  1. ha!

    my better half is a doctor "hospitalist", went to some party, and they were handing out stool samples...at...the...door.........

    Yup, that disgusting plastic jar, labeled "stool sample", and inside was this tiny bar stool, about 2" tall!! 

  2. bought a trakphone for my kid (12) to use when he is out around the neighborhood.

    I got..lots..of phone calls from area 216...I'm profiling, granted, but without really going out on a limb..they sounded Black, late teen, early 20's. I guess whoever had this phone # before me was a player..ignored at first, then answering politely saying what I typed out blah blah. Quite a few said sorry wrong number, but a number of assholes hung up, or questioned the sincerity of me..

    so,  I started answer his phone "Sgt Standalone (no, really...'stand alone') , Precinct Two Homicide".....calls dropped off pretty quick after that, and they ALL hung up

    You can, and I do run amber rear facing LED's that do not exceed the rated candlepower.

    What you must avoid is doing something that looks other than a REAR of a car. i.e. two white lights, two yellow making it look like the front of a car. Same applies to the front- you can't put red lights (two laws cover that if you want the codes, both LEO and this one)

  4. Vintage Bike...Need to keep it as original as possible. 

    Good idea, but honestly you may love it, but it has low collector value. why the angry response about what to do.

    If this were a concours quality 60's something...sure.......but...you want to be on the road again? Grind it off, weld on new. sheesh

  5. Grind off nut and weld new one on but that's just me....

    Gave everybody green 1s

     

    thats exactly what I'd do, OP would be done by now. Guy down the street at the gas station, excellent welder, he'd charge me...five buck and supply the nut as well. 

  6. I don't totally understand how he's a moron, had he not been a state trooper. If some dude wants to run 95 then so be it. You downshifted and cracked the throttle to race him, to give a glare for speeding, because he was passing you?

    I have four friend LEO's

    They  can't break the speed limit without cause. this guy was likely running to his exit -shift over

    he's not "some dude" he was a trooper going nearly twice the posted speed limit all his lights off, including headlights. 

    I cracked the throttle NOT to race him, but to insure I wasn't going to become part of his grille. 

    I was going to give him a glare for reckless op, not because he was passing me. 

     

    with all the internet respect I can muster,  I'm not sure how what I wrote out seemed like I was racing someone going 90 on the freeway. Been riding on the street since 78. Never had an accident on the street, I just dont pull out in front of cars. 

    It doesn't take an imagination to figure out what happens if either of us were paying just a tiny little itty bit  less attention. Different ending. 

  7. Went for an early morning ride thru the CVP (cuya valley park)

    left medina, taking 271 north to 303 then scenic home.

     

    almost as soon as I got on that section of 71 my shoei face shield start flapping..wth

    pulled far far over, hit the  four ways,keeping my eyes on the rear view as I fix it. Not much traffic. Its 7AM or so

    get geared up, still looking in rear view. a white car about  three or four  miles back is there in the right lane. A speck.

    I look, he's waaaaaay back there, I signal, pull in accelerate fairly hard but nothing abnormal, I am still looking rear view every few seconds. I figure the guy is about two miles behind me (or should be if he's going 70)

    Hell, this car is bearing down on me NOW, I'm guessing less than half a mile behind me and closing rapidly, downshift, hit it hard- glance as speedo as hit 3rd. (I'm clicking past 80 and still accelerating  then in mirror (white car is gone, over taking in middle lane)

    I lift my shield and lean back getting ready to cast a glare at this moron going probably 95++MPH

    .........its.....a....state......trooper....... unmarked outside the decals and push bar, no light bar. 

    we make eye contact and I slap my helmet "d'oh style" and let off the gas figuring its speed tax time, he looks at me, smiles and keeps on going....whew.

    State patrol is on Fenn road, next exit for him, must be donut time. 

  8. yeah, thats right. 

     

     

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/07/03/superhero-husband-hogties-burglar-leaves-him-in-the-yard-for-police-and-goes-to-work-as-planned/

     

     

     

     

    On Wednesday morning, Cole set his plan to break into an area home into motion. However, things didn’t go according to plan.

    While attempting to break into the home, Cole was “bum-rushed” by the homeowner. The homeowner, who was described as a “superhero” by his wife, then hogtied the suspected burglar, left him in the front yard for police and went to work.

     

     

    hog tied, f'ing HOG tied! Hilarious!! I can only guess what the cops were thinking when they rolled up.

  9. We have been profiling since we climbed out of the trees (or were created pick on)

    profiling is what has kept us safe, allowed us to meet friends, create bonds, and keep from getting sucker punched.

    anyone who doesn't profile watches bob the builder and thomas the train and wets themselves. 

    As parents we teach our kids to profile. I'm in a racially mixed neighborhood...I profile all the time. You walking with kids, probably ok, you walking down the middle of the street not moving for cars..probably not, you smile and wave, probably nice, you cast a look, probably not.

    mix in color for shits and giggles. 

    its harder to spot obama voters honestly

  10. House is nearly a hundred years old. Closet by the front hall is era  typical. It is 2' 6" deep, TWO feet wide, with shelf, holds, exactly, two helmets and various gloves on the shelf, and exactly FOUR jackets- boots on the bottom. 

     

    and yes, helmets left outside are spider magnets. Shaking, bumping on something wont dislodge. You risk everything leaving helmets outside.

    Ever read about a fatal crash, they were one mile from home, 20 mph, when suddenly they flung their bike under a truck or train, no explanation ever made public?

     

    fucking spiders- in the helmet, be sure
