WOW.

I've been watching the feeding frenzy on the John White Gas Caps thread.

I can't decide if it's funny or pitiful.

Seems to me like some of the biggest John White haters and bashers on this board have turned into beggars.

You guys take a look into yourselves.

Pretty fucking pitiful aren't you?

Hey Brock.

What happened to your principles man.

How the hell did JW go from being someone you couldn't stand JW because of his money and privelege to becoming someone you are now giving advice and guidance to.

GUT UP--say what you mean and stand by it.

You don't really expect me to believe you can be boughten by a set of gas caps do you?

Oh--yeah--one more thing?

I've asked John for a set of those caps also--but I've also asked him to send a bill right along with them.

Like I've been saying for the last 6 months?

No one buys me.

Can you all be saying the same thing?

Well--one of todays little thoughts will be my take on this whole "Brotherhood" thing.

I'm getting ready to post it--but want to give it a little more thought.

I've made a hell of a lot of "friends" on this board--and I've made a hell of a lot of friends riding on motorcycles..

I'm just lately having a problem with the "Brotherhood" thing though.

Seems like there are some folks who use the term sincerely.

But it also seems like there are some folks that will use the term to make a point or degrade another rider.

Me?

I'm beginning to suspect Riders Groups like we are need to stick to being FRIENDS.

I've taken a look at who seems to gravitate towards "Brotherhood".

Seems MC's are the ones who originated it as it applies to us.

I'm thinking the term doesn't apply to what we are.

In an MC I'm thinking there is a hierarchy.

The leaders make the rules--the "Brotherhood" takes the orders and follows them.

The "Brotherhood" is expected to blindly follow the decision of the Leadership.

No questions--no honest expression of opinion--no bickering or arguing--follow the decision of the leadership or your ass can get hurt bad--quick.

Kind of seems like that is what happened to me on this board.

I went against the "Leadership"

Say what you want--then shut up and look at what happened to me and a few other folks on this board..

Me?

When it comes to motorcycle riding?

I make my own decisions.

I ride what I want.

I ride where I want.

I ride when I want.

I ride with who I want to.

I don't let some one elses opinion influence me.

That doesn't mean you have to agree with me.

Take your own path--sometimes I might ride with you a ways--sometimes I might not.

But we're still friends when we finish the ride.

If I'm your friend?

I got your back to the end.

That's kind of what happened to me on this board.

From the beinning I recognised who John White was--what he was trying to do.

I also recognised the fact that there were maliscious--personal attacks being carried out on him.

One thing some of you boys will have to admit?

I pretty much made my stand and didn't back off or back down.

AND?

I did it because I wanted to.

I wasn't bought--bribed--paid off--or intimidated.

I was damn sure accused of it though.

And now it seems like some of my worst accusers are suddenly seeing the light.

Well--maybe not seeing the light really--but seems like they are seeing the possibility of maybe using John White.

Hey--call him and ask him if I've ever asked for--taken--or even hinted I wanted anything from him for free.

I'll bet you your free set of gas caps he'll tell you no.

I become friends with a man because I recognise something in him I respect.

Some of you all are pretty damn pitiful.

Sell your opinion, and do a 180 for a free set of gas caps.

SAD-SAD-SAD.

I don't want to be hurting anyones feelings on here.

And anything you read on this site is MY OPINION.

But?

If you'll do it?

Don't be calling me your "Brother"

Call me your friend.

I wish some of the REAL DEALS on here would express there thoughts on this "Brotherhood" thing.

I'm thinking their opinion of it would surprise you.

I'm thinking the REAL DEAL kind of laugh at us RUBs and PUBs when we go tossing the "Brotherhood" thing around.

Most of us don't have a clue what a true "Brotherhood" is all about.

