly has no vowels. Don't cry. You gave it your best try. By the way, I was going to a fish fry and happened to look up at the sky. Now, I wouldn't want to pry or sound wry, but my teacher told me that Y is sometimes a vowel. Now I know you're thinking that my use of y is a bit predictable. But I can assure you that using Y as vowel is no myth. So I hope I didn't mess up the rythm of your hymn, that you slyly hum on the way to the gym. :gabe:
