wow....10 replies on my last blog (and a friend request via the blog). nice....should ride more often.
still haven't gotten the video yet. in part, my schedule is so f*cked up that matching up times can be tough. plus, since my neighbor's girlfriend (okay, she's also my neighbor, they live together) works nights, when they have time together I like to leave them be. and...

so today, you could say, I accomplished a life goal. at age 35 (damn I'm old), I got onto my neighbor's dirtbike (250 cc engine) and traveled in a circle by myself. he's friends with a guy who owns a field, and I made it known last year I'm interested in learning to ride. so the path started with me learning to shift on a...

I currently ride a Suzuki DRZ400E, converted to supermoto for the street. In it's stock off-road trim, it is a blast. I used to have a Honda CR250 dirt bike and it was terrible for the off-road riding I like (woods and trails). The DRZ is a tad on the heavy side for a dirtbike, but the electric start makes a world of difference in the woods. As a street bike, it is sufficient. It isn't going to burn up the highway, but it is a hoot around town.
Now, pure street bikes is a whole other discussion. I've ridden, raced and crashed my share. My SV650 was by far my favorite.

My guess is it was a Hyabusa. My friend has one and it was deceptively fast. Rode it for a few miles and then gave it back. Few motorcycles scare me. The fact that I went from 40 to 100mph in seconds told me I was on the wrong bike.
quote from a 62 year old guy I work with...
"I'm going to go home now, talk to the wife, and see if she'll let me play in the box the kids came from."
yes, some days, my job is worth it.

That's funny!
so love arguing with people.....really, its fun. you take some creativity and make your argument a logical progression of their argument. or you take their argument to the extreme and watch their faces as you show just how far and harsh their argument can go. case in point....

That's what makes you a hero. I've known people who would walk away and say "not my problem".

That kind of shit pisses me the fuck off.
wow, 2 blogs in one week! guess things are on my mind (or I'm bored).
so fixed the storm door from yesterday...took me a few minutes. take the handle off, remove one pin (allen wrench style) and screw the handle back in. put it all back and done! quite easy if you ask me!
woke up early today (around 4:30 or so). my sleep schedule...

replacing another ceiling fan. this should be fun....I'm also installing a remote control for the fan. the bedroom its going in has no light (in our house, all the rooms have an outlet connected to a light switch for the lights), so the ceiling fan I bought has a light as well. now the argument...my mom wants the holder for the remote by her bed,...

Well done, sir!
hellstorm:
and now the outside handle to the front storm door has fallen off....guess who will be asked to fix that tomorrow!

time to replace the one ceiling fan....fuck, where did 2 of those screws go? well, if I have 1/2 the screws for a non-weight supporting part, it should be okay, right?

I agree with both the above statements. I have witnessed firsthand the effects of ceiling fan installations gone wrong. Better to do it correctly the first time.
hellstorm:
found the screws, all is well....my original plan was to use some of the screws from the first fan until I found the other screws (and put them on instead)....damn screws were hiding in a plastic bag with other screws!
the only "modification" I did was using locking washers in addition to the screws attaching the mounting bracket to the junction box. just a little bit more support IMHO.
all done now!

new blog....so what's new with me? not too much...still processing through everything. then again, in many ways, I'm still processing through my uncle's death in 2004. I did mention I take a long time to fully process things, right? plus I multi-task, so while working on these issues, I'm also working, sleeping, getting ready for the Civil Service Exam, and what not. I do lots...
