    Then , the next day, you see all this stuff that you posted last night. And don't remember. And, variously , cringe in embarassment, or marvel at the succinct insight and laconic wit . Either way "Shit , did I post that ?"

    Sleep? what is sleep?

    I like hanging out with you guys on KB because Zed's God gave me all this time to spend f*cking about 24hrs a day wondering what to do with myself.

    The socialist Goddess Helen, steals most of my money in taxes so that I can't afford to use the time to ride my bike and hang about with you on the roads, like I had planned, so I do it here, on KB.

    Helen's destruction of the value of my life savings has prevented me from buying and running the bike of my choice so I ride the KB forum waves and share all your rides, (that you post on here), with you.

    I will continue to do that until she takes that away from me too. That may not be too far away either, judging by the way her government is performing!

    Other than that I go to bed and lay awake for hours listening to the nutters on talk back radio. Life's too short to waste time sleeping. John.

    Could easily see that happening on one of the many Honda Goldwings today on the Toy Run *mental note for if i ever buy a tourer, however unlikely that would be*

    Shall we send the big word to parliament, seeing as they are on a roll clearing stupid laws (140 kmph lose license etc) we might be able to get them to ban sleep, and if they do, in theory, the woofterish ones might be first to drop off while driving etc... Natural selection, could save the country millions!!!

    Meh, CDMA is $112 per month, and I don't pay it anyway (werk does). And laptops are covered under house contents when in car, or on bike (which classes as same, though insurance companies don't like to admit it)

    I shall stick by my previous view, insurance companies can mostly be defined as busstids, exclusion offered if you simply work for one, but the companies themselves, grrr!!
