When you keep thinking about the "hereafter"
You go to another room and wonder..."what am I here after?"

I think I remember that one,  Frank. Didn't it have something to do with a Rabbi, a parrot, and a one eyed midget? Yea that one was really funny, IIRC! :-\

You know your getting old when you go to Taco Bell and look at your receipt and discover the lady at the counter gave you a Senior discount without telling her. :P

That's what I love about this place. I've been around since the Greenspun days, I was 26 back in '97...
You've all taught so many of us so much, shared a few laughs and some hard times too.
We've lived vicariously through the projects of others when circumstances didn't permit much else, lent a hand when possible and even shared bike parts when there was a desperate need.

I joined up because I wanted to learn a few things about a bike that an older, more experienced 'biker' associate thought I should start out with, and I found so much more.

I've found community here, there isn't much of that around these days and I'm proud to be here among folks from all over who know the difference.
It's been said that growing up is optional, I guess I must have been at work that day... damn.

Cheers everyone.

Got mine for the first time today! Girl said "You don't look that old."  :-* :-* I replied, "I love you!" "Have a nice day." she said.
