Ride of his life!

This could have ended soooo badly. I couldnt help but laugh!

The wheel chair of a 21-year-old man became lodged in the grill of a semi truck as the vehicle pulled out of a gas station. The semi then began driving down Red Arrow Highway, with its new and unusual hood ornament still attached.


It stuns me that he was unfazed by his road trip!

As of today.......

Paris Hilton went to Jail.

In Other news.... 14 American Soldiers died in June in 4 days. Gotta have priorities.


A poem for a certain someone.

When we were together,
You always said you'd die for me.
Now that we've broken up,
I think it's time you kept your promise.


Have a better weekend than I have!

Happy Tuesday!

Immigration at it's best:

A serious problem if you don’t speak English very well, and you’re drunk as a skunk, and your remote, one-car accident leaves you dependent on telling 911 exactly where you are [911 dispatcher, repeatedly: "I need your location." Andres Vasquez, repeatedly: "I’m under the [expletive deleted by newspaper] truck"]


I need this Job:

San Antonio elementary school principal Elizabeth Rojas was finally removed after she failed the mandatory certification test, for the, er, 38th time. 37, no problem, apparently. Hey, wait! She’s not much of a loser; they demoted her to another position at the school at "slightly less than" her $77K salary, said WOAI-TV.

Observations

Spiderman Three- Not as great as hyped, but still good.

Car salesmen Suck big ones

Being woke up at 3 AM with a drunkin idiot driving in my front yard- Sucks even more

The cops that come nearly an hour after calling them while the drunkin idiot continues to drive through my yard.... Well there are no words that can describe how mad I was.

The shotgun I pulled out after the first 45 mins did scare him away very quickly.


Hope the rest of the week goes better!

To our soldiers.

I have never been in the trenches, literally, as you. I have never been in the desolate desert. I have been over seas and alone in a nation that did not know me or want me. I have been alone and scared without brother or sister to keep me company. But I have never been where you are. I am past the ability of serving my country in the manner that you do. As each day passes, I can\’t help but think what I would give to switch places with you. Here in America, in our homeland, I see faces every day that take for granted what it is that you fight for. YOU fight for US. You fight for the the basic undeniable freedom that I DO NOT take for granted. I would swap places with you but that is not my calling. My calling is to be here as a citizen of this great country that you defend. If the tables were turned and I were in your position, I would want to hear this. You make me proud. Every story I hear about the sacrifice you pay makes me cry. This is not some propaganda bullshit or some news story gone bad…I am an American citizen that looks to my God above thanking every free breath that I get to take because of men and women like you. I am a member of the freedom loving groups and an active member of my local community. My sons are developing…hopefully into the freedom loving, God blessed men that you are. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

About Time

That a very smart and certainly observant Judge sent a one truly self absorbed Paris Hilton to 45 Days in jail! It's the best thing that has happened to me all week and I don't even read tabloids or watch one of 30 Entertainment cry-a-sodes (lets not forget to Hassle the Hoff and his drunken ramblings) I almost missed it with all that's going on with the war and all. God knows the Main Stream Media cover what our brave men and women do for our freedom, and that they come home with real mental and stress problems from a war that torments them long after they are home. It's a shame that Americans have not found priorities and looked at the reasons to be proud to be Americans. I say throw her in there and teach her a lesson.


Pass me a Jack and Coke
Have a happy weekend!

A man not named in a Winona (Minn.) Daily News report checked in to Community Memorial Hospital, bloody with nine stab wounds after an apparent attack which he said he must have slept through and only noticed when his girlfriend asked him about the blood.


And I thought I slept deep!

Lite....

Here’s the guy who dropped into a pizza restaurant in central London, jumped up on a table, and administered a self-penectomy . . . . . And here’s the guy who apparently (it was from Germany’s Bild) camped overnight in the warm ATM vestibule at a bank in Wiesenburg, and brought his horse in with him [bonus: photo].

Have a great day!

9:10 AM

The phone rings, I am at work with the news of VT ringing loudly on the television.
My son who I said goodbye to at 7:15 this morning calls to tell me that there is a gunman on the loose and his school is being put on lock down. He then proceeds to tell me he is not currently at school, he is sitting a mere 6 blocks away on the school bus. They are not letting anyone in or out of school and they have to wait on the bus until they are allowed in. 6 blocks away! sitting on a bus. Finally they lead the bus with full police guard they unload at the school with police protection they are lead into the school and told to go quickly.

