| Personal Quote: | West Philadelphia, I was born and raised. on the playground is where i spent most of my days. if its fast and cheap, it ain't good. if its cheap and good, it ain't fast. if its good and fast, it ain't cheap. i may be wrong. i've been wrong before and, unless i'm wrong; i'm sure i'll be wrong again. i like to ride so much because windnoise completely drowns-out all the voices in my head. never take me seriously... EVER. i used to be indecisive, but i'm not so sure anymore. motorcycling is not "dangerous". It is a calculated risk. Catching a yellow jacket in your shirt at 70 mph can double your vocabulary. i'd rather not tip-toe thru life just so i can arrive safely at death. get it in when you can cuz nobody gets out alive. |
