Man … it seems like the more of these I post, the more morons actually send me emails asking if I’ll help them out. You’d think that whole part about reporting people to the FBI and letting the Military Commissions Act ruin their lives would bother most people … but not these brave sacks of stupid! Anyway, on to letters.

I hate that stupid movie. Never even seen more than the first 5 minutes of it; however, I couldn’t decide on a good title for this post so I went with this and I put my second favorite as the RSS feed heading.

After several years of suck, I broke down an bought a new bike :-)

You know, maybe I should start playing World of War Craft. It’s probably better than running a business. That way, I’d at least be doing something fun at 3 AM instead of slaving away for nothing.

That’s right! I finally sold the Ninja. I sold it to some guy that apparently has a 1100 GSX that has nitrous on it and he wanted it for something smaller to cruise around. He came with a trailer and asked if he could hear it run. Sure enough, the silly thing fired up without issue after a jump and the guy said he’d take it. And with that … the Ninja is gone from my sights!

As soon as we get some sun shine, I’ll get some nice pretty pictures of the replacement :cool:
