From the Jornada to Livejournal: selected randomness.

Sunday: Boof is a windup toy- and I found his winder. After a half-hour or so of non-stop pounding (yes, I was just about dead from exhaustion but I wasn't slowing up) a huge spasm ripples through his body and he leaps forward as if launched from a cannon. "what did you do that for, do you want a break?" "no", he said, "I don't know why that happened, it wasn't ME that did it.." *giggle giggle* Monday: Denial wil get you nowhere Boof, as you did it again this morning- though only a little bit this time.

-----------
The silver BMW sped past us in the inside lane, the young driver using the car's handling and power to full advantage as she sliced and diced her way through the heavy traffic. Being on the bike we of course caught up with her at every traffic light. A BMW may be fast, I thought, but even a powerful late-model 328ci coupe was no match for an 1100cc motorbike. Until she noticed us- Boof took off from one set of lights a little faster than her, and instantly her attention was on us. The next lights led onto the motorway, and as we sat facing the red glow she was determinedly not looking at us. The lights went green, Boof dropped the clutch and was off the mark like lightning. Except the BMW was quicker. Not even marginally quicker- we were comprehensively thrashed. I'm impressed. I want one. Though the Piazza will be faster once its finished. Once its finished .Which may take a while.

I deny nothing I was in pure pig heaven. That was the best thing ever! Still not sure why that happened, lets try again and find out why. Might need some extra people to take notes for the experiment. WOOF WOOF WOOF!!!!! However I have no memory of doing it again. Did I really????

Now lets set some things straight about that BMW.
1. I am on a cruiser
2. I had extra weight on the cruiser (that being you)
3. I was in the middle of a sharp bend so not going that fast for a take off
4. I wasnt expecting her to do that and if I was I wouldnt have let her win
5. she was on the outside lane and had better control of the turn (not as sharp)
6. I also had a car in my lane in front with no room to get around
7. shuda up! LOL
8. lets get your piazza up againts my bike shall we.
9. wish I had my other bike there at the time.. still without you on it as then it would be slow
10. I cant think of any more excuses... I want a BMW too (minus the chick who was blond... albeit fake)

My present bike (an 800cc Suzuki VX800) is quicker than most of the cars on the road. My present bike lust object (a 1000cc Yamaha FZ1) is quicker than just about everything on the road. However, my professors always said to do comparative testing, so I think I need to put a Growler on the back of either and go hunting BMWs, hm?

Maybe some in depth investigating is needed to track down Boof's button...

Ha! Smokin' snotty BMW drivers is loads of fun! Even my big, heavy ol' Springer can stonk 'em off the line--and it pisses them off SO MUCH! Sure, I get tired of playing before they give it up, competitive shits that so many of them are, so when they finally whip their detachable penis in front of me with a smug toss of their overly-coiffed hairdo, I chuckle to myself.
And I raise a pinky.
