Oh yes, I forgot, we use plex too, a number of guys at my shop have huge servers with movies and shows on them. Great app.

I'm up in Michigan, but I quit Comcast Cable over a year ago. I bought a $40 digital HD antenna from the local electronics store (Radio Shack) that gets all of my local programming for free, all channels are in real HD. Some Tigers games are broadcasted, but I actually love listening to the games on AM 950 anyways, in the garage, working on the bikes and having a couple beers. I get all the news and misc shows that I want (what decent shows are out there anyways) and we've never looked back. I have internet for $35 a month, just one line into the house for my modem, and I have a single wireless router going off of that, which works not only all of our phones (3 Samsung Galaxy S3s) but also my Roku 3. I have a few subscriptions, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and of course the Motogp app on my phone, which I plug into the TV on race weekend. between netflix and Amazon I watch all of my favorite shows like Dexter, etc. Amazon used to be the better site, but Netflix has really stepped it up in the past year, si I went back with them as well. With all the free apps on the Roku, it's been well worth the $100 bucks I spent on it. So many great features on it, too, like streaming Youtube videos, using my phone as the remote, etc. I even just ordered a Chromecast for my room, and if it works well I'll get some for kids rooms. The kids and I (I'm a single father with custody of 2 kids) are completely happy with what we have. My internet/tv combo used to cost about 130 a month, and I just can't justify that right now. I'm about 60 a month now, I feel it's a very good deal.

It looks very clean, do you have an asking price in mind?

Hey, it's the Bananabagger.

I love it. Great win Sunday, I about threw my plate of pancakes when Marquez low sided. Such a sweet victory, in front of his home town. I admit, I got just a little bit emotional. Amazing, the passion of those fans. Great to see the Yamahas on the top of the podium, and the sour look on Padrosas face, that look of, "shit, Rossi is only 1 point behind me now in the standings. " This really is a special helmet.

The Otterbox Defender case I have protecting my Samsung Galaxy S3 phone held up perfectly when my phone fell out of my pocket while riding my motorcycle, going around 40 mph. Not a scratch. Best 33 bucks on Amazon I ever spent.

Having trouble editing my posts for some reason. I think it's the security settings at my work computer here. Sorry for any redundancies. Thanks, guys!! It's funny, I have 2 bikes of my own, but I keep grabbing his to make little runs to the store and laps around the neighborhood. Everythings done on the bike, with the exception of the steering head bearings, which I have but haven't dove into yet, and the clutch kit, which should be here by Thursday. EBC plates and stock Yamaha springs, people have compained the aftermarket springs make the lever pull too stiff. Still waiting for word from some of my family members about when they're able to do my daughter's birthday party. I'm trying to have it on a different weekend than the 27th like we had planned. I would really, really like to get down there one last time this season and ride with you guys. I'm not aware of any connection, I could ask around. We're ramping up some production, ahem.

Still waiting for word from some of my family members about when they're able to do my daughter's birthday party. I'm trying to have it on a different weekend than the 27th, but its looking pretty iffy right now.

Thanks doc, if I can go I will definitely seriously consider that.

Yea they're great little bikes, they handle like a scalpel.

Yea the speed limit there is 35 if I remember that shithole area correctly. From the video they have, I doubt he was doing 70 tho, that is merely a guesstimate from whomever decided to be an authority. Looked like 55 or close to me, considering how far the bike slid after impact. Apparently, and this is coming from my ex wife, the kid worked for Chrysler, at the 9 mi and Mound truck plant, that's how she found out. They start work at 330-4. Apparently he was a good kid. The people that took his stuff, no one knows who the hell that was. F#! $ ing Detroit. Do yourself a big favor. Go around.

Mirror gone > escape

A squid that I used to live near once launched his bike across the street into the side of his neighbors viper gts while attempting a burnout one 4th of July, it was poetic justice of the highest order. He owned that poor ninja less than a week.

Thanks, jbot, and don't worry, I have sarcasm flowing thru my veins and I have thick skin. I don't take much too seriously any more, especially myself. I work within TARDEC, my division is now called CSI, formerly CGVDI, I'm in prototype development and research of tracked and wheeled armorments. I'm seriously taking a look at riding down to ride with you guys on the Epic Ride. It sounds awesome, well organized, and with well thought out rules and guidelines. Aside from finding out if I'll have my kids that weekend, I'm wondering which group I'd fit into. I imagine that people in the fast and med fast groups all own sportbikes of at least 600ccs. I would likely take my Street Triple, and my riding style is brisk to say the least. I like to push it, and up until getting the Triple, I've also been a horsepower and speed junky, having owned a lot of larger HP bikes, but I've paid a price for that. But, like the advice said, I will likely go into the med fast or med group if I go. I can always step up. But if I don't have my kids, I'm definitely down. Likely ride down from Detroit Sat morning (gulp, I'd have to leave at 330) to meet at 1030 and ride all day, get a room, ride home Sunday. But that's subject to change. Whatever works at the time. I'm excited to be able to ride with a group that actually knows how to ride. It would be a welcome change over......what I usually have to deal with.
