I've made about 20 trips up and down that road. Seen two wrecks with one of them fatal. Fun road for sure but one must not ride outside their capabilities.

If it weren't for the vast and immeasurable amount of respect I have for Lary, I'd call you a disgusting piece of human anatomy!

Oh Jeeze, that'll go straight to his furry head...

done did the Dragon, still have the same bike- little wilder back in the Eighties with oil stone though....try it on a foggy morning. yikes.

PA has some back roads that are worse- both hubby and i were crossing through the Endless Mountains when some yuppie in his " I have no winkie but lots of money" car almost took us both out in our lane at 30 percent grade. If we could have let go of our bikes ( grade and surface), we would have pounded him. This weekend's ride was wonderful, now that I am older.
Really enjoy those curves, sound of the bike (and all the for sale signs on the winkieless cars)...

bears, coyotes, mountain lion, deer and such here but the projects keep jumping out and biting me! none of it planned. try again tomorrow for what i want to do.

Jeff, needless to say- I am glad my son did not hook up with the gas well drillers after reading what you go through...
Blake, ofc marc- saw some local county jail deputies; all of the looked like you guys. no sense of humor.

Be nice fellas or I'll post more pictures of y'all!

Unfortunately Ma, what we need out here are people like your son. Someone who can look at information and make an informed decision, not just a decision based on making footage for the next 5 minutes, cause that is the way it has always been done...

I am actually waiting for a second phone interview with a company that evaluates real time data from the rig to help the 'leaders' make better informed decisions. The hardest part of the job is training the 'leaders' to actually listen to consultants, and make decisions based on the information we provide them. We get the tried and true "you don't know what the heck your talking about, I'VE been doing this for thirty years" garbage.

Ok -

Mornin'

It's Tuesday, August 10th.

On this day in 1821 - Missouri became the 24th state to join the Union.

1846 - The Smithsonian Institution was chartered by the U.S. Congress. The "Nation's Attic" was made possible by $500,000 given by scientist Joseph Smithson.

1856 - In Louisiana, a hurricane came ashore and killed about 400 people.

1885 - The first electric streetcar, to be used commercially, was operated in Baltimore, MD, by Leo Daft.

1921 - Franklin D. Roosevelt was stricken with polio.

1927 - Mount Rushmore was formally dedicated. The individual faces of the presidents were dedicated later.

1944 - U.S. forces defeated the remaining Japanese resistance on Guam.

1945 - The day after the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, Japan announced they would surrender. The only condition was that the status of Emperor Hirohito would remain unchanged.

1949 - In the U.S., the National Military Establishment had its name changed to the Department of Defense.

1954 - Construction began on the St. Lawrence Seaway.

1977 - The "Son of Sam," David Berkowitz, was arrested in Yonkers, NY. Berkowitz, a postal employee, had shot and killed six people and wounded seven others.

1988 - U.S. President Reagan signed a measure that provided $20,000 payments to Japanese-Americans who were interned by the U.S. government during World War II.

1994 - U.S. President Clinton claimed presidential immunity when he asked a federal judge to dismiss, at least for the time being, a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Paula Corbin Jones.

1995 - Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were charged with 11 counts in the Oklahoma City bombing.

1995 - Norma McCorvey, "Jane Roe" of the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, announced that she had joined the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue.

2006 - In Great Britain, 24 people were arrested for their roles in a plot to blow up airliners traveling between Britain and the United States. In Pakistan, 7 people were arrested for their roles in the same plot.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
If pro and con are opposites, wouldn't the opposite of progress be congress?
