Sometimes he's OK, but then he feels like crap.

All I want is for the chuckleheads to use some sense. Speed up when passing (that's for everyone), and get the heck out of the way when you are done. I have these issues with people, and I generally drive the speed limit in open country and the flow of traffic in closer.

That's what it is all about!

Snow is just traces in the shade here mostly. But that last snow last Friday got us the grand finale for salt, man they poured it on.

Wish I would of saved some money in my twenty's but I blew every cent on wimmen and booze and the such. Once I hit 30 I really thought I was fugged ( still might be) but then I stumbled into this gig and have some money in simple IRA's and the OL likes the fact that there is some left over after the bills are paid. Got about $11,000 left to pay on the house but she wants an addition so that number will go back up. All and all I really can't complain for starting out a dumb inner city kid who graduated with like a 2.2 gpa.

I got divorced at 28, and we split the $300 we had in the bank.

The wife just got smashed into on her way to work. She is not hurt. Gal ran a red and hit her in the passenger side. Door and wheel do not operate. Dang it, we like that car.

Ever had the swingarm pivot bolt out? Those things sure like to corrode in tight. Don't know why factories never use never seize. Get the daughter settled in and her stuff outta the way in the grudge, and that's the first next step on the Glide, cutting that bolt and pressing it outta the transmission. Oh please Lord, don't let that case crack...

Axles can be a pain, too. Think the front tire on my '04 mighta been original when I got it a couple years ago, and nobody ever lubed the rear one, hadda do some pounding on both of em, and the swingarm pivot. They'll slip out easy next time...

2001 Honda Civic with 185,000 miles on it. And hail damage for which we have already been paid. I doubt the gal's insurance will want to repair it.
