  1. So am I! I hated homework, andonly did enough of it to get by. If we had this option, I could've skipped the homework all together!
  2. That COULD include you at times, but not this time!
  3. These are the kids that are going to be running our country in the future. Why not teach them now? Members of congress are "bought" by lobbyists, and corporations, why not buy some grades?
  4. What are you talking about? Big Back to the Future fan here. Thanks, now I have to watch the DVD's...
  5. I was about to ask that also! I thought for SURE that this would be in DQ by now!!! I'm also surprised that the thread of stuff that got moved to DQ is still open! Wow!
  6. on the protection vs. staying a little cooler! Maybe one day I'll move up to leather. First, we have to buy the wife some gear so that she'll feel safer out riding, and therefore will ride more! I bet she's got about 15 miles in since we got our endorsements!!!! I forgot to mention when talking about my gear, Ialso have a couple pair of gloves, one is Firstgear winter gloves, waterproof, and warmer, but still not all that warm. The other pair are fieldsheer mesh. I'm thinking about getting something with hard armor in them though. Next season maybe...
  7. Yeah, you do tend to like the sounding insults...... Just sayin'.... Ok, back on topic...
  8. Could have been sooner if it had not been for Time Out! Has anyone said they're glad to see you back? Didn't think so! At least you will take the kidding!
  9. Fixed.... What has to done to REALLY help our failing economy? Spend more! Stimulus package! Cash for clunkers! Uh, no thanks....
  10. Yeah, it's about like myself yelling through the phone at the cell phone company, to a guy that spoke very broken english, trying to find out where the replacement for my wife's phone is! Glad to hear that jcroz faired better than I did!!!
  11. No comment otherwise? :wink:
  12. Thanks Shitty. That's a concept I got from around here very early on. It's just ridiculous that someone has to spell it out! Nice sig quotes, BTW... Back to the OT: I have a Fieldsheer Aquasport (I think) textile jacket. Very comfortable, and very warm. Nice shoulder and elbow armor, just a pad in the back. I've been thinking about replacing the back pad with armor. The venting lacks, and it gets a little warm on hot summer days. I also have the Fieldsheer Mercury (again, I think) riding pants. They are warm, and have NO venting. Both have removable liners. Since I got the jacket, I haven't been out of the driveway without it. The pants, I usually just put on when I'm going much more than just down the road. Wrong attitude on the pants, I know. I just pray that I never need them when I don't have them on. I also wear my 7" high steel toe workboots when riding.
  13. A couple friends and I saw the scene of a major train vs. semi truck collision several years ago. It was late at night, and a VERY eerie sight. That much steel all twisted and mangled. Unfortunately, this was way back before digital cameras, and none of us had a camera of any kind. The incident was on SR 37 south of Granville, semi was coming down the big hill, couldn't see the train in time, or couldn't get stopped, pushed the train right off the tracks!
  14. Why do you douchebags keep use my word: fucktard? I think I'm the one that gave jcroz that name, I'll have to go back to the other thread and check.... jcroz: I'll lay it out for you. MOST of the riders on Ohio-Riders strive to be responsible, by keeping their bikes legal, licensed, insured, and wearing All The Gear, All The Time. After being around Ohio-Riders for a while, I would take everyones harping on you about having your bike legal as good advice, not just bashing on you. If you don't insure your bike, keep it off the road. All of this stuff has more to do with a persons attitude about riding than it does ANY of the actual stuff I've mentioned. It's a fact that someone that does all the stuff right, is going to be a safer rider than the guy that thinks he doesn't need to. Got it? Now let the flaming resume....
  15. MOST here aren't too uptight to take some joking, and advice. Just sayin'....
  16. I have everything on Medium quality. Runs decent there. I think my 8800GT is the weak link still. 4GB ram.
  17. Oooo... I need to watch those when I get home! Wish we could've made it....
  18. There is something seriously wrong with you (not like that's not a widely know fact around here anyway...)
  19. Does that mean you got hypnotized? Wrong thread... Take this back to your own (nearly epic) thread...
  20. Common sense isn't so... well.... COMMON!!!
  21. Looks like his foot probably hit the bumper of the jeep or something. OUCH!!!!
  22. Should've put a third period at the end of the third post... Just sayin!
