Shoot. I ran out a couple of hours ago and I miss it already. (hiccup!)

Where'd that woman hide my danged Harley key. It's time for a beer run!  :beer:

Ah, just a little levity there. But I was that wild back in my younger days, though.
:beer:

When I found out all those Olympic Beer Drinking Team shirts were..a joke..I was so disillusioned I broke training and quit. I always had the key with me for my Superglide. Since then, it's knowing which switch to throw and kicking it over. (No magic button on my chopper).

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I always lock my switch and front forks to make it at least difficult for thieves and impossible for an inebriated me to take a ride.

Thumbs down to you. Pish posh.

Thanks for the compassion Frank ... that's about all I can drink ... once in awhile a glass of milk.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I got 'Baby" after I quit drinking. A guy asked me how she got her name. 80 inch shovel, kick start only, running a Morris MK V mag, and battery eliminator. I just said one day I was trying to get her to go ("Spring windup") and it dawned on me. I was saying, "C'mon, baby start!"  I never got too drunk to ride the Superglide, even if I did so sideways a couple of times and laid it over once going backward...

 We have come full circle.  Lust. Love. Break-up.... Ships sinking...


We had broken up for good just an hour before,
And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor.

Yeah...just one of those alcohol fueled dumbass moments. I'd been shooting the breeze with a bro from Canada I hadn't seen in ages, and we just sat there straddling our bikes headed in opposite directions with the engines shut down cause hogs don't like to run sitting still. I kicked mine into gear as the last few beer kicked in so the bike wouldn't roll, and when we were done catching up, I hit the starter and lurched the bike forward. Laughing, I found neutral on the first try, but I ended up rolling back, going downhill backwards into a ravine through a bunch of 4-6 inch and larger trees. Once the rear tire hit the steep stuff only a few feet behind me, there was no stopping. I was tipping right, so I couldn't use the back brake and the front wheel just slid in the leaves.
God looks out for fools, drunks, pregnant women and Scottsmen, and I hit my three out of four that day (leaning heavily on the Scotts fraction, too).
I missed all of the trees and ended up at the bottom of a steep hill with the bike tipped over laying on my leg and laughing my ass off. I didn't get so much as a scratch. Three bros popped their heads over the edge, expecting the worst, came down shaking their heads, and helped get the bike off me, one (Road Captain) 'grounded' me for a few hours and we got the bike to camp, none the worse for wear. When I sobered up and realized how easily that could have ruined my weekend, I just got ripped celebrating my good fortune, but the bike stayed on the kickstand until the next day.

I just knew it was one of those stories. And we can laugh about it now.
And I am. ;)

Thanks, bro!

That shit is smooth. I usually have that in the bar for whiskey drinkers.

My drink of choice for over 35 years.  Sadly they discontinued their 101 variety about 15 years ago.  Sure miss it.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

@Frank Cannon; @Wingnut; @Smokin Joe

I am in no way saying he's on par with the great Gordon Lightfoot, but when I hear The White Buffalo, I can't help but notice similarities in their voices.