It turns out that a bank 3 blocks away was held up at gun point, where 3 men thought they could get away with a robbery. Since I have heard that 1 has been shot and taken to the hospital, the 2nd has been taken into custody, and the 3rd is still on the run... god knows where.

In that moment that I received that call my heart sank to my feet. I am so glad he is safe now. Where I can smell his hair and touch his face and know today he will be OK. But what kills me as a parent is that we don't know what will happen and at what point we can feel safe.

Here is the link to the story: To close to home for me.

Virginia Tech

33 lives lost My thoughts prayers are with ALL families!As a parent I could not imagine the thought of sending your child to school for an education and see anything like today happen. Kiss your kids and hold them tight, who knows what tomorrow will bring.May the families find strength during this difficult time.

update

The White House and Ford Motor Company now say that spectacular near-miss by President Bush (plugging into the fuel supply of the electric car)didn’t happen the way the Ford CEO told it. [ But, still, is plugging into the fuel supply a possibility? That could make Ford’s legal dept. forget all about the Pinto.]

Nappy Head Ho's

Big fucking whoppy doo. Imus, In a joking matter, called a team, not all of which are black, Nappy headed ho's! Stop the world call Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and the NAACP. Lord knows they have nothing better to do than march in front of NBC. They need the money and the spotlight. How exactly do they make a living anyway? Let me say that what he did say was in fact crass and disturbing, BUT! Had Eddie Murphy, or any other black comedian said it sitting in that very same studio it would have not been given a second thought..... Chris Rock for example goes on black bashing tyrades in his comedy routines.

Just this morning walking my son into school I hear this conversation...

Boy 1- Hey nigger whats up!
Boy 2- Not much black bean?
I kid you not! Guess what color they were? Oh comon you know you want to!

Both were black.... Imagine if 1 white kid said that to a black kid?

Let's just let him go to rehab thats what everyone else gets away with!

**Done venting**

things you don't hear about....

Detroit News buried the lede: This note is ostensibly about the Ford Motor Company CEO grabbing President Bush before he disastrously plugs into the wrong thing at a Ford electric-car demonstration, but, seriously, is this car really that dangerous that it’ll blow up if you mis-plug it? . . . .

and,

You thought Walter Reed was the end of the agony for veterans? The Washington Post reports that almost 400,000 disability claims are pending (135,000 of them for more than 160 days) . . . . .

Too cute

Oh Boy!

People Whose Sex Lives Are Worse Than mine lol
Garth Flaherty, 24, was arrested in Pullman, Wash., allegedly in possession of 93 pounds of stolen underwear, but there’s good news for Garth (despite his having blurted out that he has a "problem"): It’s going to be really hard to find owners willing to come forward and, with authority, identify their particular undies. [Bonus: photo of police layout of some items]


And Joseph Curtis, 64, a social worker in Ottumwa, Iowa, gave up his license as part of a settlement over his possession of child porn (boys) and his doing "inappropriate" things with his dog.

Now I feel much better!

Old Love

A husband in his back yard is trying to fly a kite. He throws the
kite up in the air, the wind catches it for a few seconds, then it
comes crashing back down to earth. He tries this a few more times
with no success. All the while, his wife is watching from the
kitchen window, Muttering to herself how men need to be told how
to do everything.

She opens the window and yells to her husband,"You need a piece of
tail."

The man turns with a confused look on his
face and says,"Make up
your mind. Last night, you told me to go fly a kite."

Losers...

Three guys driving across the Triborough Bridge in NY with 110 packets of cocaine on ‘em and, er, No, I didn’t bring any money for the toll, Did you, No, Did you, Well, no . . ..


Also, A cop in Mims, Fla., saved Gregory Renfroe’s life: He found Renfroe atop a power pole, standing on his recently-disconnected line (overdue bill), attempting to reconnect (and apparently minutes away from having himself lit up).


:)

Awkward moment....

A guy goes to the supermarket and notices a beautiful blond
woman wave to him and says hello.

He's rather taken aback because he can't place where he knows
her from. So he says, "Do you know me?"

To which she replies, "I think you're the father of one of my kids".

Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been
unfaithful to his wife and says, "My God, are you the stripper from my
bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies
watching, while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery???"

She looks into his eyes and calmly says, "No, I'm your son's math teacher."

what a mouser

Cute

The mother of Zachary Rothfeld, 12, filed a lawsuit against the operators of NYC’s Roosevelt Island tram, nine months after that incident that stranded 69 people over the East River for 11 hours until they were rescued. Zachary’s said to be severely, severely traumatized, which was not predicted by his upbeat TV interview right after the rescue: "That didn’t scare me. I remember thinking, I hope there really is a Spider Man."


Wonder if she will drop the Lawsuit?

Big wheels to um Big wheels

My son used to ride his red and black big wheel up and down the sidewalk in from of our house for hours while I watched to make sure he didn't go onto the street or get hit by a teenager backing from the neighbors drive. He would always make sure to look for me from time to time to make sure I was in fact watching. Then he graduated to bicycle riding even with no training wheels! That led to rides around the block and in our neighborhood. We have always made him take a walkie-talkie just in case he needed us and never go more than 4 blocks in any direction of home.

He starts Drivers Education training school (by the way for homeschoolers cost $390.00, ouch) tonight.... I am terrified! How does one phase from that point of having total control of where they are and setting all the rules to letting them make the right decisions? I hope I have led them on the right path, but how can you be sure?

Can I make him 5 again?


:(

O boy!

Look, kids! Mommy bought Syphilis!


This, my friends, is our old friend, The Clap!

Okay how awesome is this... these people ("GIANTMicrobes") actually make plush viruses, bateria, and other goodies, including (drumroll please...) venereal diseases!

They even have bedbugs and bookworms! I'm totally getting my 20 year old brother a bag full from their "Venereals" collection!
Seriously, how funny would it be to give this to someone at like... a sweet 16 or a graduation party or something? Or a bachelor's party ("this will be the last gonorrhea you get, buddy" type thing). I don't know, but if I ever work in a cubicle, I'm SO surrounding my desk with these cute cuddly buggers, especially the Flesh Eaters!
Check out the plush version of what some of you are probably sportin' right this minute!

Get up, come on get down with the sickness!

Just stupid

OK so there is this guy that turns used cooking oil into fuel for his car. He does this for himself only, he doesn't sell it. He is finding a way to rid his life of foreign oil and save money. The restaurants where he gets his oil have been taxed already on this "garbage oil" that would just be thrown into a landfill somewhere. Now our fine government shows up at his doorstep because our local news did a piece on him and his ingenious ways of benefiting the environment. They want to fine him and throw him in jail for 5 years for not paying taxes on his fuel.....WHAT! Yep he isn't paying state taxes aww poor government.... I feel so bad that they cant charge him 2.50 a gallon of gas and screw him out of the hard earn tax dollars they so rightly deserve!

Put it simply... they are harassing him because he found a way to buck the system.
I say good for him I just may have to look into adding cooking oil manufacturing into my home life for my cars.
If you would like to read the article click here it's really interesting!


Let me know what you think!

Dark in here!

A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work. Her 9-year old son comes home unexpectedly, sees them and hides in the bedroom closet to watch. The woman's husband also comes home. She puts her lover in the closet, not realizing that the little boy is in there already.

The little boy says, "Dark in here."
The man says, "Yes, it is."
Boy - "I have a baseball."
Man - "That's nice"
Boy - "Want to buy it?"
Man - "No, thanks."
Boy - "My dad's outside.."
Man - "OK, how much?"
Boy - "$250"


In a few weeks, it happens again that the boy and the lover are in the closet together.


Boy - "Dark in here"
Man - "Yes, it is."
Boy - "I have a baseball glove."
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy,
"How much?"
Boy - "$750"
Man - "Sold."

A few days later, the father says to the boy, "Grab your glove, let's go outside and have a game of catch. " The boy says, "I can't, I sold my baseball and my glove. " The father asks, "How much did you sell them for?"

Boy -"$1,000."

The father says, "That's terrible to overcharge your friends like that... that is way more than those two things cost. I'm going to take you to church and make you confess."

They go to the church and the father makes the little
boy sit in the confession booth and he closes the door.

The boy says, "Dark in here." The priest says, "Don't start that shit again, you're in my closet now."

Who do you idolize?

