Ok It's Sunday night...Kman is getting text messages from customers..Like I need this. Can we set up an installation time for something that has not been manufactured yet.....No...not really. But Kman..You said it would only two to three weeks?  Yes I did. You did get my message about a fucking Tornado that knocked my manufacturing facility off line for a week???....I see! Well you do have eight other bathrooms to use....I need to change this business model....I would like nothing more than to leave this customer with the folks at a certain entertainment company....As soon as they get out of Federal Prison......Good people really....Like it's their fault , that people like weird shit. |

Kman you got the model my friend, just remember they ain't going anywhere else because they love the kman's shit... WHo cares what they want.. They don't need anything, and if they do go somewhere else.. Well, bonus for you, because they will have to get the custom shower from where again? ;D Like Neil says bra, find that place and hold onto it. It was 12 h today, instead of 8, I had to find that place a few times today...  Yeah I agree MT is sort of a beautiful chaos... Even if you don't like the tune make sure you listen to the last min, I think it will cheer you up! |

No Bike.....A Buddy of mine crashed over the Weekend..cracked his skull....Hard sell....l be lucky if he can do do simple math...I still want to ride..and ride I will! Major bummer. I hope your buddy comes out of it ok eventually. My wife takes every opportunity to point things like this out to me whenever she thinks I'm thinking of getting one. I found a dirt bike I want real bad today. I used to do enduro racing. Kept getting progressively injured with each race. The final straw was center punching a 10" pine tree at about 30 mph. Bent the bike up, put me in the hospital overnight for observation of heart function, but did not hurt the tree. Her words were "That's it! You're done and you're selling that #*$(% thing! I DON'T DO VEGETABLES!!!!" I guess my first mistake was taking her on a trail ride for her first motorcycle experience. Didn't go over well. Seems I did the same thing on our first horse ride in the mountains. Sliding down a steep muddy hill and then crossing a belly deep snow drift across a ravine just didn't meet up with her expectations. She just doesn't understand the concept of "the scarier it is and the more you hurt when you're done the more fun you had". |

I'm really sorry about your friend, kman. That's a tough break. Does he have a family? My condolences to all who love and care for him. They're in for a rough ride. Hopefully, all will come out right in the end. It's hard to predict, for sure, how brain injuries are going to go ... particularly, if the patient is still pretty young and healthy. They can amaze you!

Sorry to hear about your friend, Kman.
People used to come up to me all the time and tell me about some horrific motorcycle crash that just happened and try and tell me that it's too dangerous and I should stop riding. I started doing the same to them whenever I saw or heard of a horrific car accident. Funny thing is, they never stopped driving their car to work ... but they got the point and stopped reporting tragic motorcycle accidents to me.
It's unfortunate but tragedy is always going to be present. It doesn't matter if you're riding a bicycle or motorcycle, driving a car or a big-rig, a passenger on a train or in a airplane, walking on a sidewalk, or sitting in a restaurant ... if it's your time? ... it's your time. So enjoy what little precious time you have here on earth.
I ride everyday to work. So does my wife. Motorcycle riding has been good for our souls. We're happier and enjoy life a lot better.
Ride safe!
Thoughts and Prayers for your friend and his family

My wife won't let drive any motorcycles anymore cause #1 I drive them like a car #2 I think it was the wheelie on a harley in a friends back yard (filled with people) during a bbq that put the fork in it for me   Skill and big cajones just aren't appreciated like they used to be, eh?! |

Condolences to K. Gone pretty fast in my life but never on two wheels. Funny thing happened the other day. Was going into a resturant and parked outside was a new Honda CBR750. As I was admiring it up close the most gorgeous blond walks up and asks if it was my bike. I said sure. You want a ride? She says sure and proceeds to put on a helmet and gets on the bike and rides off. Figures. My kinda luck. Then my wife walks up and asks Who was that?  |

Kman, you are starting to remind me of a friend I have in Dallas I used to buy some calves from. We where in Denver at the International Stock Show and was talking about weired things that has happened and he told me this story that HE SWEARS on His Mothers Grave that it was true. His neighbors wife bought her husband a Harley for Christmas. Christmas eve they had a big Ice storm so their was at least a inch or two of Ice on the ground. The husband couldn't wait to take it for a whirl so he did. It went fine except coming back up the drive he lost control and He and the bike went through their front plate glass window and landed in their living room. They called a ambulance because he had a few cuts and bruises but not that bad. He told his wife he would get a ride back in a cab when he got stitched up. While he was gone his wife started to clean up the gas that was spilled on the carpet and picking up the glass. She squeezed out the rags filled with gas down the toilet. When he got home from the Hospital he had to take a Crap in the bathroom. While sitting on the toilet, he lit a smoke up and the toilet exploded and blew him through the shower door. Now he has 3"rd degree burns on his ass , a concussion and more cuts. The ambulance was called again and while the medics where taking him out they drooped him on the ice breaking his leg. My Friend told me this 30 Years ago and I still laugh my ass off every time I think of it.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that no matter how bad you think things are, just remember that their is always somebody that has it 10x worse than you out there in the world and then you can think of the good things that you still have going for you.

Update...I really appreciate your comments ...the lurkers included that thought enough to send a PM.
I showed up today with some fresh baked Italian cookies to get my buddy to eat...Trying to save him from the feeding tube. He recognized me as a friend...but just could not remember my name...Thats OK..It's early...did not let go of my hand. Brand new chopper...only two inches of clearance for the foot pegs...Well..It caught the pavement...sent him ass over tea kettle...and smashed his skull on the pavement with an illegal helmet. What a week...............I may have had some shit happen to me this week ...But others come first
