  1. You actually pay attention to Chris fucking Childers? Are you on the fucking spectrum? Chris Childers is a fucking clown. He's a sideshow freak. He's a moron. His one purpose in life is to set up Rick fucking Neuheisel, who, despite his failures, actually knows something about football. Childers is an idiot that buys jerseys on Ebay and has them tailored.
  2. absolutely. The "exodus" from CA has made us greater. Most of those that have left are total shitheads, and they've gone to shithead-friendly places.
  3. Quoting myself: WaPo has a story which I'm unable to link, saying that the SS has shown Trump MULTIPLE photos of him golfing, and told him "if they can photograph you with a zoom lens, they can shoot you with a scoped rifle". Dotard brushed them off, saying his courses are safe. In fact, his courses are not safe. They have city streets adjacent to them, and a multitude of other security issues. Obama loved to golf, but almost always golfed on a military base, often in Hawaii, but sometimes at Andrews. That's MUCH better security wise. Reagan gave up golf after a nut busted into the course when he was playing and took hostages. Reagan said his love for the game was irrelevant if it endangered others. After that incident, he only golfed on Annenburg's private course. But fucking Dotard don't give a fuck.
  4. So, MTG says the golf trip was a last-minute thing, and not on any schedule. Assuming that's the case, how the fuck is the SS supposed to secure a fucking golf course on a whim? How about the fat fuck doesn't go golfing unless he gives the SS 24 hours to get it's shit together security-wise?
  5. Well, he only posted " I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT" so it's open to debate I suppose.
  6. Thank you for attending my Ted Talk.
  7. And yes, there aren't 90+ bikes in that photo. The other angle shows shit that would dox the dude, so I'm not including it.
  8. on the pic with all the bikes, at the top right you can see a loft area at the top. That's the bar, and he's got a few bikes up there that he displays and doesn't regularly ride.
  9. So that was me for whatever reason. Tapa insists I'm somebody else. Here's the story with the Mack: When this dude was young, he drove one for some shit job he had. One day, he's driving along with a buddy, and they see one of these. He tells the buddy "I drove one of those when I was a kid". Buddy says "you should buy one", fully knowing dude is rich as shit and can buy anything. Later that night, they are drinking, and on the internet, and walla, he buys this old Mack and fully restores it.
  10. Now, I will post from Tapa as somebody else, although I've only had 1 sock account my entire life (and that was to fuck with Dillo Pad).
  11. I don't recall posting here before. I don't own a bike currently. I've owned a GSXR-1100 which was stupid-scary fast. I actually inherited that bike when my BIL was murdered. It was too much bike for me. Went faster than I ever wanted to go, and cost a fortune to insure. I sold it after riding it for several months. I also had a '68 BSA 650 Lightning. Fucking cool, but honestly, a POS. Always with electrical problems. Electrical system was "Lucas", which, I suppose, is the Limey version of "Motorola" or some such. I owned and restored this bike before the internet was a thing, so parts were a motherfucker to source. There was a "British Bike Shop" in East Los Angeles, owned by a grumpy old fucker. I used to make the drive up there periodically to look for parts, or ask him to keep on the lookout for parts. One day I was bitching about an electrical problem, and he says to me "do you know why the British drink warm beer?" "No" "Lucas Refrigerators". I've owned a bunch of dirt bikes, and I've got my original 1976 Honda XR75 here, and it's fucking worn out from me (and every relative younger than me), riding it. I intend to fully restore it for my grandson in the next year or two. He's 5 now, so I've got some time to get it done, and it should be a fun project. Now, here's a story about another guy I met. My girl is from Miami, and her family is still in the area. We visit her sister in Coral Gables. She belongs to the yacht club, and we go there for drinks. I'm introduced to a few of her friends, and I pull up a barstool and get a beer, and start with small talk. Somehow, the guy I'm sitting next to is talking about a health problem he had...cardiac. He's telling me that they are putting a stent in, and going though his leg to do so. Right before they put him under, he asks the doctor, "which leg are you going through?". The doc is an Indian fellow. Doc says "your right". He says "please go into my left. I need my right to kick my motorcycle". The punch line is the doc, with the thick accent asking "why would you kick a motorcycle?". So we are getting along pretty well by this point, and laughing and drinking. I say to him that you must have and old bike if you still have a kick start. He says "I have a few old Harleys". My SIL is within earshot, and she's had a few drinks, and she's got a big mouth even when sober. She start in with "A FEW? YOU'VE GOT A FEW? YOU'VE GOT A FUCKING HUNDRED". He calmly says "I don't have a hundred". She, as naggy as possible, keeps pounding at him: "HOW MANY...IF NOT A HUNDRED HOW MANY". She finally broke the dude, and I think the answer was "94". She finally leaves to bug somebody else, and I'm going "you've got 94 fucking Harleys"? Turns out, yeah. he does. We keep drinking and keep getting along, and he invites me (and by extension, the GF and the mouthy sister) to the "clubhouse". It's a fucking tilt-up warehouse where he's got a kickass bar setup that will hold about 25, the biggest TV I've ever seen, and all the bikes. He's also got a couple corvettes, an old porsche, and an El Camino. Oh, and a Mack 3 axle tractor, fully restored, from the '50's. Dude is a VERY successful developer of high-rise residential projects all over Florida. He also owns a Bell "Long Ranger" Helo, and a King Air, which he uses to get from project-to-project. Nice guy. There were no museum pieces among the bikes. They are all ridden (as regularly as one can ride that many bikes).
  12. I've traveled quite a bit, and my T-Mobile service has always worked well for me. Off the top of my head, Japan, Argentina, D.R., G.B., Italy, Belize.
  13. I don't get too worked up over awards show, but how the fuck is The Bear a comedy? It's up against Curb? That's just silly.
  14. Hol-ee shit. Dodgers have 3 dingers in a row. 7 run 9th and still going.
  15. Make that 6 runs.
  16. Dodgers-Braves was tied after 8. Dodgers go apeshit in the 9th and no-lube the braves 5 runs worth.
  17. Exactly. There's a fucking board out there somewhere. Navarro's job is to rock his fucking ass off. Somebody else is running the mix.
  18. "People are coming here...they're speaking languages nobody's ever heard before".
  19. Perp is 60ish. This guy it too young.
  20. You're right. Call him "the pointer"
  21. I shouldn't have posted that, as my experience is so limited I have no idea if it's typical. I've done 3 MRI acquisitions/installs. All leased. Could be coincidence. and all more than a decade ago.
  22. Rupar's tweet says "feet", the actual speaker says "yards". Trump was 2 holes from the shooter, or, in golf terms, about 12 strokes.