An old Cardinal lay dying in the hospital. For years he had faithfully served
the people of the Nation's Capital. He motioned for his nurse to come near.

"Yes, Cardinal?" said the nurse.

"I would really like to see Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton before I die."
he whispered.

"I'll see what I can do." replied the nurse.

The nurse sent the request to the Senate and waited for a response. Soon the
word arrived, Kennedy and Clinton would be delighted to visit the Cardinal .

As they went to the hospital, Clinton commented to Kennedy "I don't know why
the old Cardinal wants to see us, but it will certainly help our images."
Kennedy couldn't help but agree.

When they arrived at the Cardinal's room, he took Kennedy's hand in
his right hand and Clinton's hand in his left. There was silence and a look of
serenity on the old Cardinal's face.

Finally, Senator Kennedy spoke: "Cardinal, of all the people you could have
chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you near the end?"

The old Cardinal slowly replied "I have always tried to pattern my life
after our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. "Amen" said Kennedy.

"Amen" said Clinton.

The old Cardinal continued..."He died between two lying thieves. I would
like to do the same."

America's Justice

A U.S. soldier has been sentenced to 100 years in prison after pleading guilty to raping and killing a 14-year-old Iraqi girl and killing three members of her family, The Associated Press reports.



This does not degrade what harm was brought upon this person or her family. The fact remains that a very bad thing occurred and someone was to blame. This soldier did a very bad thing and he was expected to pay for this. So he was convicted and sentence to 100 years. A time that he will most likely spend in a cell reflecting on all that he has done wrong. They might as well plugged his veins with a toxin and put him asleep. His life and the fateful decision he made is essentially gone now.

The crime that he was convicted for was severe and it’s really sad, I digress for repeating this plain fact but, 100 years? What does it really mean to be sentence to 100 years in federal prison?


Just this morning on the radio a local personality was at his wits end involving the case of a foster parent duct tapping his foster son and putting him in the closet for two days, after which he then set the child on FIRE and threw him in the river hoping he destroyed all evidence. What you ask did he get as punishment? 13 years!!!!
WTF People! The justice system is severely fucked up.


now lets just hope that judge can sleep at night!

What ever happened to chivalry?

Toronto, where a male cane-user and a half-blind female cane-user got into it with each other. It involved a sidewalk stand-off in 2005 where both adamantly refused to yield the right of way, followed by a brief caning free-for-all, including joint go-Cheney-yourself moments. If I had been there, it would have been painfully difficult to have done the right thing (i.e., try to separate the two before someone got hurt) because the wrong thing was so mesmerizing. Last week, the judge OK’d the free-for-all but convicted the man of hitting the woman with a spiteful parting shot that she wasn’t expecting.

Eww just Ewww

It was too much for some residents of The Dalles [Oregon] to believe that a rosy-cheeked 82-year-old [married, female] church volunteer with a penchant for gardening and a reputation for kindness actually had sexual intercourse with the 11-year-old boy in her foster care" [wrote The Oregonian]. She reports to start her 3-yr sentence tomorrow after pleading to one count (the kid said it was more). Her husband, fortunately, passed away after the sex but before word got out.

Only three year sentence imagine how damaged for life the 11 year old is!

What a world we live in....

The things we do for love....

A husband and wife came for counseling after 15 years of marriage.
When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate,
painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the years
they had been married.

She went on and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness,
loneliness, feeling unloved and unloveable, an entire laundry
list of un-met needs she had endured over the course of their marriage.
Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of
time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and, after asking
the wife to stand, embraced and kissed her passionately.

The woman shut up and quietly sat down as though in a daze. The
Therapist turned to the husband and said, "This is what your wife
needs at least three times a week. Can you do this?"
The husband thought for a moment and replied,..

"Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays, I golf."

What was he thinking!?

Personal Oppinion

I could give two shits about this crazy Astronaut chick who got a little jealous and wanted to beat down the lover of her boyfriend. What about the soldiers who died in Iraq in just February alone? The Main Stream Media’s post as the top headline that this stupid woman is what should be important to America! The funny thing is now that I read the story, they make it sound like she is insane for doing what she did. I think the opposite, she may be a little crazy but the jealousy attribute is within everyone. Now she took it too far, that does not make her crazy!

Anyway….

