Bought fuel line at Autozone today, brought it home and made my lines, installed freshly rebuilt carbs and test rode.  Went for dinner with family.  Came home to wire up my radio shack starter button (don't ask) removed tank and throttle cables to get the right switches dangling.  All done, put everything back together, whoa!  fuel line is swollen to twice the size it was!  moron gave me vacuum line!  took what was left to Autozone and was given Goodyear fuel line at no extra charge.  But what a mess!  Never assume that the high school kid behind the parts counter knows what he is doing!  (and check your stuff before you leave) :-[

...the government is going to stop farmers using the rain for irrigation, so that sucks.

My god, your government IS powerfull.  They can keep rain off farmers fields ! ?



Ha ha, ya silly old bugger TT, if it was raining anywhere, there wouldn't be a drought! Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Gtting it off my chest....
I hate the 3 people whom said they wanted to buy my truck
and then never show up with the cash.

Tried getting hair off chest, hurts,
so I stopped
and I'm happier and hairier.
Sorta like a sheep, I guess.
peace,
michel.

Boy am I glad I got that off my chest. Thanks for starting this thread. ::)

I waited around all day for my mate Ben Fahey (another SOHC4 member) to come over and collect some parts for his race bike, (the fact that there was a JD opportunity had nothing at all to do with my pacing up and down the driveway all day) anyway, he never showed, or even called or emailed me? Geez I hope he's alright?  ;D

Well, I loaned a guy my truck last Oct. to haul a load of firewood, have not seen it since, I finally told him I would sell it to him but still no money and no truck.

I guess I will have to become REPOMAN

I chanced a ride yesterday, leaky fork seal and all. I needed some stuff from Walmart, so why use a 5,000 car to pick up 10lb of stuff @ $3.25 a gallon. There are these old babes walking around in belly shirts. Now I am not adverse to seeing a bit of skin. However, when their bellies are bigger than mine and they have a roll of fat hanging over their belt it is not a pretty site. I beleive in freedom of expression, but you should have some pride.

On a positive note Kentucky does make a fine Whiskey, no doubt about it. If they give out a small sample I guess you could visit 4 of them in a day. So, IC, could you put Terry and I up for a couple of weeks, we would like to do these visits properly.

I starting to really hate Seagulls. They seem to find it amusing to sit on my roof, most often on sundaymorning and make useless looud noises. And I don''t even live near the sea. I felt like killing them this morning, but instead i'll post my trauma here.

Well that's not very neighborly IC, lucky that you, Bobby and me are such good mates, when you tell us to "get a room", we don't take offence, ha ha! ;D

Seagulls require a good pellet gun! He have issues with blackbirds around here and a pellet guns work pretty good. Even a bb gun will do it if you are a good shot!  Took a noisy one out a few years ago with a small hand held crossbow ;)

yeah but that won't work because :
1. I'm a softie.
2. My girl will cut off my balls if I kill an animal.
3. They are a protected species ( i don't get this as there are enough of them breeding on my rooftop to populate the entire planet)

I think I need to borrow a HUGE cat, or some kind of big-ass bird of prey. Can somebody lend me a predator?(I will return it well fed) ;)

that's a mighty nice offer from you ProTeal,
But if I had a decent amount of Crown Royal and hot woman in fishnets in my house, I probably wouldn't have noticed the seagulls in the first place.

I know some city buildings put out dummy birds of prey (ex: plastic owls) to keep pigeons off of buildings.  Also rubber snakes may do the trick too.  Maybe you can find/try something similar.

In Massachusetts, possession of  an unregistered pellet gun is covered by the one-year mandatory jail sentence, as is possession of a Red Ryder BB Gun.  Now, that's a beef.  Imagine getting put in jail with hard criminals and trying to explain why you got locked up. ;-)
