Now that I've got your attention Ladies. If there were such a contest. And it was judged on your reasons given for why you should win this ride and dinner, over anyone else, what would they be?

Is it a Sportster? Can I dump Colby (who is that?) and take my husband? It would bring back fine memories to be on a Harley again. (Or a Norton)

Colby said he always wanted a Harley. But can he RIDE one? Not like riding a bull, ya know. Hogs are tougher to break
I think Colby can handle it HEP, he's rode broncos. Damn suicide clutches, years ago, almost killed me. On my very first ride. My friend didn't tell me which way to lean. Those babies are HEAVY.
I'm training a horse fly to drive my ride mower for me.

Tell me, did he work on Harleys in the house? Real Harley men work on them in the front room. I had a friend that had two in his front room, used to work on them while watching TV, eating hamburgers, and downing a few beers. Ahhh, home sweet home.

The proper place to work on Hogs is in the kitchen. No newspaper on the linoleum, either. If too many beer bottles get in the way, it can always be pushed into the living room carpet, which is great for sopping up oil leakage. And its closer to the bong

Ahhhh yes, carpet soakage was very important. Looks really great on, the then fashionable, avacado green carpet. Better yet, the popular light beige gave more defintion to the oil stains.
"Neat as a pin". I always wondered why the Harleys were always so spotlessly clean, and the leather riding outfits could stand alone by themselves in the corner?

Cruds, we called them. But a valuable tool for threats, too. "Honey, if you dont get the bike outta the living room before our company shows up, I might accidently wash your cruds". The bike was moved, lemme tell ya, mui pronto. And my carpet was not avacado green. It was "burnt orange" and it was the bestest, longest shag carpet around. Even my cat, MoonGlow, loved to "nest" in it and bong water never showed stains

LMAO!
I had a shag carpet like that ~ earth tones. Impossible to stain that stuff. The perfect camouflage. One day the cat threw up and I couldn't find it!
(no, it wasn't next to the bong!)
I found georgeous wood floors underneath and decided to refinish them. Of couse, the carpet cracked into pieces when I tried to roll it up!!!
ahhh....memories.......
only ZOOMIN here

Earth tones, yes! They used to make carpet then to hide everything, even the cats. Hell, you could rebuild a car motor in your house, and have company over that night, and they were none the wiser. Now days it's supposedly much better fibers, etc. Maybe it just needs some Harley oil, cat puke, beer stains and bong water. That'll fix it up. That's the missing ingredients!
The cat new what was good for him/her to keep the plumbing working.
Nite all, Mint

Sweet Dreams, Mint!
(BTW, I had no clue who colby was either ~ I was thinking cheese).
Avocado green was the fridge.
The stove was burnt orange.
Brown enamel sink.
Yellow tiled walls.
Metallic green vinyl booth as a breakfast nook.
Pretty eclectic little three flat in Chicago.
Puke after ingesting bong water? nah.. the cat usually hid behind the toilet after snorting that stuff.....liked to rub on the cold porcelin toilet and linoleum at times like that.....
Back on topic?
I should win the Harley, not just the ride. I'm too tired to figure out why.
I'll sleep on it.
Nightie nite.
