  1. Oh wow! The Bolt could convince me to like cruisers... and Yamaha! Very nicely done Yamaha!

    3 shift

    My current favorite beer is Breckenridge's Pandora's Bock. Third Shift has nothing for me.

    3 shift

    If you like "mainstream" beers, you'll like it. If you're thinking that you've found a craft beer by Miller, pass on it.
  4. And that is AFTER spending upwards of $50 on stuff to send with them, like 2 boxes of tissues, 200 #2 pencils, 2 boxes of 24 ct crayons (specific brand) and so on... Ugh...
  5. Who sells Schuberth? Anyone locally?
  6. Sprint is working on going to LTE. Just not in Ohio so far.
  7. Probably about the same.
  8. THAT is why I haven't done it yet! A Ninja 250 can last someone a LONG time with some care and maintenance.
  9. On the Ninja 250, many highly recommend installing the Racetech Gold valve emulators while the forks are apart. They are about $170 though.
  10. I though that Vroddave=insane by definition?
  11. That Third Shift stuff was too "mainstream" tasting to me. I've been drinking Breckenridge's Pandora's Bock lately.
  12. Well shoot, then. I'm not "a welder" but I can can do a perty decent job at welding!
  13. I'll chip in a few $ for the cause. The owner of the dealership where I work is riding the 100 mile loop this year, too. I suppose I'll be tossing a few $ his way, too!
  14. It looks as though it did have a catalyst, not 100% confirmed though. From a Ford Trucks forum: The catalyst on the newer trucks other than the particulate filter, is a NOx catalyst.
  15. Don't get him started on the number of trees that get cut down to make paper targets!
  16. Even a blind squirrel gets a nut once in a while! Sounds like a good plan!
  17. What fun is that? It's always fun to rub your eyes after cutting peppers! (Yes, I have done exactly that!)
  18. Thanks! Fixed it! I'll have to be sure to show it to her, just in case she would happen to log in to see what I'm posting! Also, don't worry about any stray bullets from members on here IF you ever ride with any of us again, because we spend time at the range honing the skill!
  19. Weren't you pretty tired of that anyway, and considering finding something else? Or do I have you confused with another poster? It's (almost) never cool to be let go from a job, but many times it ends up being something better that you end up with. I hope you find your dream job!
  20. Honing skills, to minimize the chance of that stray bullet hitting YOU when a bad guy causes a problem. I know that you must have not been around much violence in your life, and honestly I haven't either. The difference is that I KNOW that evil lurks about out in the real world in which I live my day to day life. With the economy being bad, unemployment being high, drug abuse being so high, the chances are greater by the minute that each of us will encounter someone wanting to rob us, or a business that we may be patronizing. Whether you want to believe it or not, there are people out there (that almost certainly acquired a firearm illegally) that will kill you just for a few dollars to get their next fix of meth, or whatever their drug of choice is. My wife works in a pharmacy and hears about all the pharmacies around our area getting robbed for what they sell by prescription. It scares me to death thinking about how likely it is that it could happen where she works. It's also no secret that drug abuse is pretty high in our area. She is now considering taking the class and learning more about firearms so that she can also protect herself in such an event. I'd like to see some stats on the number of guns out there vs. the number used in crimes, and how many of them are acquired illegally, vs those acquired legally. Common sense tells me that I know what the stats are like...
  21. Phil who? I don't think I'l be able to make it, which really sucks, I really like the route that John has planned!
