Could have been worse wayno, my wife might have been the RT. She's been working vents for over 20 years. Fortunately she keeps any rider resentment out of her work ethic (else I'd be a goner jk)

I very well know that it could have been worse and I am very greatful to you wife and the nurses like her./...but still I was trying to convey to others what a Vent is like and a reason for Charlies disagreability if that is a word. Yes I would prob be on the other side of the dirt myself....thanks again to you Wife.

Thumb Go charlie go

Glad to hear that Charlie is on the mend.

After three trips to the DMV this week, and seven total, I finally have my '75 British convertible in my name. I have only had possession of it for 18 years, and had it halfway restored before I quit in case I couldn't get it legal.

Of course now, since it has been such a pain in the ass, I'm sick of looking at it.

So..... as soon as the title comes in the mail (if it doesn't freakin' disappear) it goes up for sale. And the proceeds will go to a nice shiny WR250R!
Already got quotes from my insurance agent, and Bill Eddy's. CAN"T WAIT!!!

ok..so this week I have going over to my friends house to take care of her '"goats" while she is away on vacation...I have got to ride the XR everyday this week, its 25 miles over and back so I am at least getting 50 miles a day on the xr, and its running GREAT..front fork seal is weeping a bit but thats an easy fix..so anyway..I go feed her animals yesterday..and then I ride to HSV to shower and clean up so that I can get on the harley and ride to FYV to check on Charlie..then I rode back to HSV to put the harley up..get on the xr and ride home..it was hot, but I got to ride

So I get home and I notice that SOMEONE HAS BEEN HERE!!!

I find fire wood piled up on the hood of my jeep...WTF!!!





That wasnt there when I left at 9am

So I ask the wife why did she pile some firewood up on the hood of the jeep..she says, "I didnt do that!"...so she goes to the bed room window and look out at the jeep, she turns to me and says, "Who's JD?"




DOH!

Sorry I miised ya JD..if only you had called, I would have waited on ya and you cudda gone with me
