CHAR... I have been thrown out of better places than that office... I am leaving on my terms, and I have NO doubt I will make it. There have been comments about the possibility of a heart attack... my response is... won't happen... I'm a carrier... I may cause a few though! They only give me a retirement check for one person... no matter how many people are in my head! If I got a retirement account for each one... I'da bailed several years ago! I gotta be at least 50 with at least 20 years service. I will be 50 in July... and 9 months later I will have 20 years! I did 8 years as a local cop before this. Digger... A couple of years back when things were worse than they are now in the office... the office joke was... "The only thing keeping someone from going postal was that on any given day... not knowing where to start!" Not very concerned there... I have seen them all shoot... I am the district firearms instructor/rangemaster... and used to shoot competitively in tactical matches... and did quite well considering I was NOT shooting a $6,000.00 dramatically modified space gun. Sam... The 1000 foot skidmark is because of____________. You avoiding the question????? And those three names would be? Me, myself and I? I wouldn't know how to answer that question... I never stopped and tried to identify the number of voices in my head. Nor do I want to know... I an just enjoying all the company!!! I only get concerned when this happens... "I hear voices... and they don't like you!"

The 1000 foot skidmark is because of____________. "dennis helped fix my bike" I will ressurect the dead! just need some time! OH, yeah and cash! The plugs show no signs of any type of cylinder damage, leading me to speculate that it may have been an oil pump problem.....(or related) I'm just guessing right now. I pulled the primary last night and the tranny is OK..... I think? I'll know more sometime this weekend.....If I can suffer through pulling it apart again.... But, yes the Motor is "locked up" |

Jeff... When can I come over to help work on your bike? Sam... Immediately take all money and buy beer and M&Ms... I will grab my hammers, sawzall, and air chisel. BE RIGHT THERE! Sharon works Sunday... so I have nothing to do but help you f@*k up the 'bolt. I will even bring the duct tape! I have been thinking about this... and can't see any reason for what was done for a seized engine. My wild thought was only that the lines were off the oil cooler... and I am sure they went on the way they came off... it would make no sense to me to have oneway flow through the oil cooler... so even if the lines were reversed it should not have prevented or restricted the oil flow. BUT... there might be a reason unknown to me to want one way flow through the cooler... but I am pretty sure you put them on the way they came off. I would not think that much oil would have been lost when it was apart to make a difference... there was not much oil that leaked out of the lines. If a piston did not seize... I'd think your jugs were OK. BUT... if it were a main bearing... I would think that was a VERY BAD THING! Sounds like it is still petrified... and ain't turning? If you want to put up with me... call me...and I really have no plans for saturday or sunday. I'll bring some M&Ms SO... one more question... having rode out a seized engine at 60 mph+ in my younger years... I thought I tossed a chain and locked the rear wheel... so did not think to pull in the clutch... assuming I coulda while trying to keep it up on two wheels until it stopped. So... I am betting you were VERY busy keeping the bike up... and hoping no one hit you. I looked back to see a guy in a station wagon with the look of terror on his face trying not to hit me... I imagine my face looked just as bad trying to keep the bike up! Is any of this "flashing back" as what happened to you? let me know bud... I am bummed out for you! |

Because I have seen a direct connection with Sam having a little trouble ...to constant trouble with the XB after making a visit to your garage?? 1.) Only thing you can bring is 1 visitor (a person who can dial 911) and one 6 pack of Beer. 2.)The 6 pack is for after the work is done.

Sam, Have you talked to Jason (wingman) about this trip? Hmmmm, thought just came to me. If Sam met this hot chick (barbie) that he is going to marry, where was Jason at this moment in time, and what did he have to take for the team. Theres always one hot one and then THE other chick! Keith |

Wingman was last seen being dragged away kicking and screaming by an ogre... in the direction of a cheap hotel... he has not been heard from since! |

The CO trip sounds good, I plan on doing that. I am trying to piece together a trip to the VA area sometime this spring. Keith, You know, the K.C. trip isn't all that bad, we could make a few of those. We just have to take turns watching over the bikes to make sure Sam and Dennis don't go near them with any tools. Ben

Das, "This was done as calmly as someone cutting open a package of hotdogs, and did not take much longer." I have been thinking about that since I read your post. I would think that unless the cutter got lucky and hit between the neck vertebrae the first try, that it would take some time to separate the head from the body with a knife. Just exactly how long did it take. Had to be blood everywhere. I think an axe would be the cats meow. Keep your distance and no blood on the boots etc. Sounds like Latin America. In the hills of Ky. where I grew up, the worst way to go was being fed to the hogs. 10-12 nursing sows and one body results in about 10-15 minutes before all evidence is gone. Sometimes the skull would have to be disposed of if the hogs were not too hungry.

And digger said I had a skewed sense of humor. No way. Das, how about a little word association game? This will show these normal fellows here, that we are just as normal, or not, as they are. For example I would post a subject and you would post the first word that came to mind. If I post the subject "Harley Davidson", you might reply, "Poser. If you post the subject "XB", I might reply, "toy". What do you think? You post the first subject................ |

V2win... I probably said too much about the video... but it is not new information. It as amazing how little time it took, it was obvious when watching that it was not the first time this had been done by him. He stood behind with his booted right foot on the left side of the victims face... pressing the head to the ground, victim facing away. Knife pressed through throat and cut out away from him... yes... LOTS of blood. Second cut back to totally sever. Big very sharp knife, lots of force, looked like he knew exactly where to cut. The video was much shorter than a TV commercial. If you have ever seen a skilled and experienced butcher work... there ya go. Was a close shot... full head, boot to ankle... not much more shown. Let's change the subject! |

V2win... OK. Lunatic... And if you are trying to trick me into a psychological evaluation... don't do the ink blot thing. I got into a big argument about one of those... He said I was obsessed with sex... I countered... "Don't lay that on me!!! There your dirty pictures that you keep showing me!" |

V2win... Maybe I did not take the appropriate amount of time in my first response to your posting. (editorial comment: I am not as dumb or superficial as I often appear) I will include the responses I would have made... but failed to include on my first response to your posting. Harley Davidson - "big" XB - "escape" I have said this a gazillion times. "I may be a lot of things... but I will NEVER be the poster child for normal!" I have slipped a time or two on the job when discussing the competency of a "client" for whatever reason and said. "...that may be true, but he is as sane as me... wait, that might be a bad example!" I will close this posting by saying... Remember this, it is not paranoia if everyone really IS out to get you! |