I sent John a note and commended him for is recent posts and for finally getting some gas caps together when Dale and others have not or would not. I also told him I would test them and would return them with all my comments and findings both good and bad. I also mentioned that some things may never change between us but time will tell and his actions the past few months were commendable. Just being honest with him... never said I forgave him...just that he is a different man today than even in April 06 at least on the board. I am not doing anything but offering to help. If I knew he was going to send out $8000 worth of caps I would not have offered to help. You see I did not ask for caps...just told him that if he needed an evaluation that will be no-bullshit and actually tested...then i would check a set out for him and Canuck.

I wont keep the gas caps....but just trying to test them as i ride year round in heat, cold, rain, etc. They will go back with a detailed report in couple months of riding and dousing with water hose.

I am not claiming John is the messiah by offering my help...he is ust someone that is making these caps with the help of Canuck and i want to make sure they are given an honest evaluation as it looks like he is sending out too many in my opinion...and it was indeed a feeding frenzy. i just want good caps with no keys and prefer flush mount or pop up caps but this is the first step and would offer the same to anyone as I have before. But you wont hear me slamming braided lines from J&P...or leather from HornDawg, or grips from Kuryakn just because I have tested for thousands of miles products from their competitors.

I can help test an item without slamming others trying to do the same... I tested leather from Chilhowee...I tested braided lines from Muscarella...among other things.

I dont think I ever slammed you for riding one of Johns bikes...to the contrary I wished you a safe journey every time. I only tired of the constant Stellican slamming by you and Don.....and what I perceived as loyalty to JW when he had not done more than other persons on the forum when it comes to bike customizing and such. That was and is my only beef Ed... When I shook your hand at IRIP I meant it....I even shook JWs hand and told him to his face I did not care for him and did not know if I ever would but that I would be up front with him.

Welcome back...

Brotherhood?

You should listen to your own words...........You don't take anyone's word for their word? You piss gas on a fire you started to divide a bunch of us and start a huge fight amoung us brothers...........Shit, you're the one who needs to examine the term "brotherhood"! You started a firestorm and I mean a bad one at that! You and I have been at odds before and we have always been able to come back and resolve our issues....So why can't you do the same with others? You keep pushing and pushing, then you poke and poke at folks until they end up defending themsleves. You are not a Judge or Jury! So why do you keep on with your shit? Live and let live. Holding on to this shit does not do you or the rest of us any good for our cause....Remember...Indian Motorcycles

Hey snogoer.

This is my own private blog.

I can suspend your priveleges to post in my blog if I don't like what you say.

My suggestion to you?

Go back, and reread my "Brotherhood" thread.

Then go back and read the WTF thread all over again.

Seems like to me?

I was suspended--then given a kangaroo court.

Conducted mainly by the moderators of this board.

Kind of pitiful the way they whined back and forth to eachother.

And kind of funny how the thread was locked after a final comment by a moderator.

Seems to me like if anyone on here should be seen as impartial-it should be the moderators.

Damn--we saw everything from the memories of friends who have passed away - to children - to what the hell they had for lunch.

Pretty classless--clueless--and transparent.

From the Emails and phone calls I recieved during the whole show?

Well I'm thinking the moderators of this board would have been a whole lot better off just suspending me and keeping quiet about it.

Nope--instead they went on a vendetta--with me not able to defend myself.

People didn't much care for that.

And if you'll look at that thread?

You'll see very few people took part in it.

Nope--you guys need to take a look at what happened to Don and Ludie.

BULLSHIT--BULLSHIT--BULLSHIT.

As far as shit stirring?

Well--the only shit stirring I ever did was when CERTAIN PEOPLE on here would go to bashing JW--Crazy Horse and Thunder Dreamer.

I'd bet if you take the time to look at all the "shit" I supposedly stirred.

You're going to find that the greatest part of my shit stirring was in defense of JW--AFTER someone else made a derogatory post about him.

You'll also find that I was never much of a Stellican fan.

I still don't like them, and I'm thinking you all better be getting ready for some more big news coming from them.

