Perhaps some folks need to be seen doing something in order to feel useful and important.

Dude! Be nice!

Oh well at least we can still complain here, and get into politics too.

I'm pissed off that the Premier of Ontario Dalton McGinty is pushing for an outright ban on handguns. The amount of paperwork is so onerous already that only a very few could be bothered having one in the first place. What do the criminals care if handguns or even all guns were banned. They are still going to have just as many illegal guns as before. This is all about disarming the law abiding citizen in my opinion.

Amen brother! Wait! Are we going in the religion thread now???

Just kidding.

I agree. Most gun-control legislation (at least here in the Us, and I suspect Canada ain't all that different in results) prevents law-abiding citizens from getting and keeping guns on their timetable...There are always guns available on the street, and although most of them WERE purchased at one time or another legally, the fault really rests on the seller of the guns and the owners...If there is a dude, in gang-banger gear, nervous and shifty-eyed buying 25 cheap-o revolvers, auto's and mossberg shotguns, that should send up a warning flag, right?

I was buying some ammo a couple days ago and a guy who looked exactly like you just described, and who could barely speak English walked in asking for "AK-47" shells. He couldn't even figure out that the box of 7.62x39 shells that he was looking right at were what he wanted just because it didn't say "AK-47" on the box. If you don't even know what caliber ammo your gun takes then you should not be buying it. The shop guy didn't even look twice, just handed him four boxes and said "have fun."

Checked my fluids on my 01-929rr beofre leaving for work and after 2 miles got blasted with coolant, CRAP! cap is gone. Worst part, I called every dealer from san diego to riverside and the quickest I can get one is a week!

*ratchetman* · 06-28-2007, 8:09 PM

Got a ticket 109 in an 80. That's like 65 in a 50. $138.00
There's no mercy here with all the high speed bike fatalities lately. The cop was watching the spot where some guy bought the farm last Friday.

Just got distracted from the speedo for a moment. The biggest problem is that if my insurance goes up goodbye bike.

More road rage - young female driver, cell phone in one hand, flipping the bird with the other. Probably she can't drive with two hands let alone none.

Joe Buck and Tim McCarver. if listening to those 2 ****ing morons doesn't piss you off either you're deaf or you're a moron too.

.OrgOwner · 10-19-2007, 6:32 PM

Nothing so far today... Nice to have days like that.

LuckyLightning · 10-20-2007, 10:13 AM

Well at 5:30 am my bloody phone rang, was the business phone so I jumped up out of bed and answered. The person on the other end was a stalker that has been plaguing me for over a year now. There isn't much the police can do since he hasn't broken any laws, yet. At least that's what they tell me. I wish he would just come to my home and walk in the door so I can blow his nasty a** away.

Well if he was a she I wouldn't be so concerned. Oh and Scud, automated solicitations don't count as "girls"

Juggernaut · 10-21-2007, 12:05 AM

Not one but two things- my brother waking me by calling at 4 a.m., then my roommate waking me by calling six hours later to go riding because his helmet finally got in yesterday. I don't get to sleep until 9 a.m. like he does and enjoy sleeping in on the weekends, I'm at work for more than two hours by the time he wakes up.

haha yea im not complaining about it... oh and automated solicitations? i would never count them

i was looking for a good emoticon, that caught my attention...

Surffrog · 10-21-2007, 6:45 AM

I've never understood what it is that makes stalkers want to keep contacting someone who has no interest in contact with them. Yes, I know there's some control thing going on, but really. Give it up and find something better to do with your life like stalking Big foot. Then, if you find one, you can be famous and get some stalkers of your own.

julianelmur · 10-21-2007, 8:46 AM

i'm pissed because i drank a monster and now i can't sleep, but i'm too drunk to get on the bike. wtf am i gonna do?
