Why I Ride?
"We do things that nurture the soul so we
can endure the things that fall under the
heading of responsibility."
David Davis, Rider and HOG member
Funnies!WISDOM OF
LARRY THE CABLE GUY
1. A day without
sunshine is like night.
2. On the other hand,
you have different fingers.
3. 42.7 percent of all
statistics are made up on the spot.
4. 99 percent of
lawyers give the rest a bad name.
5. Remember, half the
people you know are below average.
6. He who laughs last,
thinks slowest.
7. Depression is merely
anger without enthusiasm.
8. The early bird may
get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese in the trap.
9. Support bacteria.
They're the only culture some people have.
10. A clear conscience
is usually the sign of a bad memory.
11. Change is
inevitable, except from vending machines.
12. If you think nobody
cares, try missing a couple of payments.
13. How many of you
believe in psycho-kinesis? Raise my hand.
14. OK, so what's the
speed of dark?
15. When everything is
coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
16. Hard work pays off
in the future. Laziness pays off now.
17. How much deeper
would the ocean be without sponges?
18. Eagles may soar,
but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
19. What happens if you
get scared half to death, twice?
20. Why do psychics
have to ask you for your name?
21. Inside every older
person is a younger person wondering, "What the heck happened?"
22. Just remember -- if
the world didn't suck, we would all fall off.
23. Light travels
faster than sound. That's why some people appear bright until you
hear them speak.
24. Life isn't like a box of chocolates. It's more like a
jar of jalapenos. What you do today, might burn your butt tomorrow.
Thanks Sarah
SENIOR DRIVING
As a senior citizen was driving down the freeway, his car
phone rang.
Answering, he heard his wife's voice urgently warning him,
'Herman, I
just heard on the news that there's a car going the wrong way
on
Interstate 77. Please be careful!'
'Heck,' said Herman, 'It's not just one car. It's hundreds of
them!'
Thanks Rex
