Hi everybody, man I feel like a real dork, is this where you post for new members??! I'm the admin on SD and I come bearing an olive branch. After the recent shakeups in the scooter world I thought this would be a good time to try to build some bridges. I've PM'd Doug back and forth a few times and I think we both have had personal travails in the past few years and some of that has bled over into our interactions on the forums; at least for me it did. I can be a little caustic at times and my sense of humor is often misinterpreted. If I have offended anybody over here I'm sorry and would like to start anew. Doug has been very gracious in our recent missives and genuinely wants a benevolent scooter community in which the ridiculous hostilities and competition stop. Scooter Rebels has an intelligent, innovative admin that is second to none....now if we find out who he is......HAR! I see some guys I know from Doc....hey Earthie...Old Chopper Guy....and more...... What the hell are you guys doing over here??!! Anyway, I hope bygones can be bygones and if someone has a criticism of me they'd like to express, go ahead, I can handle it.

Yes, I get it. I saw those comments on Doc and wish those things would stop. On another note, Ms. Baez brings back a lot of memories. She was big when I was a kid. Good grief I saw a pic of Billy Joel yesterday and I didn't recognize him. He looked ancient! The years have flow by....just flown by.

QUACK
Well, there goes the friggin neighborhood
But i guess I should have expected this, if they'll let me in it must pretty much be anything goes.
But look buddy, before we sink too deep here , i just want to heads you up,
we don't want you selling your used surgical supplies here,clamps and do dads that do god knows what, were still trying to figure out screw drivers and the standard VS metric thing,
also this is a full family site, so leave those nurses in Nazi boots and such at your place.
But I do want to thank you for that bag of stuff last week, I must have walked in the kitchen 5 times later that night and completely forgot what i went in there for and there's not a dorito or mini pizza left in my house.

Not Letting The Human Mind Fall Into personal Disgrace
Few Things make for "better biking" then when men see other men sitting a concourse for tolerance, when men draw on their better inner being, to be a little patient with one another.
Our country is racked with events of people doing just the opposite in ways of almost biblical historic proportion, that have left our children scared and our women trembling.
We should , those of us who can still think, collect our selves and never forget through the smoke and the sirens, "We are never better then our tolerance towards others.
Even tho a thousand almost physical and certainly seductive feelings lash out in us to course our minds to think other wise,
we are the first person to be rewarded when we shown tolerance for others.
Simply "we reap what we sow"
Since i have come to these forums, men have PM'ed me about how witty and sometimes even moral my posts are, some have said they even don't like backing their post up to mine.
This is a real misdirected feeling to have, any idiot (ME) can make crazy as I do, but it takes a person who is surely the hope of the world to come to these forums and simply get along with everyone.
These folks are the real artist, these folks are the real hope we must turn to in the wake of wide spread self destruction that reaches also to hurt others, in its efforts to hurt itself.
The sixty's may be gone, but the idea that a man gets on a bike, detaches himself from his childish EGO, so he may in turn show good American constitutional love and respect for others
That repeats itself over and over on just one idea,
GOD IS IN EVERYONE, no matter what my small mind or yours tricks you to think other wise,
is a idea not gone or dead,
or girly,
it is simply the only hope we have.
Flaming people here or at the finish line is to flame ourselves, we are the first casualty of our intolerance.
And intolerance always means just one thing, --except in self defense, like a hurt kid we caved in to self destruction when if we where a little better, we would have laughed.
The children can say what they want, but for me, this worlds just a test to see if i am ready for something better OR stupid enough to get lost in preposterous land wars , childish fights over a few feet of city concrete, or some deformed woman with a nice set of legs but whose heart is a melt down,
none of which fits through the gates of heaven.
I am a biker, I have another set of morals, I am outside the mob, the root word of crowd is crow, and a flock of them is called a "Murder"
and I am old also
so
I wanna be ready to-
go and journey Where the Suns diamond crescent's glowing Run across the valley Beneath the sacred mountain And Wander through the forest Where the trees have leaves of prisms And break the light in colors
Which is a event that happens every friggin day with out drugs, when i forgive all my enemies, which is the lightest load there is, and the bravest heroic event that can go down.
This is the bike I ride, and for the record few more then Doug have let me rev that engine,
and bashan there is not a sane man in the world who is not dancing happy over you coming to this forum.
you have a chair at my posts any time and the pleasure is mine.

we aim to be just a little different and yet better.
sometimes we succeed, but the important part is intention,
men are judged i believe by what the hope to do not by what some times happens,
just think about the guy who was trying to make a hand cream mixing nitro glycerine.
boy did he get a surprise, as he entered the doors of heaven.
