I'm going to go through my coin collection to see how much it's worth! Let's start with a 1929 Standing Liberty quarter dollar. Check it out: In terms of silver, it's worth about $3. Talking numismatic

I couldn't resist an old 2nd gen GSXR750 that popped up on Craigslist back in 2016. It didn't come with a clear title (or a fuel tank, or bodywork, or fairings/plastic, or a bunch of other stuff), so the

Sunday morning. Wake up. Get coffee. Get a text: It took me about 20 minutes to decide. My options were be lazy and start drinking too early at home? Or go and try to break my neck on a dirt bike in honor

Most of the time the only thing preventing an old bike from running again is a DIRTY CARBURETOR. (GSXR750 carbs, no airbox, YES I know how to tune bikes w/o airboxes... LOL) There are other things you

I didn't take these, but I own the rights to them. Pics are of me, back when I used to race sport bikes. The bikes in the pics are pretty rare and interesting. '95 Honda RS125: '09 Aprilia RS125: There's

I was walking around Fan Fest on Tejon St. in Colorado Springs a few years ago when I saw Guy Martin working on his bonkers turbo GSXR hillclimb bike the day before the big race. The only thing from Suzuki

About my gift... I'm a fan of this artist named Walton Ford. He does these really subversive Audubon-like natural history paintings. The originals are huge. Even if I could afford one, I wouldn't know

I'll start by saying I have nothing critical to say whatsoever. After three tournament appearances, this is what my record looks like: I play on Sundays because I have stuff to do Monday thru Saturday.

Word to the wise: do not drink and play poker. I repeat: Do not drink and play poker. Just don't do it. To illustrate my point, let's look at a hand where I lost some money betting like a stupid donkey.

Prose goes on... This is, like, super problematic: I don't require my artists to be good people. In my mind, the only requirement is that they create great art. If they create great art and go to prison

REALLY PEOPLE?! Garrison Keillor is hilarious, for one. For two, it sounds like the back touching incident was an accident. Not even a very big one. I've done something like this more times than I can

I was on a heater playing the WPN sit-n-gos w/ the Betcoin skin. I build a cheesy half chip bankroll up to 3 chips, then 15 chips. From $4 to $150 in no time at all. Then I went to sign in earlier and,

I wondered if there was any correlation between the hard-fork news and the recent price gains in BTC.  I typed "segwit2x" into Google Trends, and this is what it showed me: Then I typed in "bitcoin"

"Someone or something or some combination of people and things is using YouTube to systematically frighten, traumatise, and abuse children, automatically and at scale, and it forces me to question my own

What's going on now reminds me of the run-up to 2008.  Everything is so expensive.  Why are crytpocurrencies that offer zero value trading for what they're trading for?  Why is everything

I haven't participated as much as I think I should have.  I think I started out on the wrong foot.  I was pretty bummed out about losing my job 2 weeks before Trump won the election, which only

Like the real thing, these paper models take a considerable amount of time to assemble.  I vaguely remember hearing about these long, long ago. The first time Paul Crowe at Kneeslider.com wrote about

It's not that it won't hold  in a world of bitcoin millionaires   and tech billionaires and  too  big to fail bankers,  or a world with imaginary  welfare queens and bad

There's no shortage of "failure porn" on the Internet, most of it related to business.   They say you have to fail before you succeed. Most of that is bollocks. Some people win and just keep winning,

I make between $400 and $600 a month writing on the Internet.  I spend between 8 and 10 hours a month writing-on-the-Internet-for-money.   Writing is my side hustle. I used to want to make it
