Online Dating? Thin and Rich Works Here, Too
“Consider the case of the 90-year-old bachelor who was asked why he was still single. He replied that he was looking for the perfect woman.”
“Never found her, eh,” the interviewer asked.
“Oh, I found her all right,” said the bachelor, “but she was looking for the perfect man.”

“…the Rocket III isn’t just a special motorcycle. It’s a truly extraordinary one.” I finally got to ride one last Saturday.
Oh. My. God.
Notice how I capitalized ‘God.’ Riding that bike was a religious experience. I will have one some day, unless the new mid-size cruiser, rumored to be powered by a two-cylinder version of the Rocket III engine, is nearly impressive and much cheaper.
Before the ride, my first impressions sitting astride the bike were than it’s not as ugly in person as it is in the magazines, and the tank is a lot wider than I thought it would be. My Rocket III would have this factory paint kit with matching Corbin beetle bags and a Corbin seat, possibly their Rumble Seat. So just those few items add about $4500 to the cost of the bike. It will be interesting to see if the second new bike due to be announced at the September Dealer’s Conference is the touring version of the Rocket III.

Mickey D’s and Me - I enjoyed Spurlock’s “Super Size Me” docutainment, but the biggest problem I had with it (besides what this interviewee points out about what Spurlock said about personal responsibility vs. corporate responsibility) is that he goes from a very healthy, near-vegan diet, to nothing but McDonald’s. I believe the body can adjust to just about anything, but when you give it such a shock to the system, there are bound to be consequences.

This is some insane shit. I found this site via one of the many CSS-Design showcase sites (this time it was CSSBeauty.com). While it is a nicely-designed site, the content is bonkers. Welcome to the 1950’s.
