KenB Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 On Monday our high temp was 65 degrees. On Tuesday our high temp was 25 degrees. Yesterday our high temp was 15 degrees. Today we're supposed to get up to a balmy 6 degrees. It is in biker parlance, HOLY MOTHER FKR COLD. Bikes are parked in the garage and are on the trickle charger. I'll probably be back to riding next week.. for how though it's just too damned cold to even go outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenB Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 Personally speaking, I'm in favor of global warming... warmer = more riding days. We usually have temps like this from time to time during winter.. this is hitting us hard because it came on us so quickly. http://www.emergencyemail.org/weathergetwang1.asp?src=DS.p19r0/si.kPUX&scr=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v-rodcpa Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Did I mention? AL Gore is a flaming ASSHOLE! He's bat shit crazy, too. Scary to think he lost the Presidency by a small margin. We need to require an IQ test before anyone is allowed to vote. Dumbasses should not be making decisions affecting this country, let alone propagating our species. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell he'd probably win now...I agree that there should be an IQ test before you can vote...but then again I probably wouldn't be able to vote...

Airpirate Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 You shouldn't be able to vote unless you're a taxpayer ( with exception like Military) If you're on government dependency programs , you can't vote until you're OFF and contributing to the treasury 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dk007 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hell....I paid more taxes as a military member than most people I know. Funny how the military is paid with tax money that is......taxed again. The only tax break military members get is while deployed.....and they even tax that after you reach a specified amount.

dk007 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Oh....and it got cold here too. Went for a short spin to break in my new leather jacket and chaps. Worked out pretty good except after a half hour my face and hands started to get a little chilly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
