on a lighter note...

most of us are already familiar with my little problem with a certain douche from long island. while i am dealing with that as proactively and rationally as i can...gotta keep my zen...i thought i'd put up a pic that my mom sent me. that's right, my mom. she's been riding longer than i have (about 14 years) and still keeps a little 250 for riding to work whenever it's not winter. i won't give out her age, but it makes me proud to say she's still at it with gusto and a real zen bastard as far as i'm concerned.

this is a 1943 indian she saw this summer and sent me a pic of the other day:


a very pretty ol' gal

...and the bike's cool lookin, too!
