When the other squid shows up he will call me out but it won't be from riding the green bike.

Names were not mentioned Justin. If you hadn't called yourself out it might not have happened until the other squid saw this thread. That's only because you called him out to me. I did talk to him tonight and he filled me in on the rest of the almost accident information. I can't believe the two local guys I know on here are both SQUIDS. Are you guys going on the squids and posers ride? You will NOT find me riding the green bike without gear on. If I had been working I never would have seen you so this is more proof that unemployment is ruining everything.

I have seen a recent increase of squidly behavior in my neighborhood. Today I was driving down the road when a car turned left in front of me, (Plenty of room.) well there is this motorcycle right behind the car that then proceeds to ride a wheelie right past me once the car cleared the path in front of the motorcycle. The guy had a helmet on but wasn't wearing a jacket; he also had a backpack on like he was coming home from work. SQUID When I get done with this incident I hear about another squid in the area just yesterday who was riding down the same road less than a quarter mile away without a helmet. Apparently his bike is so beautiful he is blinding the old ladies in the area and is rendering their driving skills useless. Said old lady drives right into the back of another car without even touching her brakes within striking distance of squidly boy without his helmet. I don't know if it was the beautiful bike that distracted her or his man beauty although I don't know if that's possibly because he might be 40. SQUID

You is just jealous of the Gunner greatness!

After reading a ride report about someone going down in the curve that was the subject of my OP in this thread does anyone think I should make a shorter OP in an original thread about this curve? I know sometimes I don't read a post if I open it and see all them words. I am trying to get a thread that more people will read; this curve will take people out. Hopefully we can prevent as many people from here as possible from getting bitten by it. Okay, maybe now that I'm not working I might just be a post whore.

Is that the king of internet self gratification? I vote you is winar!

I had forgotten what the original post was about, now I remember. No way did it stay on topic but it was a stupid one so who cares.

I missed Barney but I now know how to talk to women, chewing gum I think. I also know which camera not to be using filming porno. GGrreegggg has an interesting sense of humor; he must be fun to hang with. Did you see I invoked your name in the thread I started about 536?

I think the title of this thread is awesome also. Where you bored at work this morning? Thunderstorms woke me up this morning so I now have a well rounded education.

I caught that thread this morning, it was hilarious. Why did it get pulled? Does it make me cool to know what frosting like a cake means or pathetic? I also know why that tab is there. I wonder if everyone who was mentioned in the thread knows about it.

Shit. I should have known better than to get involved in an internet discussion about politics. I am bored and need a job more than I need to write a thesis. You win on wearing me down on shear volume. We will be able to point counter point each other all day. We can also bring logic into the discussion from outside sources not related to healthcare but it will all be moot. I can rebuke your assessment of my failed analogy but you are correct it will not address your OP. If you have a contract with an insurance company you have the legal right to make them honor it. If said company fights all of its obligations and wins unfairly their business will go away to a competitor who honors its contracts. You are free to take your business elsewhere. Government’s role is to see that the contracts both parties agree upon are handled correctly. This is why we have a republic country not a democratic one. (Explaining what that means and how it applies will take forever and I ain't gonna.) Merely stating that I don’t believe it’s the government’s role to provide our healthcare is not what you’re looking for but that’s as simple as it gets. If the government is responsible for our healthcare are they also responsible for our deaths? If so I want to sue them for allowing my grandmother to die from natural causes, the government is responsible for it damn it where’s my money? You want more absurd, should they be responsible for our births?

Oh yea, I forgot about different rules down where he is from. What happens up here can't happen down there because he says so. Forgive me since I am old its ease for us old guys to forget. Gunner hasn’t changed and it was at least four years ago when I had a run in with him.

I have seen this before so I don't need to go watch. He will call you out to race him then he will threaten you with physical violence because you won’t race him then ban.

