RE: Chocolate Master
That's a no joke. Ketchup-it's what's for lunch. I like some and I don't like some Americans. Same goes for every race, creed, color or sexual persuasion. I'm a huge believer in percentages and the fact

RE: Cleaning my top and bottom
First off-I am horrible at cleaning. That's especially horrible since I once owned half a cleaning service :) There's always a motorcycle that needs attention or a book that needs read now or something

Damn. Over a mile? That's some serious long shooting. To the question: Yes, I have become an expert at a few things. I was probably on my way to becoming an expert shooter til I lost my dominate eye when

Well, I admire your dedication to ideals even though I am a little dubious at the perceived gain. The obvious path of least resistance is to buy the flowers and meaningless gift so as to not stir the pot

The country was originally chartered as a Federation with the Federal Government having practically NO power. That has changed significantly over the years. Our civil war was fought under the banner of

Hey. Let's not be so harsh on the Yanks. What makes you think that the now great country that KNOWS that catsup is a vegetable (and it counts as a serving of vegetable in the school lunch program) would

RE: Weekend Camping Trip
I know precisely what you are saying. I love that I can smell the world, and feel it. I say often 'Every hour I spend on a motorcycle includes a 59 minute vacation'. Always nice to meet a kindred spirit.

I'll watch out for them. Phoenix has a couple of (rumored) great venues that I've never been to.

My understanding (remember I speak 'murican and there are differences from those Englanders) is that Master is correct ONLY ON THE VESSEL. Ashore he becomes Captain. Aboard ship the Master was second only

Hey Joan! Really good to see you. Thanks for stopping by! I'll do at least one more test trip before I leave for a long ride in late June. I hope to be gone for near a month with at least 10 nights camping,

Particularly when I'm in a campground. Normally I'm out in the pucker brush and crawling out of my shelter with out dressing has no impact on anything. But in this case, neither will stepping out of the

I promise that next time I'll camp in National Forest Service dispersal camping. The rules there require a shovel (hence the auto pack entrenching tool) an axe (mine is more of a hatchet sort of axe-they'll

Are you my kind of girl or what? My profile says I'm a motorcycle junkie-I've ridden for 57 years and owned some pretty cool bikes over that time. I have a sign posted on my wall right near by (I just

WoooooHooooo I'm back in the saddle again! The campground had specific raised spaces for your tents-along with a quaint 'no moats allowed' prohibition on them. The idea of it! I did have my entrenching

Hey ya! Really good to see you. The cot is almost rigid but does have a suspension frame underneath it. And it folds up to less than 40 inches long in seconds. Literally seconds. In just one trip it has

It was a great trip, and the tent really worked well. I can actually get upright in it (meaning I don't have to lay down to change pants) and did surprisingly well in the wind. Looking at it set up in

I've been a Hagar fan since about the time of this video. I was really happy when he took over from David Lee because of his voice and ability. I was also really happy when he went back to being the front

Master, as spoken in England English is a really specific term. Short for Master under God from back in the day when the Captain was the sole arbitrator of everything, every single thing, that happened

This is genuinely year round camping country. Had I been ready earlier I'd have probably gone to Death Valley and/or Joshua Tree. It's NEVER too cold to camp at DV :) I won't make the UP this year. It

I'm rather tall-but shrinking. I'm just a bit over 6'3" according to my doctor. I was pretty close to 6'5" in my 20s. I earned the 'Big' part of my name. The motorcycle and trailer worked flawlessly.
