Free Bird.

Everytime I am in the garage shining or getting ready to lift off, I force that song out of my iTunes. It's been sort of an anthem in my life that my girlfriend just hates:P

I dont have an "Old Lady".
Apparently, you have no respect for women.
Do you name your shoes, too ???

Don't really have a name but if anything I'd call it Doc. Cause when I need to clear my head, I tell the wife it's time to see the therapist again and hit the road. I always feel better after a ride;even a short 20 min trip.

Naming vehicles in and old tradition... Where would we be without The General Lee?

Found this interesting how many vehicle names are based on their color:
Naming Trend #1: Naming a car due to its color. (This was the most common naming trend in our survey)

Baby Blue
Blue Bean
Blue bullet
Old Blue
Blueberry ("My sister's blue 1984 GMC truck")
The Smurf ("A tiny blue Toyota Corolla")*
Blue ("For our green Escort. My spouse is color indifferent")

Red Rover
Red Boy
Rosie (Namely-Yours note: we had several entries with this name. Usually used for a red truck)
Pepper ("It looked the color of a Dr. Pepper can")

*
The Pickle
Kermit*
The Green Goddess
Little Cucumber
The Jackolantern ("An orange van. The antenna on the roof is the stem")
Pumpkin-mobile* ("Because it was old and orange and very round")
The Great Pumpkin

"The Sunflower of Love" ("For my 1985 bright yellow sedan")
Goldie Locks ("It was an old gold farm truck")
Beryl the Yellow Peril
The Buttermilk Biscuit
Banana ("Light yellow 71 Volkswagen Squareback")

*
The Silver Beast
The Silver Bullet
Bernard ("because the car was big and brown")* (Hint: Think of a St. Bernard)
Steve Black ("because Steven is my boyfriend and the colour of my car is black")

The Springer.
The Heritage.
The Shovel.

That's all I could come up with.

I will from this point forward call all "bikers" that name their motorcycles........... Retard.
And I will from this point forward call all judgmental hangarounds with a mere 14 posts.............. Douchebag.

Awwww.... you hurt my feelings with that witty retort.
So now all it takes is a couple thousand posts and then my opinion will mean something ??
That makes sense.

Look it's bad enough I am mentally challenged, and have worked hard and struggled my whole life (yes I have a motorcycle and named it), you don't have to sling derogatory names around these threads just because you think you are superior to others.

Thank you....................now carry on.