I will agree that cooperation works best in some cases; however that depends if it comes about naturally or artificially. If you don't cooperate with others people who do will put you out of business quickly. If the government makes you do things that defy logic they can, have and are putting businesses out of business. Insurance is a form of cooperation that has a very good track record of its value to the masses. National defense is another that we can’t do by ourselves, our highway system is another. (Except for the Amish, I hate those fuckers using our roads but that’s a whole different rant.) If healthcare wasn't socially engineered the way it is now competition would make it look much different than it does now. I don't think as many people would be without it either. Someone would come up with a business model that will fill the voids where there is money to be made. When people start to look at healthcare as a form of their own happiness and make it a priority for themselves instead of a government handout costs would be easier to control. Go back to my auto insurance parallel, if I could drive anyway I wanted caused as much damage as I could sustain and the government paid my premiums how long do you think it would take for the system to be broke. Healthcare insurance is a business if you think you can do a better job than the companies currently in business go right ahead but I guarantee you will be back here complaining about the government’s involvement not allowing you to make any money. If you were responsible for making the decisions some of these companies are making you might be making the same decisions if you are responsible for your company’s bottom line. Remember insurance is a business and you can take your business elsewhere. If you make enough wrong decisions another company will come along and give you what you want if they can make money doing it.

Gunner is a child who can't control himself. He will continue on and on until he gets banned. I have had words with this internet tough guy much to my amusement. If you guys go over there he will bite on your trolling threads. He knows everything and has done everything much better than you have.

Is this Gunner you're talking about? I've had a few internet run ins with him. Back on an old board that isn't around anymore.

The federal government is here to provide national defense and infrastructure. I don't need them to provide anything else. State and local government have a different role but still they have nothing to do with being responsible for me. Healthcare is NOT a right; if you value your health then it is your responsibility to pursue what happiness it gives you. This healthcare crisis is once again another problem brought on by the governments own need to social engineer. The government creates regulations that forces insurance providers to pass the costs of the regulations on to everyone. How would you like it if auto insurance companies passed on the cost of high risk drivers on to you? They currently do but they are also allowed to penalize risky behavior. Currently the auto insurance industry has the ability to rate their risk of insuring you on several factors and can charge you based on your risk. The government is not forcing them to give their services away. Driving is no more of a right than healthcare is. When a business is forced to give away services without compensation because if they don't the government will take away their ability to do business you get this problem. There are much deeper topics to this problem than just this but all of them point back to government intervention. This is the internet and none of us are going to solve any problems here but the constant need of our federal government to social engineer is the reason for most of our problems. I don't comment in a lot of these threads because they rarely stay on topic and I can understand why. There are several other areas of our economy that the government has fucked up right now which goes to my point of its inability to do things correctly but bringing them into this topic although it reinforces the argument takes it off topic.

Nice meeting you also. Ammo is sold and delivered.

Oh no you guys don't I can't make the next two weekends, no fair going without me, knock it off, stop, laaaa, laaaa, laaaa laaaa. I can't hear you. Okay, I guess I don't own the roads, you may go without me. Have fun, be safe, and come home to tell the stories.

Thanks for fixing the post for me GGrreegggg. Tod (With one d.) Jnor, Where are all the other 255 lovers out there? Why aren't more people talking about it? Nice new pavement, few intersecting roads or driveways, what’s not to love? When I make it down there to ride the roads again 255 will be in the route.

There might have been three turns with gravel in them but none were a surprise because you could see it ahead of time. There was some gravel right in the middle of the lane on straights in weird spots nothing to worry about just odd to see it there.

Last day for this or I am selling it to wheezle750. I really want some 9mm for this. (Must be a registered user before this thread started though.)

Rusty, it wasn't my ride to post, I didn't know the route, pace, stops, how many riders, leader’s ability to not get lost, etc, etc. Inya, I know what you want to say but on this road he had nothing to do with it, in fact he was way in the back close to bringing up the rear. He was not responsible for the pace of this ride and I wasn't either. I rode fourth spot until we got to this road and never lead all day. Justin, I have seen a few posts about people going to ride this road soon and I thought I would give a fair warning about it. Now that I know about this turn if I'm leading a ride I will slow the pace just like Adam did during the Coshocton ride on his got ya corners. We got lucky with no real damage but waiting for a life flight kills the day for everyone on a ride. Riding a little slower in spots and making it home is way more fun. Can't a moderator fix the multiple picture posts for me?
