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'm not against abortion, the death penalty or anything like that.
So when I say, I hope you end up limbless after hitting a brick wall, I'm not being a hypocrit.
Yes, I'm jealous because you can be a stupid ****er on a bike. That's it. I hope the accident you do have doesn't kill someone who has nothing to do with your macho-wannabe behavior.

I used to race MX, ride street, and just about anything I could get my hands on. Still ride some, but not near as aggressive as I used to. Proper equipment has saved my life more then a few times. If Nothing else take heed to that last statement!
One thing you WILL end up realizing is that no matter how good of a rider or how much talent you have, when riding not everything is under your control. When riding at speeds that you are talking about, you know as well as I do that something ca happen that is out of ones control.
As far as people being envious and jealous is probably on of the most immature things you could say. Some day you will figure this out. At 25 you seem to not be getting it, I am now 31 and hell even my ass was figuring out by then.
BTW how the **** did you get stopped, most cops won't even attempt to try and catch a bike at that speed, much less ever catch it. I doubt you respect law enforcement by the "pig" comments.
Just try to do it when your not putting others in harms way. Myself now having a daughter, sure makes me think long and hard how lucky I am to not have lost and harmed more then what I have.
Very good example, it's funny today how people hear the voice of reason and choose not to listen to it. He has people telling him about how they used to do it, and have seen what it has caused and have chosen not to continue to do it, yet he still has in his mind that he is made out of teflon. I know plenty of people that go way to fast in cars and on crotch rockets, it seems that everytime one of my buddies thought he was invincible he ended up laying his bike down. Like it has been said many, many times, there are two types of riders. Riders who have laid their bike down, and their are riders who will lay their bike down. At that fast of speed it's like playing Russian Roulette, there are too many factors that riders cant control at that fast of speed. [Reply]

And whats this crap about me stealing a laptop. I dont steal.
Not a gramps yet. I'm 41. Seems like I was 25 yesterday. I'm still "livin it up" too. I just live it up legally and safely where I am not indangering others. I go on canoeing trips, hunting trips, golfing trips, bbq, etc. I have no prob with your riding a motorcycle. I choose not to ride one because there are too many drivers on the road that dont pay attention to them and too many obsicles like deer that are likely to be fatal. I only have a problem with the way you ride in such excess of the speed limit in populated areas and then bag on the police for doing the job you and I pay them to do. You would certainly expect them to help you if someone stole that bike of yours, no? [Reply]
I am not trying to brag but for those that thought I was full of crap when I said chicks dig guys with bikes. Here is a pic from the party I was at last weekend.
How do we know they love bikes? I see the two chicks, but if there is anything girls love if to be nice to hadicapped people. You need to have someway of verifying they are there for the bikes and not the free boons farm wine and also prove that they are not just standing with you for a picture to "make the retard feel normal" [Reply]
