Post by: NC Steve on March 21, 2008, 02:49:45 PM
I stole this from another board, because it's too funny not to share.
Sorry...   ;)

tennis coach.

Honda ST1300:----- ---- I really do understand the stock market.

1967 Triumph T120 Bonneville ----------If I'd had this bike instead
of a Cushman Eagle when I lived at the fraternity house in 1965, I
might now be married to a former cheerleader named Veronica.

Harley-Davidson XR1000 ---------All my left shoes are made of steel,
and all my motorcycle boots have laces.

Yamaha TZ250 ---------My other bike is a van.

Brough Superior SS100 ----------My mother was an Episcopalian.

Moto Guzzi Eldorado ----------If I'd wanted a Harley, I'd have bought
a Harley. But I didn't, and I didn't.

Honda GL1500 Gold Wing Aspencade ----------The wife and I both feel
that donuts are an unfairly maligned and under-appreciated source of
protein and minerals.

tuned to Public Radio, but when I play it too loud I can't hear the
cell phone.

in our basement rec room, next to the real ale tapper on the wet bar.

Yamaha V-Max --------I am the only mechanical engineer in our office
with a Mohawk hair cut.

Norton 850 Commando ---------The last proper Brtish twin, and I'm
sticking to it....at least until Kenny Dreer gets his s#@t together.

India Enfield Bullet --------My 1965 short-wheelbase Land Rover is
waiting for parts.

Triumph Speed Triple ------I'm not waiting for any parts. Ever again.

Honda Elite 80 ---------My mom is knitting me a warmer scarf for
going to class.

Vincent Series C Black Shadow------ -- If you need to borrow any books
or videos on the Battle of Britain, the life of Winston Churchill or
Gordon's defense of Khartoum, I have an extensive library.

in the Milwaukee phone book.

bike just for me.

steam engine and vintage farm implement meet.

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R --------Yea Dude, it's pretty fast, but, like, it wheelies for miles!

1952 BMW R51/3 ----------I show the Luger collection only to a few close friends

the coming thing, apparently.

CZ 400 Falta -------- Since the bypass surgery, my dirt riding and energy
level have improved tremendously.

Honda RC45 ------- I have an extensive library of magazine articles about the RC45

Oh, Yeah! Add it to the list and send it on.

I'm kinda intimidated by the local renaissance man slash high school teacher's R100. But I plan to steal it all the same as he refuses to sell his 30+ year passion. Kind of a ghetto intervention, if you please. [smiley=beatnik.gif]
