  1. A-E is 124 hours in traffic all by itself.
  2. I'll always be an FZ6 fan. Fantastic bike!
  3. Sitting in a fucking airport on my birthday with three little kids at home wanting nothing more than to hear a story from one of their books. Not much candle left....both ends pretty burned.
  4. http://columbus.craigslist.org/mcy/4508892911.html Truly.... This is what you're looking for. The FZ6 is fast, manageable, comfortable, and protected. I don't understand why Yamaha keeps wanting to create standards that are either castrated or uncontrollable. I wish I had mine still. Btw... Above is not referring to the FZ1. That's a fine machine.
  5. I was very close. Very. I have a new position that has me on far more planes than bikes. Not loving it.
  6. I really wanted to do this one. Didn't because the 13th is my young son's birthday. Now I'm in Dallas all week for work. This will go down as one of my regrets.
  7. Not much info, but looks like two bikes hit head-on. http://www.nbc4i.com/story/25660437/two-motorcycles-crash-in-hocking-hills

    Cigar pro's?

    A drink without a few rocks is a shot. Different purpose.

    Cigar pro's?

    I used to be a big scotch guy, but now I'm bourbon and beer. I love a great bourbon....my go-to is Blanton's and Maker's when the 14 year old bar tender gives me the look.... You know the one I'm talking about. As for Cigars... I'm perfectly satisfied in that $8-$15 range. I generally let the young enthusiast at the shop pick a few out for me. Some of my favorite nights have been cruising up high from Broad to Worthington smoking a nice cigar on the bike. And then finishing off with a nice glass of bourbon on ice.
  10. Hey there.... Any way to make it harder to give neg rep on the mobile? I just gave a new member neg rep by accidentally hitting the "x" when thumbing down. Maybe a "are you sure you want to give neg rep?" Or require a reason.... I don't care much about rep personally, but neg rep is fightin words.
  11. Sorry about the negative rep. I was scrolling down and hit it inadvertently.
  12. Kickstand.... I do this at some stoplights as well. Many parking garages will have a "no motorcycles" sign not because they hate motorcycles, but for this reason.
  13. US Virgin Islands surprises me. Bahamas.... Not-so-much....
  14. Why do some enjoy sailing while others need a jet ski? A jet ski/wave runner is faster, better handling and adrenalin pumping while the sailboat is slower, peaceful, hard to turn, and more relaxing..... I'm not looking for increased heart rate and a buzz from my ride. I'm in it for pleasure....relaxation. Honestly, I've never seen or heard anyone being ridiculed for gear or lack-there-of except for here on OR. Ride your ride and enjoy it.
  15. I've always interpreted the rule that it is if you are being questioned/accused. I've had my car broken into and felt no obligation to say anything while giving my report in front of my house. I'm sure it doesn't hurt.
  16. Pigtails are cute. And chicks on bikes are hot.
  17. I agree with the guy.... I don't know how many times I hear "I bought my first gun, I'm going to add xyz mods to it" or "what mods should I add?". Same with bikes. Change what you don't like, but when you list your mods when you sell it, please know that I don't give a fuck and think the modderer is a tool. "Power commander to squeeze out ten more HP than the 20 I never will use"...."blah blah blah....".... Comfy seat? Sure. Fender eliminator? Ok, I dig that look. Heated shit and luggage? Ok, I'll play. Other speedy chromey skully crossbones gayness? Nope. And Mohawks on helmets also gay (not in the derogatory homosexual sense, but more like you're a fag sense). Long week. Been drinking. Cheers.
  18. I had a great experience with their new bike sales. I called, was given a cash price, and rode my FZ6 in only to be given what I was I asking for the FZ6 on Craigslist for the trade. I was thrilled. Lennie in sales made it all come together. Perhaps I suck at negotiation, but they made money and I was satisfied with what I paid. I'll buy my next bike there if it falls within their inventory list.

    Good News thread:

    My daughter and I are going to do the open water certification next weekend. It's awesome! We took the course over the winter. For your equipment, go to Columbus SCUBA on Indianola right off of 71/Morse.

    Good News thread:

    Work day ended yesterday at 2:00 AM when my return flight arrived.... Today started with a Thurman Burger, new SCUBA gear, a nap, and will close out with the Bare Naked Ladies. A Good Friday indeed.
  21. It's been proven that white people smell like bologna.
  22. So wait a second.... We don't believe the whole baby Jesus came down the mountain with the Ten Commandments theory because we can see for ourselves that things aren't so, but we believe the government's MPG reports over our own tried and true....fill it, drive it, measure it, fill it, divide it proof? I'm pretty sure demons possess thee. Send me a check and I shall cast them out. Amen.
  23. My Nissan Sentra got a consistent 45 mpg in the 90s. Then Al Gore became VP and now we celebrate 25 mpg.