Oh and while I'm at it Anna Nicole is NOT newsworthy get off of it already!


Have a great day.

Happy Monkeys

Feng shui, twice removed: First, you hafta believe in feng shui, which is hard enough. But then, you hafta believe (despite a lack of authoritative text) that even animals can get all messed up if the feng shui isn’t just right. The Los Angeles Zoo cleared both hurdles and paid $4,500 to a consultant to fix up the happy new home of the golden monkeys on loan from China.

I don't think Los Angeles has anything better to spend 4,500 on heck just a drop in the bucket to make monkeys happy! And I don't know about you but I only like my monkey to be happy... err that didn't sound right.

:)

Happy hallmark, flower, candy company screw you over day.

No I do not want a bouquet of flowers that would usually cost 10-20 bucks (now selling for 60-80), nor do I want a big box of chocolates that widen my ass even that much more. OR do I want a card that cost 5 bucks that will inevitably gather a load of dust then meet it's demise in the trash can. I may not be a typical woman and have to brag to all my friends how Sweet my other half was on VD. Screw it.

What can he do if he wants to is umm say cook dinner, yes gasp actually COOK! Or maybe even run me a bubble bath, a nice massage would do the trick. So St Valentine in all his infinite wisdom created VD (not the STD) So that men can be miserable if they don't buy the right thing I say let him off the hook and save your cash there are many things to do that don't cost a thing!


Exiting soapbox with applause from men everywhere.....

That’s Messed Up

Army still short-changing soldiers on defense: Remember "Shock and Awe"? The March 2003 display of super-destructive, yet precision bombs made the world think there was nothing American technology couldn't’t bring to war. Well, here we are, four years later, and the Pentagon still hasn’t armored U.S. soldiers nearly as well as it technologically could. There’s that NBC News report on rocket propelled grenade-defending technology that Israel loves, yet the Pentagon won’t go there because it prefers a competing system made by Raytheon (wonder how much that contract has cost us, or what politician is in the pocket there) that won’t be ready before, er, 2011. And then the Washington Post reported yesterday that even armor upgrades on the Humvee (just to keep the IEDs from blowing through them, not neutralizing them) is still a work in progress. Y’see, the U.S. needed to attack Iraq in March 2003 and not a bit later, even though it was short in equipment by around $56B, and obviously it hasn’t caught up yet.

That my friends is BULLSHIT

so true

Poor OJ

O.J. "Can’t Remember," Even When He’s Making Stuff Up? Leaked transcript excerpts of the ill-fated Fox TV interview that was to kick off publication of If I Did It apparently puts O.J. in the curious position of saying he couldn’t remember some details of things he, according to the book contract, was supposed to be making up in the first place. Asked whether he took off his glove before he grabbed the knife (handed to him by his accomplice, "Charlie," he said), he told interviewer Judith Regan, "You know, I had no conscious memory of doing that, but obviously I must have because they found a glove there."

Yo, O.J., you’re supposed to have "no conscious memory" of any of these things because they didn’t happen to you.

100th Post

Just noticed upon loggin in that this is my 100th post! O well not that they were flabergasting posts anyway.


I have decided to foward my all time new favorite blog.. He is a genious I must say!
Tell me what you think....

Lord of the Idiots!


Enjoy!

happy hump day!

ramblings...

The Shiite Ashura day came and went yesterday, once again showcasing the world’s, er, "diversity." Some Muslims believe they’re not holy unless (in tribute to the suffering of some 7th-century saint named Hussein) they slash themselves all to hell, blood streaming, etc., and start indoctrinating their urchins at age 6 or younger to cut themselves up, too. Said one Lebanese objector, "When the rest of the world is going to the moon, look where these people are—still drawing blood from their heads."


Also...

What if we created the ultimate toilet and you would never have to [leave]?" That was a Roto Rooter guy, thinking up a contest. So they pimped up a toilet to offer as grand prize: 20-inch flat screen TV, TiVo, iPod with toilet paper in docking station; bike-pedal exerciser, laptop computer, Xbox 360, DVD player, refrigerator with beer tap, cup warmer/cooler, fan, and a couple of more things.

