    Carlson/Putin interview

    Who has seen this interview? It DID NOT go off as I thought it would. If you believe what Putin says... it is only natural that Russia should save the Ukrainians... from themselves. Do you think good ol' Tucker practices that "What you talkin' 'bout Willis" dumbass blank look in the mirror...

    When a good idea...

    Meets the practical '79 GS1000 with a custom big bore kit, basically the same as the Yosh 1100cc kit but with 11.5/1compression and 1mm GSXR rings. BIG FAN of modern thin, flexible, low tension rings... friggin' impossible to install from the bottom. The GSXR has a plain bearing bottom end, so...

    Anyone go to the pride parades? Have fun? How's the sunburn? In case you didn't know (I didn't) Pride parades are on the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots of NY in 1969, basically the start of gay rights in the US. I always thought it was weird how the pride parades were WAY OVER THE TOP...