Come back and see me after you do a little more reading and let me know if you've reconsidered a little.

If not--let me know and I'll "Suspend" you from my blog for the next few days.

Ride Safe

KC

Oh yeah--a twofer.

Brock?

Yeah--right--whatever

Horse-Shit Ed! Don't wait, suspend away My Brother! Irony is always worth twice its weight in gold!

Naaah!

I won't REALLY suspend you.

I enjoy your company.

And I actually enjoy listening to your point of view.

That's actually kind of what this forum was before we decided not to listen to eachother.

But-- would ask you to do what I wanted you to do--read up a little.

Then come back and let me know your own opinion on the little railroad job I was given.

Then take an honest look at what drove Don away.

You know what?

V-144s post being moved to the wrong section was an ACCIDENT?

OK--maybe--and I'll agree it might have been accidentally moved.

But what explains why it was never moved OUT of the joke section?

Blackdog copying my profile-user name-and avatar was stopped--and considered some kind of joke.

BD was punished--and came right back on and did it again -- hell he even posted under the second one.

Was he punished for that?

Nope--there's an agenda going on here.

Ed, I don't pretend to know all that went on..and it's not my biz..

Somehow this seems like it a JW vs DW thing...and that's just silly..in fact I think this whole bit with you and Don and Ludie is pretty immature, on all parts...

I have never been a big JW supporter, and I stick to my assertation that I would not buy a bike from him--owner of Indian or not--UNLESS AND UNTIL I saw something different..it was never just what he was seling, but his delivery...that seems to be changing..I still don't agree with everything he says, but at least now he seems to respect other opinions and learns from them..I think others on the board recognize the same and are taking it at face value--at least publicly...I think you are off base if you think being civil and offering to test his gas caps is a sucking up or something...

that seems to be a big part of the problem that you, Ludie and Don and the mods and some others have on the forum...

there's some kinda misguided irony there huh?

as for the deal with your account, I think you are a bit paranoid there..I don't know about changing post, but I do know the mods can't access your account and you still access w/o them knowing your current password....

I miss you, Ludie and Don and wish you all would bury the hatchet and move on.....I don't like everyone here and everyone here doesn't like me, but I stay in the name of friendship and brotherhood...

I think you can have a brotherhood w/o being a MC...

remember when you offered to watch my back one time?...you know Firefinder gave up a day of work to help me with a photoshoot? you know Last Resort almost drove to new orleans to kidnap me to go to Branson? You know Joe and Kim have gone all out of there way for me and others? You know the offers of a place to stay and such i've gotten?

If that ain't brotherhood it's close enuff for me!

ride safe my brother,

eric

Hey homer.

Yep--I remember the tme I offered to watch your back.

AND!

I'd do it again right now--you wouldn't even have to ask about it or worry about it--or think about it--if I was there it would be automatic.

Because--we're FRIENDS.

Nope--I won't be going the Brotherhood deal anymore.

If you're my friend--I got you covered--period.

I think I figured out that Friends can fight argue insult and raise hell with eachother and still be friends.

"Brothers" are expected to follow the pack to keep out of shit.

I've never been much for going down the accepted path instead of the path I thought was right.

A lot of these folks throw "Brother" around way too easily.

Hell how can you be brothers with someone you've never met--ridden beside--or even shook hands with.

Last Resort stated sometime back that he didn't have to meet someone to judge them.

I'll agree with him to a point.

Me?

I can make a pretty good guess at who I'd like on here--and I think some of the folks I'd like to get to know better might surprise you.

Some of the ones I fight the worst with are the ones I'd like to meet the most.

Because I can see they are just as obnoxious as me--and I like that.

Nope--got to disagree with you on the pathetic suction that was thrown JWs way on those caps.

Folks that never had a civil word to him or about him were crowding into the line to get a freebie.

Exactly what those same folks were accusing me of.

Me?

I said it before and I'll say it again--confirm with John White if you want.