Madam Palosi's daughter...

has been a busy girl....
Alexandra Pelosi’s Gotcha Documentary: On Thursday night, HBO debuts the Speaker’s daughter’s "Friends of God" video, including a pre-disgrace episode with pastor Ted Haggard joking with two other evangelicals about how often their wives "climax." Also on the show: drive-through services, Christian pro wrestling, biblical mini-golf, and a conversation with an ex-career woman who decided she’d rather stay home, give birth 10 times, and dress like "Little House on the Prairie."

News That’s Just Too Sweet:

News That’s Just Too Sweet: Fox has bought the Survivor creator’s latest reality show, which pits parents against each other to answer questions from elementary school textbooks ("Are You Smarter Than a Fifth-Grader?"). What a great job to have (selecting the most charismatic wannabes who already know they're going to be intellectual schlumps, just to be on teevee)!



Furthermore, in that vein: 22 ordinary middle-class people, i.e., of average ignorance, fell completely for a Louisiana woman’s far-fetched scam, which netted her almost $1m. She told them she was a CIA agent and therefore had access to a satellite imaging system that could scan their bodies for disease and that there was no muss or fuss to it because CIA agents would do all the administering of the scans by coming into their homes while they were asleep. "Solid, middle-class, educated citizens" was how a prosecutor described these victims.
yeah ummmm can I sign you up?

Yup-Works for me!

OhMiBod

Here’s an advance in teledildonics (i.e., where you and a sex partner [yeah, first you have to find a partner], insert respective devices connected by USB cable and high-speed Internet, and synchronize your movements) [from BoingBoing.net]. Another advance from last week’s Las Vegas adult electronics expo: vibrators that run from your iPod (the OhMiBod), even though, said a buyer for the Good Vibrations emporium, "Not everyone is going to want a dual-motor, harmonizing, 15-speed vibrator." Says Who!

Holy Hell I would never leave the house!

interesting (to me at least)

Proof once again that the only really clever criminals are the smugglers, as a schoolteacher tried to sneak her prisoner-husband 2½ grams of heroin and a scalpel, inside her tampon . . . .


There was a family feud in Sydney, Australia, over something or other that wasn’t disclosed, but 60 people were involved, and 19 have been arrested so far, and though one of the participants had a gun, the others had "knives, baseball bats, metal poles, planks, branches, cricket bats, pick handles, screw drivers, golf clubs, curtain rods, and glass bottles," according to the Daily Telegraph, and also hammers and machetes.

Wild Ride

Today is my birthday... yes I turned 34. I had the day off and wanted adventure.

To reward myself I decided to do my favorite thing Ride my ATV! I found a trail that travels up a ridge to the north running along an old fence line and then when you get along way up the trail it make a left turn around a sink hole and travels west down a narrow ridge. It is a beautiful trail, and then I came to the edge of the world, but being educated but not to smart I knew the world wasn't flat so I put my bike in 4-wheel, put it in low gear and gripped both hand breaks and started moving down the trail slowly and after I had gone passed the point of no return I had big deep ruts and a log laying in the trail. I stopped to study my situation and I concluded it wasn't good. I looked up and seen where others had made a trail along the ridge just above the one I was on, so I thought if I could maybe climb the side of the bank and get to the upper trail I could live through this ordeal. So I started turning slowly and it didn't take but a few feet to make things worse. Now I had one wheel going up, one going into a deep rut and one rear wheel high in the air. I figured out any more of this and me and the bike were going down this hill like a snow ball except there wasn't any snow and it was going to hurt. With everything balanced on disaster I desided I had to get off the bike if I was going to get out of this so I started easing myself off until I had one foot on the ground and then the other. Now I'm standing on the down hill side holding the bike from rolling over and by moving very slowly I gave it gas and eased it up the bank to the better trail. Now that I survived I will live to do something dumb another day.
Some of the tougher trails can be survived with about 90% good luck and 10% dumb luck. I know we only live once, but I'd like to make it a lot longer. It's not often you have your whole life flash before your eyes I only wish I could stop it and change somethings. But, riding the trails I'm sure I'll get a chance to see it again. Fun is what you make it, fear just shows up. It kinda put things in perspective. I will ride again :)

My Wish

My Wish for You in 2007


May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts. May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet of $200 bills. May love stick to your face like Vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May your clothes smell of success like smoking tires and may happiness slap you across the face and may your tears be that of joy. May the problems you had forget your home address! In simple words ............

May 2007 be the best year of your life!!!
