just need to vent a little so i don't get arrested for murder. had to put down my wife's puppy today because she had some kind of incurible blood disease. of course the vet couldn't tell me that before i spent the money on her. we have had the dog for 6 months and my wife acts as if it was our lab that we have had forever.go to work to find that virtually nothing has gotten done as it should.  [thumbsup]  guys are we to immature to do what we know we have to.
last week i call AMS-A to make sure it's cool that i come up and get my tires mounted. the young kid up there says yeah no prob just come in first thing in the morn. easily done. call today to say i'll be there tomm morn as we discussed last week only to be told they are to backed up and will call me back next week to reschedule my appt. CRAP!!! so i call eurosport a little more expensive but at this point i don't care i just want my damn tires on.
i get home and begin the search for my ramp. i ask my son shane " did you guys use my ramp to load the dirt bikes when you went to the river?" "yeah!" he says. "where is it now?" i say. he says "i don't know!" the one D*** answer he knows sets me off. so after some fatherly-son discussion and a few phone calls we find out that he loaned them to his buddy after they left here because it was easier than using the board he had at his house. "GO GET IT!" i say. "CAN'T they are out of town until saturday!" "ARE YOU F***ING KIDDIN' ME?" "NO! i wouldn't be jokin around as pissed as you are right now." as he proceeds to the safety of the house at world record pace. so tommorrow i get to pull a rich (mckraut) and place the tires around my waist, a backpack with my work clothes (which i know will be wrinkled when i get there) and ride from my house in midlothian to eurosport in ft. worth.  i guess we all have bad days once in awhile i just needed to vent.
home will always be between the red and rio!!!

I was having a good day until I drove down to Killeen.

I witnessed TWO motorcycle wrecks, both totally unrelated, within not even a quarter a mile of eachother.

One involved Capt. Squidly and the amazing Bounce Technique, although it wasn't his fault, I'll say that.  He got bumped off the road by a jeep, grabbed a handfull of brake in soggy median grass, and instead of stopping the bike, the bike stopped him and flung him off, then continued on by itself across the other side of the highway before wrecking out into a twist of nothingness.  Capt. Squid was wearing a helmet, sleeveless T shirt, basketball shorts, and tennis shoes.  He landed sans shoes, barely had his socks left, road rashed everywhere, and barely had his helmet on his head (he didnt' have it strapped on, just had it plopped on his noggin).  Luckily the guy driving the Jeep stopped, and in ensuing rush of people that followed from both sides of the highway, a doc from the local er happened to be in the traffic mix, as well as a couple army medics.

The other one involved a cruiser guy who ran into the back of another car.  Seeing as how the car was missing its back bumper, it could only mean one thing.  Senor Cruiser wasn't wearing ANTHING on the head (not even the skull cap or as I call it, condom helmet), a t shirt, jeans, and boots.  He survived a good deal more decently than Capt. Squidly, but I don't know how he turned out injury wise because I only saw Senor Cruiser after he'd been cared for walking around and whatnot.  He was bandaged up pretty heavily on the upper body but seeing as how he was mobile I guess his lowers were ok.  He's just motherf*ckin lucky he didn't die.  So was Capt. Squidly.

Morals of the story:

A ) WEAR YOUR F*CKING GEAR PEOPLE.  I'm lucky I have a strong stomach because I stopped to check on Capt. Squidly (I had to yell at people not to take off his helmet) and damn....it was BAD.

B ) Don't EVER ride a motorcycle in Killeen, Texas, USA.

Tyler does the same shit with my stuff, so its all the kids.  and as for the kids checking the fields for mines, I'm okay with that,  I really think everyone, EVERYONE should do at least 2 years in the military.  It would help the kids with alot of their short commings!

At least when Nora works on the bike she puts the tools back in my toolbox, unlike tyler he likes to take them from mine and put them back in his.  >:(

 [thumbsup]  It will be another crappy day in squidland tonight @ NW & Garland and the Sonic !  Last week the LEOs had three cruisers parked on the grass gazing into the Sonic, two cruisers on the road between Sam's & the public park & two cruisers floating around.  I was shopping at Sam's not burning off the last of the Tourances before having them changed!

[leo] The city finally seems serious about stopping reckless & loud behavior out there.  I wonder why they don't put some cycle cops on it to try to do this in a less heavy handed way - ah.. if I ran the world !!!

I live a mile & a half from this scene & honestly don't care if they go out there & kill each other as long as they do it quietly after 10 PM !   [thumbsup]  But as loud as it has been listening to Vance & Hines VS Screamin' Eagles jeez!  It amazes me that no one has gone postal jihad on their asses !  OK I feel better !

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

I thought it best to delete my hitting kids with shovels and soccer in mine fields post. Oooops, I guess I just kinda repeated it. :P He'll never be good enough for "select" baseball. He thinks he's that good but he's not. Truth hurts. That would require him to actually work hard and be persisent at something and even his own Dad can't make him do that. He and I have a lot more in common than me and his Mom when it comes discipline and work ethic. Read: Momma's boy. OK, I'm done with family/parenting stuff for the year. Back to scooter posts.

"Crappy day?," you ask:

I saw rgr's post, that sucks, but that poor guy was a bit off center and w/o meds.  I'm glad the neighbor was able to get him policed up and moved to a facility.  I've heard crazy stories of dementia/alzheimers patients wandering off and really endangering themselves and others.

Chris, sorry about the shitty tire troubles.  Maybe we should all pitch in and get a tire changer, keep it centrally located and have all the tires delivered out to it.

Or we could all use Randy [thumbsup]  Did I mention that he did a great job on my tire swap?

2 things:

1. fastwin:  I bet colin is a good video game player. I know he works hard to do that. 

2.   Just have the tires delivered to the warehome!!  Then go over to the warehome give randy your bike, grab a drink from the fridge and get in the hot tub, until he gets done!  [thumbsup]
