It's amazing what kind of problems a simple computer reboot will solve.

Management has their "favorites".  Those chosen few will fail to share

passwords that are needed when computers are rebooted.  When the

"system" goes down and a reboot is needed, it's always at 2:30 am,

and no one in house has the needed passwords.

The boneheads are supervisors, for not insuring changed passwords

are shared with those who need them at a moment's notice.

My work rules:

1. 8 hours for them.  16 hours for me.
2. Do not do more work on another person's machine than that person normally does.
3. Being short of help is not my issue.  I'm not responsible for scheduling and staffing.
4. If you want me to do two people's jobs, it requires two people's paychecks.
5. In order for me to do this extra work, what is it that you do not want me to do so that I have time to do that?
6. There is absolutely nothing you can do or say to make your supervisor any smarter.
7. If you bring attention to a problem, you will be the one assigned to fix it.
8. You get two breaks and a lunch.  Don't cheat yourself out of them.
9. I do not have the authority to make decisions that screw things up.  Management gets paid well to do that.
10. If the person who called for maintenance is not present when maintenance shows up, we will come back when they come back.
11. Once you have put the machine in position to complete the task and the operator is not present to run the machine, starting the machine for them will only insure they will never come out of the break room.

All of the things that happen have have been happening

since the beginning of time. It is just covered more with

the internet and the sensationalism of todays media.

It didn't happen to this extent.  Things of this

nature were very rare.  The world is becoming

a more dangerous place, and it will get even

worse.  You haven't seen anything yet.

.

If you are not sending your gauge

off to the Bureau of Standards,

how do you know it is off, or the

ones you are comparing it to is

correct?  Do the ones closest to

the same reading win the prize?

.

.

Very cool.  Very cool.

Would have liked to see a higher flight

putting it into the middle of the pond.

.

The Ohio Department of Insurance would maybe

like to hear about this.  They license the agents.

Consumer Hotline:     1-800-686-1526

Fraud Hotline:           1-800-686-1527

If they say they want to destroy the gear, do it

for them before you turn it over.

.

I'm happy to see three parallel twins on the "fastest" list.

That gives me hope.

And 570 hp?  What in the frigging frig would you do with

that, that didn't involve a straight line, or maybe circling

the globe?  Talk about getting your Iron Butt certificate.

Can you say 2000 miles in 24 hours?

.

.

Maybe it's time to chuck it all

and go live in the woods.

.

Bring back public hangings.  High noon.  Courthouse lawn.  Every Wednesday.  Bring a lunch.

.

The lock was never cut.  Right there is the same one

that has always been on there.  (scuffed up and rusted

with a little help from a file and being left in water, and

paid for with cash).  I've had no break-in.  Nothing is

missing.

If there is a record of ammo purchase, I sold it.  I needed

the money for a bike farkle.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

.

Some of that looks interesting.  I try to stay

away from the touristy areas, Conkle's Hollow,

Cedar Falls, Ash Cave.  Too many Rangers

and sight seers for me, unless I'm in tourist

mode.  You have to really watch the traffic

around there.

.

And now, 80 is the new 60.

.

Lol even 25.... It's crazy how being out in the open not strapped in bombards your senses and how quickly we get used to it.

And now, 80 mph is the new 60.

.

If your swingarm can allow enough space to bump

the rear to a 140 series, the options definitely broaden.

With a Katana rim and a GSXR 600 brake torque arm

a 160 can fit.  But, I don't want to go that route since

it's a learner bike, and I don't want to sacrifice handling

with a wider tire.  Not that I would have the skills to

notice.  It's not a sport bike but I want to ride it like one

to the best of my ability when I'm on the fun roads.

Unless someone knows something more than what's

been posted so far, I think the Avon will be my choice.

I'll ride to work and have the Pony put them on tomorrow.

.

Well, I checked out all tires that were suggested here.

Pirelli Angel ST and GT, plus Diablo Rosso II and Sport Demon. 

Angels do not come in my size.  They only stock a Diablo front

and a Rosso rear.

Michelin Pilot Road 4, 3, &2's, same story.  Pilot Street, and Power,

same deal.

Here's what they do have, that they suggested to me.

Bridgestone Battlax BT-45   Front: $104.99  Rear:  $107.99

Dunlop GT-501G  Front:  $89.99  Rear:  $132.99

Avon / AM26 Roadrider  Front:  $86.99  Rear:  $94.99

The Bridgestones are closest to stock.  I'm leaning towards the

Avon. 

Feedback from you fine folks?

.

I have a Thermarest pad you can have for free.

They're just not thick enough for me.

PM sent.

.

Sounds like a good day to just go back to bed.

Sorry to hear it.

.

I can almost guarantee you're a better cook than me. 

I like to cook, but I also like to have a fire extinguisher

in the kitchen while I do it

It seems as though you are mistaking your smoke alarm for a timer. 

.

I felt like I was flying, at 45 mph, when I first started riding.

.

That was just plain stupid.

Black Beach Week,

Black Bike Week,

Black Bikers Week

Black Fill-in-the-Blank Week

Atlantic Beach BikeFest

It's all the same, listed as a major African American motorcycle rally

originally called the Atlantic Beach Memorial Day BikeFest.

I had to look at photos to be sure it wasn't for the purpose of celebrating

black motorcycles.  One website mentioned all were welcome.

Does anyone have a hankerin' for some chittlin's and greens?

.

How long would it take to get lynched from

the mere suggestion of a white bike week? 

CNN would be all over that.

.

Iron Pony is close to the path I take home from work,

so I find myself stopping in there about once a month,

if not to purchase, just for the pleasure of browsing and

looking at bikes I've only read about and seen pictures

of.  I think the store itself is a rider's fantasy land.  No

need to go many other places to check items off of

your Christmas wish list.

Marc Iafolla and Josh Lynn are always helpful whenever

I'm trying on bikes for size.  They take their time to talk

about what may be a good match for your needs,

dreams, and fantasies.  These guys are a big part of what

makes going there a pleasant experience.

The parts counter.  I never feel rushed there.  They've

always been more than helpful and full of great advice.

Even the keeper of the gate at the security desk has been

pleasant.  I'm just happy I don't have to drive half way

across the state to get there.  It's a one stop shop for me.

For icing on the cake, Schmidt's Sausage Hous had a

truck outside the door one day last week.  So, I was even

able to have my dinner there after browsing through the

store.  You can't beat that.

.

I want to do these things.  I have to

get some camping gear and plan

way ahead for it.

.

So, somebody tell me what the solution to this was.

.

...the two ridges that have been created

are two inches apart. This is on a 130 tire. 

If it was a 130/70 R17, we could slap it on the rear of my bike

so I could go down to Hocking Hills and burn those ridges back

down into the proper tire profile, for you.  I would return it all

better, minus about 250 miles of life, and maybe a little "burnt"

odor.
