So I was in Paradise Cafe today for lunch and it was jam packed. There was this guy that was sitting in a booth all by his lonesome and had a sweet lookin laptop. The dude gets a call on his cell phone and decides to take the call outside. I was perplexed because he just left his laptop all by itself. So, its now been 15 minutes and the guy is STILL outside on the phone!
I thought to myself that I really needed a new laptop and this one was there for the taking. Well, there were no cameras in there and it was so busy that no one would notice so I went up to it casually and folded it up and exited the opposite door from him. Like taking candy from a baby. :-)
And I dont feel too bad because the guy didnt have any business or work related stuff on there, just a couple of photo albums. Hey, if he is too stupid to leave his laptop alone for more than 15 minutes then he deserved it. [Reply]

I assume you've taken a motorcycle safety course?

I read somewhere that when you're doing 65, you're traveling at something like 80' per second....
don't forget about mechanical faliures, tire blow outs, road debris and other things that are beyond a riders' control. [Reply]

That was the one knock on the vacation we took out there last year (Yosemite/Tahoe area) - the drivers were just awful. Proactively rude. Deliberately difficult. Good luck trying to merge, ever. Perhaps one driver in 20 would let you in. It's like they would anticipate my changing lanes and deliberately speed up/slow down. I've driven in Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Chicago, and all points in between, and I've never seen anything like it.
Next time I go out there, I'm renting an Abrams.
Yea it's pretty bad. The Chinese will ****ing kill you here. Far and away the most deadly drivers on the road. The San Mateo highlands had a chinese driver go to hit his brakes and he accidentally hit his gas ran over a boat load of kids awhile back. These guys seem like they are never charged either.
Cell phones are another huge problem here, I never thought I would say this but I am so glad we are implimenting hands free legislation at the first of next month. [Reply]

It has nothing to do with it. It has to do with the fact that some guys on this board like me have wives and children they love. When some yahoo says that a "pig" busted them for going 100 mph on city streets it makes them realize how endangered the family is. No, most families aren't out at 2am, but some moms and dads that work the night shift could be out on the road and easily get into a wreck with someone doing 100mph. that is why there are speed limits. The "pig" you mentioned might be the first one there when you do have a wreck, your inability to recognize that shows immaturity. If it weren't for a "pig", I might have died in a hit and run with a drunk. If you are that good and that adrenaline pumped, then join the racing circuit or the circus. But, by all means, let the rest of us have safe roads to drive on.
wow what a pussy. seriously this guy should be voted chiefsplanet blowhard of the year

And to the who "Two kinds of motorcyclists" crap whatever.
My uncle has been riding for nearly 30 years and he has NEVER been in an accident. So there goes that theory.
Understood; good for your uncle.
I'm just saying that's a lot to leave to chance. If I'm going to check out, I don't want it to be in a parking lot going 15mph and smacking my skull against the curb.