I asked for a set of those caps--and also told him if he didn't enclose the bill not to send them to me.

I got a free ride on the Crazy Horse--enjoyed the hell out of it.

But nothing was paid for but the gas and a hotel room.

Testing out a prototype and offering feedback.

For that I was accused by some folks on here of being on the take.

Now they justify a free set of caps by providing what I was providing.

BUT.

It's OK now because it's them doing it.

Nope--that's bullshit.

The Topic changing on that post.

Well--let me tell you something.

I've been told by friends that I trust right down to the ground that the admins couldn't change it.

I don't know computers.

BUT.

That thread changed.

I saw it change.

Ant saw it change.

And I didn't change it. Hell LR says I can change it but I don't think I can--and don't know how.

Nope -- again--be my friend.

I'm done with the brotherhood business.

And--one of these days we'll get to the rest of the story on the dark lonely breakdown in the middle of Missouri when LR came out to rescue me.

I thanked him Publicly on this sie for coming out to help a rider I was escorting to Branson.

But?

I'm still trying to decide whether or not to come out with my side of that one.

Gratitude from me on a friends behalf is what is keeping me quiet for now.

Last Resort or Maldev.

I will ask on here for one of you to remove Blackdogs KC Chef posts from the board.

You'll notice I've pretty well shut down my profile--avatar--and just have my name on the board.

I'd just as soon get my avatar off the little personna BD created.

It is my avatar--not part of the board, and I'd appreciate it being taken off of BDs KC Chef posts.

Thank you.

Gas cap testing.?? Thats a hot one.

Well--one thing about those "Gas Cap Testers"?

It sure didn't take long to find out how much a damn gas cap would buy.

Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root charged millions to the government for recreational services never provided to U.S. troops in Iraq, including giant tubs of chicken wings and tacos, a widescreen TV, and cheese sticks meant for a military Super Bowl party, according to a federal whistle-blower suit unsealed Friday.

Instead, the suit alleges, KBR used the military's supplies for its own football party.

Filed last year in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., by former KBR employee Julie McBride, the lawsuit claims the giant defense contractor billed the government for thousands of meals it never served, inflated the number of soldiers using its fitness and Internet centers, and regularly siphoned off great quantities of supplies destined for American soldiers.

McBride was hired by KBR in 2004 as a "morale, welfare and recreation" coordinator at Camp Fallujah, a Marine installation about 35 miles west of Baghdad. She was fired the next year after making several complaints about KBR's accounting practices, the suit says, and was kept under guard until she was escorted to an airplane and flown out of the country.

Halliburton denied McBride's allegations.

"The claims included in this lawsuit clearly demonstrate a complete misinterpretation of facts as well as a lack of understanding of KBR's contractual agreements with its customer," said company spokeswoman Melissa Norcross in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

The Super Bowl incident occurred in January 2005, the suit said. "McBride witnessed a large amount of food that was ordered specifically for a Super Bowl party for the military" taken instead to the company's lodgings. "About 10 large metal tubs full of tacos, chicken wings, (and) cheese sticks were taken from the military party site to a KBR camp for a KBR Super Bowl Party for KBR employees," according to the complaint. A widescreen TV was also removed.

McBride worked 12-hour shifts, seven days a week, at Camp Fallujah's recreation center, where the government was billed according to the number of soldiers using the contractor's facilities, which included a weight room, video games, Internet cafe, a library and phone bank, the suit says. She alleges that KBR deliberately overstated the number of military personnel using its services by counting the same person several times. For example, a person who used a computer was counted as one. If that person went on the weight room, another count was added to the list of patrons.

"It wasn't double-dipping, but triple dipping or even quadruple billing," the suit claims.

Attorney Alan Grayson, who represents McBride, said "millions of dollars have been submitted by Halliburton for recreational services" not provided.

