  1. Actually that was one of the first things that crossed my mind: wearing the uniform in pic with the crown could be an endorsement photo (not unlike the AF dude who appeared in a video for a non-profit), the deer pic with non-uniform items on, that eyeliner is probably out of regs too. If it weren't for the fact that the powers that be weren't too busy beating off to the pics they might care ;-)

  3. Anyone else think it's pretty shady that as part of the divorce, Zimmy's wife wants a life insurance policy taken out on ZIMMY and payable to her? Someone's banking on him getting whacked.
  4. Which is a shame, because nakeds look bitching and all the supersports you see riding around look the same.

    Syria

    Every day I'm a little more embarrassed that Boehner is from Ohio.

    Syria

    In all seriousness though, I'm down at Ft. Sam Houston doing TDY at SAMMC and every time I see a guy with prosthetics walk by (which is often) I just think "there's no way in hell I want to even start down the path that might lead us back to this again." We're 0/4 on middle eastern interventions, let's play the odds here. There's a reason every other nation in the world is checking out on this.

    Syria

    No we use nukes to let the radiation destroy the chemicals. Cmon man!
  8. The counter argument would simply be Russia has these prisons and still has these crimes.
  9. I knew there was a reason I loved you guys. As soon as I heard this my first thought was "well that just saved us a lot of money"
  10. I LOVE how the next customer just pulls up to the window like he's about to get served after that shit.
  11. Not gonna lie though, the idea of a .45ACP pocket pistol is pretty sweet.
  12. Yep, this is how it was nearly 4 years ago. Odds of audit? Not too high.
  13. Agreed. This is how unemployment is already handled. Check 5 boxes on a website every week declaring you meet the requirements, get a check.
  14. This was a reference to the last guy who came on here complaining about something. You wouldn't understand
  15. Does Rick Roush give a military discount? This will severely impact my opinion.

    Syria

    Here's to wondering if chemical weapons in Syria becomes Obama's WMDs. God help us if a single US servicemember dies in Syria eventually.
  17. I officially agree with everything HotLead has said after that picture...
  18. Agreed. The only way to settle this is to have Brian and HotLead post pictures of their wife/girlfriend's tits. OhioRiders sign must be held by said tits to prove validity.
  19. Shit happens on used stuff bro, I wish it was different. I bought a CPO Subaru from a dealer and the filters looked like they had been in a coal plant chimney and the brake pads were basically just metal on rotors. Their inspection process was supposed to cover these things. After a year going back and forth with Subie, I just decided it wasn't worth the hassle over $70 worth of parts and replaced everything myself. Lesson learned: 70-point inspection means they just look at shit and go 'yup that looks worn out.' sucks to feel duped but in the scheme of things could be worse.
  20. Does the beef have a pedigree?
  21. You're correct, heat increases wear. http://canyonchasers.net/shop/generic/tires.php "Many riders still believe that running the max psi number listed on the sidewall will ensure you'll get the maximum life out of your tire. But as tire's have evolved this is no longer the case. Running max-pressure, or too high pressures can actually cause the tire to wear out faster. Yes, you read right; keeping pressure higher will actually make the tire wear out quicker. When a tire is over-inflated (and by over-inflated we mean, higher than the manufacturers recommendation) you make the contact patch smaller because the tire is unable to flex as much, this focuses the wear onto a smaller surface, increasing heat and wear. While testing one particular sport-touring tire we ran the tire-manufactures recommended pressure, which happened to be the max psi. The "touring" tire was destroyed in just over 2,000 miles. We obtained a second set, ran the psi at the bike's recommended pressure and literally doubled the life of the tire (riding the same way on the same roads as the first set). So, the morale of this story is to stick to the bike manufacturers pressure recommendations for best results."
  22. Where do you get the idea that max psi = max life? In cars over inflated tires cause them to round out like a motorcycle tire and cause excessive wear along the center of the tread, rather than distributing wear evenly across the tire. You diminish the life of the tire by over our under inflating. Most cars have recommended pressures issue the doors and most tires have recommended pressures on their websites. I would assume this applies to motorcycle tires as well: over pressured rounds and stiffens the tire, minimizing contact patch and wearing a thinner area at the center of the tire faster. Correct me off I'm wrong here. Fwiw, I run 36/36 in the monster, which is the recommended pressure from Ducati.
