Burning Bridges

So why is it so bad to burn your bridges? Are we that affraid of what's ahead that we always need to know we can move backward if we need to? Why would we want to move backward? Are we so unsure of our forward movement that we need that bridge there for us to travel back across with our tail between our legs?
I say learn from the past. Don't go back to it. Move ahead with conviction. Know what's ahead. Study your path, know the route. If for some unfortunate reason the path you have chosen is the wrong one, change direction, just don't go back. There was a reason you moved ahead in the first place.
Don't move carelessly. Think it out. Make sure it is the right decision for you. Once you are confident you are moving in the right direction........ pop open a cold beer, light a match and watch that fucker burn!

The Bully

So I did a little riding this past weekend. Feels good to be on the bike..... one problem. I rode with the one they call the "Bully" He looks harmless..... LOOKS!

As I was sucking wheel with my tongue in my spokes I thought of a little song to be sung to the theme of "Flipper" You know, Flipper the Dolphin and it goes like this.....

They call him Bully, Bully, faster than lightening
You all can see
He's faster than thee
And we know Bully, lives in a world full of freddies
frying their leggies
with the greatest of ease!!!!!!!!!

Holy smackers that boy can ride!

M.I.A.


So I haven't had the time to contribute to my own blog in over a month!!! Trying to get all the ducks in a row before the move. Trying to smack a couple of curve balls that have been thrown my way has really kept me on my toes but has also kept me away from the bike and it's driving me insane!

Issue #1
We finally got it. After a long intence search, we finally landed a home we are both happy with. The Enforcer and King were an enormous help to us in finding the perfect place to hang our hats. We could have never done it without either of them, and will be forever indebted to them both. Rocco's for life on me, Billy!!!
Issue #2

Work has been insane!!!!!! I have never been one to believe in short timers syndrome and I hate when people blow off current responsibilities and only look to the future. Do you think the Patriots are looking past the Colts straight to the Superbowl? I doubt it. So I have been putting in more hours than I normally like to with 12 hours days, working days off, etc, etc to get things ironed out and all issues resolved before I take off. It's kind of like the sprint at the end of the race. You sit in do your work when you have to, and save the best for last!


Issue #3


OK, maybe I have short timers with this one. It is pretty hard to keep up with this place when I have no interest in living here. Mow the lawn, trim the bushes, vaccuum, clean, ugh.... Love the place, but I am done!





Issue #4

I have no pictures of this tragedy, but the "S" is in the shop. Not any shop, the body shop!! MOTHER F'ER, SON OF A @#$%&, GOD *&%^, CRAP, $#*& EATING, MONKEY F,ING, STUPID F!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At the max speed of 10mph I rear ended some poor little unsuspecting little girl........wait that sounds bad. Let me start over........ I nailed some 19yo in the rear end........nope still bad, try again. As I was gazing out the window on my drive to work the other day, the car in front of me decided it would be a good thing to stop for the red light. One problem with that is after a sleepless night my periferal vision was a little off. Sadly the new rotors and pads I installed a couple of months ago did not engage with enough force to prevent me from ramming the car in front of me. No body was hurt except my beautiful "S"! Estimated damage reaching $3000!

Memories, from the corner of my mind..... blah blah blah blah blah blah memories... of the way we were....


Issue #5

I will not disclose this issue at this time as it is not an issue at all rather something that has consumed my thoughts 24/7.

So I guess those are the main issues. Today, finally, I don't have to work, I don't have to do anything around the house, the cars in the shop so I can't do anything to it........... I'm goin' for a ride!!!
