You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

 I thought normal badass spit whiskey onto the wound and use masking tape or bandanna to wrap it?  Super glue works well, too.

 I might use the leatheraid for my leather jacket... Not really.

Absurd spoilers.

I'd say this qualifies as Bad-Ass

You know that is not that bad. I bought a android based phone to combine devices. I had a MP3 player, a phone, and a GPS when I took long road trips on the bike. Now I have the one smart phone but it is not that easy to use as a GPS since waterproof bar mounts are not readily available for them. I could see having this thing on my wrist so I can glance down and see my route and you could run the earphones up the sleeve if your phone will do turn by turn navigation.