The "qui tam" suit, filed under the federal False Claims Act, allows citizens to sue on behalf of the government against contractors who make false claims for payment. The plaintiffs are eligible to receive a percentage of awarded damages, which are tripled in this type of suit.

Such suits are usually sealed for 60 days while the Justice Department investigates the claims and decides whether the U.S. Attorney's office will sign on as a co-plaintiff.

The Justice Department declined comment Friday on why it chose not to participate in McBride's suit.

McBride is not the first Halliburton employee to allege fraudulent billing practices. The company has steadfastly denied wrongdoing.

Rory Mayberry, who worked for KBR in 2004, testified from Iraq via videotape to a group of Democratic members of Congress investigating contractor fraud.

As food manager at another military camp in Iraq, Mayberry said he witnessed KBR employees serving spoiled food to American troops, including food from trucks that had been bombed and shot at. Workers were told to pick out the shrapnel, and then serve the food, Mayberry testified.

He also claimed KBR charged the government for meals it never served.

In July 2004, former KBR planner Marie DeYoung testified before the House Committee on Government Reform. She said she witnessed "significant waste and overpricing" while working for the contractor in Kuwait, including paying a subcontractor $100 per 15 pounds of laundry, costs which were passed on to the government.

Halliburton, which holds more than 50 percent of rebuilding contracts in Iraq, was headed by Dick Cheney before he took office as vice president. He has denied any government favoritism toward his former company.

WOW!!

Another report of fraud!!

Yep--got to be true!!!

All I have to say is?

And you do not have to agree with me if you don't want to.

BUT.

I worked about 18 months in Irag.

Basra--Fallujah--Camp Annaconda--and all over the fucking place in between.

What I saw in EVERY military camp I stayed in and ate in?

GOOD FUCKING food--served to the troops by B&R employees who were going out of their way to provide support.

Nope--you give me 4 meals a day--and give me a choice of 4 or 5 entres ranging from hotdogs and hamburgers to prime rib and I'm probably going to be pretty damn satisfied.

Hell--I'd be willing willing to eat the food I ate over the every day from now on.

I also saw a lot of B&R employees risking their lives--literally to provide the support the troops needed to keep operating over there.

Hell I even lost a close personal friend in one of the B&R convoys that were attacked over there.

Lets see--what kind of money would Wild Hare want to drive a gasoline tanker through that shit hole of a country?

I personally saw convoys of new trucks roll across the Kuwait/Iraqi border and come back shot all to shit--burned up, and blown to hell.

Hey LR and WH--nice try--but I've agreed to stay in here in my own little world and post away.

I'm not censored or fucked with by anyone.

And--I don't censor or fuck with anyone unless I think they need to be censored or fucked with--then I'll just let them post their opinion--jump in their shit--and go on.

You all need to stop in and say hello from time to time.

That would give us a chance to talk a little.

You're right on the money about B&R, Ed.

Hell, someone was bitching about the no-bid contracts.

I bet there ain't another company anywhere that can or will do what Haliburton does.

But They're the Anti-Christ because Dick Chaney was on the BOD at one time...

Rosie

Ya neeeed speellchex, ED...

Damn!!

I just pulled up a thread that has some pics in it that explains a lot to me.

HA-HA-HA--HA--I'm an ugly fucker--just ask anyone who's ever met me.

But holy crap--the pics I was just looking at?

That's an ugly GOOFY looking fucker!

Damn--now I know why he's such a dipshit on the board--he IS ONE in real life.

I wish I knew how to do about 2 pages of HA-HA-HA I'm thinking a face like that deserves some laughter.

Those mountains will never be the same.

HeyRosie.

Behave yourself when you're in here.

I can suspend you--or ban you- or whatever I want.

Well not exactly--I can't kick your ass-that would land me in the tank again.

Nah--I don't need spell check.

I'll just keep on winging it.

You want to take a message to the "outside" for me once in a while?

I like it in here.

I should have been banned sooner.

Hell--I've got the moderators checkng up on me 5 or 6 times a day.

