We had 40-50 mph winds in LA and large sections of the city's electricity were knocked out. That means I had no phone, no internet, no fridge, no nothin' It all means Beatking was spam free for a day or so

I'm working. Someone has to pay the bills around here.

I understand the bike thing, though. I don't ride (My fear of crashing is greater than my need to ride), but the bikers at work are starting to get ansty. They're ready to get out.

Top Ten Reasons Why Harley Riders Don't Wave Back:

10. Afraid it will invalidate warranty.

9. Leather and studs make it too heavy to raise arm.

8. Refuse to wave to anyone whose bike is already paid for.

7. Afraid to let go of handlebars because they might vibrate off.

6. Rushing wind would blow scabs off the new tattoos.

5. Angry because just took out second mortgage to pay luxury tax on new Harley.

4. Just discovered the fine print in owner's manual and realized

H-D is partially owned by Honda.

3. Can't tell if other riders are waving or just reaching to

cover their ears like everyone else.

2. Remembers the last time a Harley rider waved back, he impaled his hand on spiked helmet.

1. They're too tired from spending hours polishing all that chrome to lift their arms.

Top Ten Reasons Why Gold Wing Riders Don't Wave Back:

10. Wasn't sure whether other rider was waving or making an obscene gesture.

9. Afraid might get frostbite if hand is removed from heated grip.

8. Has arthritis and the past 400 miles have made it difficult to raise arm.

7. Reflection from etched windshield momentarily blinded him.

6. The espresso machine just finished.

5. Was actually asleep when other rider waved.

4. Was in a three-way conference call with stockbroker and accessories dealer.

3. Was distracted by odd shaped blip on radar screen.

2. Was simultaneously adjusting the air suspension, seat height, programmable CD player, seat temperature and satellite navigation system.

1. Couldn't find the "auto wave back" button on dashboard

definitely two different beasts ... :D

I always wave back but here in Greece, 1 out of 3 people drive a bike so it gets tiring after a while. It's different there
