A Little Rock man listed his motorcycle on Craigslist. He agreed to meet the buyer at another location. Bad mistake. The seller was shot twice and the bike was stolen. This morning, the news reported that he died.
So, be careful when selling your bike.
Didn't buy into the hype, you can keep the change.

Wow! I can't believe that happened in "The Heartland" of all places! Nope, 'cause from what I "understand", this sounds more like somethin' that would have happened in California and/or New York. (...you know...where all those "Godless people" with "no moral compass" live!!!)  
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

The shooter has been arrested. That sucks, I would never rent a U-haul and take a bike to somebody. He must have really needed to sell it. Killer Arrested
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

Little rock is a rat hole.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Hey now, Chad! Our own John Bullen seems to like it there anyway!
(...of course, now that he's switched from ridin' a Triumph to a Beemer around and upon the highways and byways of Little Rock, I suppose his opinion COULD be a little suspect, huh!)

Shouldn't be any more than a family squabble in Arkansas, isn't everyone there related?  
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.

Here in Ga. an older couple from Marietta went to farm country in south Ga. in response to a bogus Craigslist ad for a classic Mustang. Knowing they were coming down with cash, he robbed and killed them.

The lesson is never go meet a stranger named "Jeramye".
In other news it's been reported that in some major cities Craiglist has been linked to an epidemics in sexually transmitted diseases.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

It's kind of interesting, in a racist kind of way. When I read the local news, about the "big city", 20 miles north of me, I can usually tell what race the perp is by his/her name. Names like "Shondelle, and Kaynye, are pretty good indicators the criminals are "of color", and because of "immigration to the area, probably from Chicago.

Sometimes I don't know where
This dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
I guess I keep a-gamblin'
Lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
It's easier than just waitin' around to die
One time, friends, I had a ma
I even had a pa
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
She told him to take care of me
Headed down to Tennessee
It's easier than just waitin' around to die
I came of age and I found a girl
In a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and hit in on the sly
I tried to kill the pain, bought some wine
And hopped a train
Seemed easier than just waitin' around to die
A friend said he knew
Where some easy money was
We robbed a man, and brother did we fly
The posse caught up with me
And drug me back to Muskogee
It's two long years I've been waitin' around to die
Now I'm out of prison
I got me a friend at last
He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie
His name's Codine
He's the nicest thing I've seen
Together we're gonna wait around and die
Together we're gonna wait around and die