I'm comfortable in here, and get a chance to peek out and check out some of the threads that interest me.

Some of the things I've been seeing lately pretty much amaze me.

And some of the excuses are funny as hell to read.

WOW!!

The Lone Wolf site goes down in flames a little before the Branson Rally.

I get hit by some kind of Trojan thing, and a week later everyones telling me to be sure to check my password to make sure no one has it and is using it to get into my site.

Now--JWs sites are hit, and it seems to pop up shit from his site onto this board.

OK--now I AM paranoid.

That's OK though--I've been accused of being paranoid by some folks on here for the past coule of weeks anyway.

This is some wierd shit going on here.

KC Cheef,

I have one quick question as I've finished reading the WTF thread and tried to read all the backstory threads as I could. I see both sides of the story and the moving line in the sand over what happened. All that bs aside, did you threaten other members of the forum and the moderators?

You kept saying to post to your blog and until today, I had no idea WTF you were talking about. In fact, I didn't even know these things existed.

Interesting how this all came to pass.

I will check in from time to time.

Mike

Thanks Mike.

You are welcome in here anytime.

Just remeber--well I guess you already know because you've met me a few times.

I'm grumpy and like having my own way.

This is my private space, and I get cranky.

Especially when the board mods visit all the time and never stay and say hello.

Hunter.

I was suspended for writing another member what he considered to be a threatening PM.

It was not intended to be threatening.

It was a simple plea, and a statement of fact.

And?

If I remember right?

I even said please.

From what I've seen on this board?

My mistake wasn't sending that PM.

It was neglecting to put a smiley face or a rolling laughing head on the PM.

That seems to make anything some folks want to say Ok to say.

I'm cool with all this though.

Looks to me like there are some things being sorted out right now.

And I'm thinking it's about time to "Git 'er Dun"

hey ed, you say this is the place to give your opinion on any subject, well here is mine. my blackhawked chief will eat up your old malfed chief any day of the week.

Thanks Mike.

You are welcome in here anytime.

It was a simple plea, and a statement of fact.

And?

If I remember right?

I even said please.

From what I've seen on this board?

My mistake wasn't sending that PM.

It was neglecting to put a smiley face or a rolling laughing head on the PM.

That seems to make anything some folks want to say Ok to say.

 

I'm cool with all this though.

Looks to me like there are some things being sorted out right now.

And I'm thinking it's about time to "Git 'er Dun"

OK. Again, bs aside, the answer is yes.

So what's getting sorted out and what's gittin dun?

HEY MO!!!

You want to be damned careful what you say in here.

YOU ARE SUSPENDED FOR AN HOUR!

Maybe 2!

I'm thinking you BELONG in the drunk tank for even thinking such blasphemy!!!

I'll let you out in an hour or 2.

Depends on how I feel.

Who's Mo?

Thanks Mike.

You are welcome in here anytime.

Just remeber--well I guess you already know because you've met me a few times.

I'm grumpy and like having my own way.

This is my private space, and I get cranky.

Especially when the board mods visit all the time and never stay and say hello.

WOW!!

Are you trying to answer your own question to me?

I've had that happen to me before on the board.

No--the answer wasn't "Yes".

I'm beginning to get kind of a wierd feeling about you.

And I'm wondering about your personal interest in me.

Getting sorted out?

And getting 'er done?

Well it COULD be that I've just put a Mik 45 on my Cheef.

That COULD be getting it sorted out.

And I'm getting ready to go to chain and sprocket to replace a drive belt I stripped out a few days ago.

That COULD be gittin er dun.

But then again maybe not.

Do I know you?

Seems like you are a Lone Wolf.

And seems like we might have met in Branson--but I met a lot of folks in Branson, and I can't place a face with a name.

And?

Your avatar is kind of--well to put it bluntly?

Wierd--something about it kind of makes my skin crawl or something.

Who is it?
