  1. Once again.....your perfect little world which you seem to find few faults with anything.
  2. Were you to pick a smoking or non smoking area in a restaurant "if given the choice" which would you go with? People have the right to smoke, but people also have the right not to be succumbed to breathing it in a privately owned, state owned, sports complexes, arena's. stadiums, and federal owned or corporate owned establishments. There are good, better, and best places to light up and enjoy a cancer stick....just not in places where the majority are not smokers. I have ZERO issues with a person choosing to smoke, but should there not be some boundaries set forth in which to do that beyond being alone or in your home or vehicle? I don't recall any teachers or professors lighting up in the classroom, there is no longer smoking on practically any hospital campuses "unless designated" across the country, I don't recall seeing anyone smoking while at Church, or how about during court cases or in any federal buildings. It should be out of respect as much as for other obvious reasons, everything in life is not a free for all and do as you please. The planet we live on is just fine, people on the otherhand many times are not......we are far from a Utopian society.
  3. Sure would have been much better for the rest of us, that is for sure.
  4. Last I checked, 2nd hand smoke is a health hazard "and smoking is just plain disgusting", and don't even get me started on those that litter everywhere with their cigarette butts. There is no such thing as a non smoking section when there is smoking in the same building, the smoke just cannot be contained nor can the smell. Restaurants should be the one place where nobody should have to be subjected to smoking, although I persoanlly feel that true bars should be allowed to do whatever the owner decides. You go into a bar knowing it is a bar, and smoking and drinking for many seems to go hand in hand. I did not agree with how the non smoking laws went down, there needed to be some exceptions in there for sure. Motorcycles are not going to be banned or up to a vote for the public, so even saying such a thing is ludicrous and not even a good comparison at all. I believe that you are of the mindset like too many are becoming these days, where pretty much anything goes and it is acceptable "as long as it does not affect you negatively". If it feels good and you enjoy it.....do it....right? Duanes world......the perfect world.
  5. Bad choices typically lead to bad consequences.

    Other options to think about, I am quite the fan of Hunts Moto Lodge and I stayed at the other as well when they were the Cherohala Moto Resort. http://www.cycleresort.com/ http://www.huntslodge.com/
  8. It is all yours if you can make it or still want it.
  9. Break in period is only in your head, go ahead and ride like it should be ridden.
  10. Is there still a warranty, and if so how would that apply to another owner?

    I would imagine that it would Tim, I like to use Scout on my iPhone and if I am listening to music, will interrupt over the music when a turn or other info is given.
  18. I put that right in the same boat as psychology.
  19. Apparently Zimmerman's wife is a bitch as well.
  20. Even though my Son is going to be in the Army this time next year, we are keeping him added to our insurance as well. I also did some adding to my life insurance and long term disability, can never be too prepared. I officially moved over to my Wife's insurance, hers was better and less expensive than mine was this year "and probably going forward".
  21. When we get a ballpark number of who is coming the closer that this gets, I will see what I can do.
  22. 106,185 have signed up for Obamacare, that is hilarious for many reasons. These were the hard and verified numbers just given, not something that I just googled.
  23. I guess if a living breathing child cannot live outside of the womb yet, it cannot be a child? So after 4 days "which the zygote period ends" you are saying that most abortions are occurring? The fetus stage occurs at approx 9 weeks, and I can assure you that TOO MANY abortions are still occurring much after that. Most documented abortions are occurring at 8/9 weeks, but after that the growth and development is occurring pretty quickly. My sister is the National Director for Heartbeats International, so she knows a thing or 2 about what is "really" going on out there. If a woman chooses to make that horrible decision "for whatever reason", she is the one that ultimately must live with that. There is always going to be an example of what many will consider a justified reason, but once again they are the one who must live with the consequences either way.
