Inquiring minds want to know...cuz I couldn't find shit

You both are on the map. I did not get an error.

Just realized niether of those are in your size...ill shut up now.  

 

So you basically have to put a tire made for the rear of a bike on the front of yours?

Yeah....you see the problem now.

Apparently those are odd sizes in just about anything. I can get a front or a rear, but not a matching set in the sizes I want. Really frustrating around tire time.

So I currently have Avon Storm 2's ony mean streak. The front is toast and the rear isn't far behind. So I'm in the market for new tars.

Right now all  I can find are Metzlers, which aren't bad, just not sure how they will fity riding style. I want something that's gonna grip in the corners for a 600 lbs bike. From what I read, they are nice for cruisers that go straight, and well, that's just not my thing.

front: 130/70r17

Rear 170/60r17

Thoughts about putting a different size on there?

Collective brain trust assemble! 

I will be in Shaker Heights on the 18th, and then Akron on the 22nd. Don't know how close either one of those is to you.
Traveling through Akron on the 15th. This probably won't work too well as I'm traveling to Trumbull county that day.

Will have to meet you for lunch, as I will be in work only car. So I won't be able to deviate too far off route.

We'll be there. Good place to eat and start drinking before the CBJ game that night.

I was trying to figure out if we could squeeze it in before the game as well.

So how does that work? Are you responsible for contacting parents? Or does that fall back on the teacher/administrator?

I would also say 4th.

Why is there a kickstand???

First there is no data I have seen that says corporations would still not move overseas. 

Second lets look at some numbers.  10% tax.  Person making $25,000, you take $2.5k on top of all the other taxes you still have to pay.  They now have at most $22.5k to live on, to save etc.  Second person is making $200,000.  You take $20,000.  They still have $180k.  Which one of these has to choose between food, shelter clothing because of the taxes?  Not the person making $200k.  What good is it to the economy, to our society to have 1/10 of the low income taken by taxes?  Is it fair to make someone have to choose between those things?  I certainly don't believe so. 

Maybe your definition of fair is your hand is your hand and if it sucks screw you we as a society don't give a crap. 

When you overtax people or corporations, they begin to move money offshore, as soon as, it begins to cut into the profit margin. Or, they find a loophole in the tax code that prevents them from losing money. When a person loses money, they try to plug that hole regardless of stature in society.
I don't dispute your numbers. But shouldn't that give someone making $25k more incentive to work harder/smarter to make a better living?  When did this nation flat out settle for $25k? When did that become the normal? I've been at $25k, and yes it sucked. But I didn't want to stop there.

When you begin to put the tax burden of the entire county on the top 1% of Americans, whether it be corps or individuals, those people are going to thumb their nose to the rest of the nation and stop producing. Liken it to a group project in school. You had the smart kid wanting to succeed (rich), the average student just wanting to pass (middle class), and the underachiever (poor) who thought school was dumb and a waste of time. The underachiever knew the other two would carry the weight of the project because they wanted to pass. So the smart kid, and the average student had to take on the extra work of the underachiever. Making it subsequently harder to reach the end goal. Sure they probably passed, but eventually, those kids would get burnt out from doing all of the work. The next project, or the 3rd project would likely have different results.

I'm quite far from your last assumption. People will always need a hand up, and I'm all for giving them one.
However, once a person makes a conscious decision to stop growing, learning, earning, because they get more from the government, my hand up now has become a hand out. Eventually, I will retract my hand because I feel that no effort is being made to stand up and walk along side of me.

The rich will continue to get rich, and the poor will continue to get poorer, because neither side is willing to compromise.

You could probably say the same thing about our meet and greets.
