Well organized robbery? Bring someone over expecting to see a bike at some random house and then jump them for the money you told them to bring? Pregnant women have had their babies stolen/cut out for less on a CL ad lol. Ok that wasn't really funny, but it is unfortunately true. There are some weird people out there.

I know a lot of you go to Rule 3 for bike night so I thought I'd pass this along. Groupon has a special going on where you get $20 worth of bowling, food, etc for only $10. You have two or three days left to buy it, but the voucher is good for a year. When you join to get the deal, I just ask that you use my url that I referred you so I get a bonus for you joining This is my special URL: http://www.groupon.com/r/uu27090371 Let me know if it doesn't take you to the Rule 3 deal going on. It's on the main page though.

Yeah they said that about my tetras too. The tetras seem to be doing great with the goldies though. I have chinese algae eaters (well one now sine the other just died) and he keeps the tank pretty clean. I just hate to get a bigger tank. Ok, maybe I will pass on the angelfish lol.

Right. I have a 10 gallon right now with a few tetras and goldfish. I would likely only get one or two, but I know I do need another tank. That's why I wanted to get a smaller one to put the tetras in like I had planned.

Do they get along with goldfish and tetras? If they do, I may be interested. Of course I have been trying to find a 3-5 gallon tank lately for some other stuff. I have a little one gallon, but the filter I got is too powerful. Poor fish were getting sucked in and then blown back away by the air pump all at once lol. They were exhausted!

I didn't realize how many people on OR knew Mark and how many were also on RO as lurkers lol. I'm really glad I posted up over here to pass on the news to those of you who knew him.

If anyone is going from the central ohio or southern ohio area, let me know. I'll meet up with you. Figure it's about 3.5 hours from my place on the slab.

Cross post from Ride Ohio from his friend Dan: The calling hours are this Wednesday from 5pm to 7pm at: Szabos Funeral Home 1360 5th Avenue. Youngstown, Ohio.44504 The burial will be right afterwards. I am not sure of anything else yet other than his Brother Rex wants everyone to ride to the burial service together, so I guess it doesn't matter where the cemetary is...if you are at the service you can just follow along. I hope many of you can be there to show your respect.

Wonderful pictures! I would love to have full size copies and I can pass them on as well. Email to saralynn518@yahoo.com please

Ok, well it sucks finding gear for women. My jacket is a man's jacket. Something ridiculous like XXXL just so it would fit but the arms are too long. If I try to find pants for my ample hips and butt, forget about it. They will be like 2 feet long on me. My raingear pants are super super long. Hell, maybe I'm just too short. All of the women's gear at the Pony is sized crazy. The girl there told me that it's European sizing. Where normally I could get an XL, I can barely even get my arms in an XL jacket there.

Not sure if many people know this, but finding gear for larger and/or fat people isn't too easy. Finding gear for larger women is even more difficult. Gear isn't made for people with hips or boobs. Depends where and how you carry your weight I suppose. The rest are just either cheap, lazy, or stupid.
