From the tech board.

I was going to post this reply on the Tech board, but no use cluttering
it up with a rant!! (I figgered Willow would move it, anyway!!!)

No cruise control and I thought about the CA model. But this one was sold by Honda/Suzuki North new to Nate Newton of the Cowboys.  Bike got repossessed and we bought it with 2K miles on it.  Just wondering why three cylinders have lines and three don't when mine doesn't have any.  Really perplexed with the 15 mpg.

Sorry for the hijack, but this burns me up!!!! HOW can any NFL player (or NBA, MLB)
have a $10-15,000 motersickle re-possessed? Why do so many of them go bankrupt?!
How stupid/ignorant/egotistical are these people? I say make EVERY ONE of them work
for minimum wage for one year before they sign those big contracts!! Let them see
what it's like waiting for payday to buy something. It wouldn't help most of them, but
a few might learn something....unlike most of them that didn't learn a thing in 12 yrs
of school and 3-4 years of FREE college!! (rant over)

Some folks are just too impulsive. This week at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, a guy came from back East and bought 16 classic/collectible cars. Turns out he just won the powerball. He'll lose it all in 3-5 years.

Here's a clue...

From the Times Magazine article, "Sex, Drugs, and America's Team"

Nate Newton hungered for glory. The offensive linemen credited his stellar NFL career — during his 14 seasons, he garnered six Pro Bowl bids and two All-NFL selections — to a burning desire to be top dog in every endeavor. Unfortunately, that same fire steered the former Dallas Cowboy awry in November 2001, when he was busted hauling 213 lb. of marijuana through Louisiana. While out on bail six weeks later, Newton inexplicably was caught ferrying another 175 lb. of pot in the trunk of his car. "I've always been competitive. I've always been in sports," Newton explained. "I couldn't see myself not being the biggest dope man."

Newton explained. "I couldn't see myself not being the biggest dope, man."

Sometimes a comma can make all the difference.

  Good one, Willow.
