Mornin toakers. Just dropped the jeep off for a new oil cooler. Got some astroglyde on the way home for when the bill is due. Looking at guitars online last night, when I found the original ad for the red LP I just bought. It originally sold in California, made it to Florida, then up to Colorado, and now back to Florida

Try $97,000.

Watch out for thieves while in Miami. I've done lots of business there in my years. I used to go down to teach classes. I would only use my company expense card at the hotel and a nearby Cuban restaurant. Two out of three visits someone would steal the card info and buy building supplies, electronics, etc. Bank of American rep told me that Miami and the Continent of Africa were the two places in the planet where there customers had there info stolen the most. I think half of Miami runs on thievery. They just arrested 3 TSA workers who were stealing over $1000 a day from wallets and purses in the screening line. In an interview once a man on the street said, if they come here with it, we take it, they have more back home.

Teeth are drilled and filled.
I have a blazing head ache.
Currently looking for a set of OE air shocks, I loved them on my 2003 RG.

Side note, I have been working hard to expand my photography. I just had Klock Works reach out to me. I'm gonna try to work something out with them.

A pair of used OEM air shocks transformed my Sportster's ride, lot of streets around here have such bad frost heaves at cracks and joints they had me bouncing off the seat, now they don't even bump much. Handles the same, only problem is one of them leaks down pretty quick now, but even without air pressure they work good on the lighter weight bike.

Materials delivered, tomorrow the roof gets noisy. Last time it was done I was at work for most of it, may do outside yard werk while they put the shingles on, getrs pretty noisy in the house. Carol's garage had a layer of dirt & shingle stuff in it, covered her car, so I'll put a big tarp over the bikes. Might just be her roof plywood has gaps, I didn't get any of that when the current shingles were put on.

OK, got a serious question. When I was stationed at Hood,va woman in the barracks was raped 3 doors down from me. I was questioned 3 times and ruled not a suspect (suspect is black) 23 years later, they catch the guy. They're sending everyone involved a subpoena. Supposedly so the jury can see us and know we weren't involved. Do I need a lawyer

Back from the expo. Everything was whacked out price wise 13 dollar beers 4 dollar waters. 7 dollar for a large coffee. I left I’m utter disgust when the knife guy (I buy from every year) had his Chinese crap 3 x as much as their worth.
We left. Bidenomics won
