Random Thoughts

Just got off work.   Kicking back in my garage like I always do, decompressing from a day.   I get off work a couple hours earlier than the wife, and I got my little setup in here where I can sit by my bike, see whats going in the world on my laptop that seems to stay out here.   Turned out,  Its an impromptu man cave, but it does the trick.

The tour is looming.    I’m not sure how many more days, but enough that I need to get a few things ready.  Get some bike music together, download the latest maps for my GPS,  do some research.   The truth is, that shit takes an hour. It’s just fun to anticipate and think about the thing you like doing the most in the world.   I can’t wait.   I’m gonna milk this whole preparation thing like a cow.

If you have to ask your wife if you can have a Harley, you shouldn’t have one.

I’m proud to say my wife and I work out most life decisions together.   Except for Bikes.

For the people this means something to.     I’m a fan.      Ride hard, ya pricks.

I haven’t posted for a while.     Everything is going pretty well.   Work, BACA, Family,  everything else.

When things go good, it feels like things need to be stirred up.    Complacency has never really served me very well.     It means you’re ignoring something you need to do.   Somewhere.

Some good things are happening though.    I’m on deck to lead a tour for Eaglerider for the Easy Rider Tour next month.     We’ll see how it goes.     I’m stoked they asked me, and I love that part of the country.    We’ll see!

Turns out, Cecil the Lion was no choirboy. Photos have surfaced of Cecil in the act of killing and eating Gary the Gazelle. Gary was a favorite of both locals and visitors at Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park, where he delighted onlookers with his trademark leap, while clicking his heels. Gary was 12 years old and leaves his beloved wife, Greta Gazelle, and their 8 (unnamed) offspring. Gary’s long-time friend and confidante, Zeke the Zebra said, “A lot of people are crying over Cecil lately, but, let me tell you, I’ve lost a lot of friends and family to him. He was an animal. I won’t be crying no tears.”

Kicking back today, and I was watching the history of the Eagles.   This same came on, and I had to find out what it was.   Kinda jammin, in a 50’s sort of way.   Ya gotta appreciate the masters.

“46 years ago today, we walked on the Moon for the first time. We just saw Pluto up close. Humankind does great things, when ideas get off the ground.” – Bill Nye, the Science Guy.

With all the shit out there in the world, and things you can invent to bitch about — I just like this quote.   It can fire ya up, if you let it.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you’re a mile away and you have their shoes

In all fairness, I have no idea what Kanye West has ever made.   I think I saw him in a Superbowl commercial or something like that… once.    I don’t remember. I’m old enough to know that high attitudes come and go.     See ya in 50 years Kanye.

Jimi Hendrix, almost 50 years ago.   To me — It’s beautiful, and I like it more, considering how he viewed the whole thing:    Watch his fingers and how he owns that guitar.    He’s telling a Story.   YOu should listen.   Brilliant.
