You don't need to send me a mouse. Just Ibuprophen for my finger.

About the time Ralph passed Ron and the big pressure began, I put a post on my facebook page asking for anyone who wanted to to vote for Ron. Nobody responded but today I announed the win and thanked any of those who voted for him.
One of the gals on my friends list (who I went to school with) chimed in and said she had voted, and, "Does she get a ride at least?" So Ron, if you're ever in Western Canada there's a lovely lady here who would like to hop on your bike with ya. :P If you can't make it, I might find a bike and take her myself. ..just nobody tell my wife. |

Spud I do believe RED was your choice in the voters pole . I'm sure that it's going to show up ,going down the road . Eveyone that knows me over the years had posted yellow ,But thats just because the last 2 GT mustangs i've owned have been yellow . I'm told by a facebook user that they do look better in person than in the pictures .

i read the review for the 250r last night, i want one. love the looks of it, and a 250 to 250r is the kind of bike i want to start off with.. ive only got a few grand more to pay off on my car then i am looking for a used bike or even one of these since they are right at 4 grand and i live in tx already i could just take a drive to pick one up.. need to get a truck too |

Wow this is One supportive group here . I just posted that to say that the habit of daily voting should be kicked in about 3 weeks . I should say that i'm not as cold turkey as you mite imagin , I am using e cigs and 2 1/2 weeks with an analog cig . My doc said he didn't know anything about them , But they claim to not be as harmful as analogs . however they are kinda new and may kill me . usa has not looked at them and won't unless they can get them classified as a drug . so at this point still getting so addictive nic in the system . thanks again for all the support

I wish you luck on your attempt to quit smoking. You'll never regret the decision. Next March 19th will be 25 years for me. I went cold turkey after a pack and a half a day for 12 years. Cold turkey took quite a bit of will power but the third time was the charm.
This may sound a bit hokey but when friends and family asked how I managed to quit, I would tell them that "I quit quitting and quit smoking". Seems to have worked. ^^(Jeez, that reads like something from an AA meeting)^^
