But burns just a little bit more fuel...
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Just tell people you are Ewan McGregor and that you are filming long way sideways then people will give you fuel.
Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project.

No one will believe that.  I'm too good looking.


Now, if a certain Diva would finally buy her helicopter... ;)

Oh, no. Not money.

I've been cutting metal since 1:00 this afternoon.

An indentured "helper" would go a long ways these days.

C says I should go this year, so I'm working on a plan.  I've got a couple things to get sorted, but I think I can make it.  It looks like it's around 15 hours or so.  My current thought is to leave Thursday, make a hard day of it and get close and ride the rest in on Friday.  That should put me somewhere in northern PA or in southern NY.  Then I'll ride the rest in Friday and get there mid-Friday.  Any suggestions on areas to book a room and areas to avoid?
