hey miles andy and jim!

dave, apprentice wages are better than NO wages!

jim,the dry basement must be a relief! and the wedding comes and goes and nothing really changes, except for joint tax filing.

i am ditching the yamaha xj750 and i bought my sisters 1981 kawasaki KZ 440. it gets 60mpg, the yami only got 50, and its in very good condition, and the yami is not. also, parts are cheap for the kawi, NOT for the yami. one downfall however, is although the yami had one style point...the kawi has ZERO! i cant wait to be laughed at.

If you want a crappy job done by a Jamaican cheap, hit up Jamaican Jeff on FB. He's in New Haven, but did all 7 windows on the VW for $100.

Steady light rain down here, and I'm supposed to be installing windows.... overlooking the Sound. (no ****, I have pumpjacks footed IN the water)

My sciatica hasn't let up for 3 days. This is from when I got run over in 1984.

Aaron, you want to be laughed at?
I can get a plastic top box for your 440 and give you one of my dayglo green safety vests.
