What error is that, in my signature, Keith
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.

Geez, there REALLY must be a HECK of a lot of snow and ice left after that blizzard up there, HUH?!  
Okay! Yeah, "I got it", and yeah I caught the drift of your "complaint" about Chad's thread here.
But, you see, as usual, I couldn't resist "rubbin' a little salt in the wounds"(kinda like that stuff they spread on your roads up there this time o' year!  ) about how you guys up there in YOUR version of "God's Country" pretty much have a "riding season", whereas you see, many of us residing in our own version of "God's Country" down here and out this-a-way really don't have what is commonly known(up and back east there) as a "riding season".
(...and soooooo, now do YOU get it?!...it's just Dwight bein' a smarta$$ again, THAT'S all!!!) 
OMG did Dwight just type "I got it", 
ok who are "YOU" and where did the real Dwight go???

I was going to tell you all about my last Sunday ride where Jo & I went to a country pub for lunch. 260 Kilometre round trip, 32c. nice twistie country roads.  Great steak for lunch and a couple of cold beers.  Good company. But no, on second thoughts, I don't want to make your CABIN FEVER worse.

You just gotta post pics thats all, they only get angry if you don't post some nice pics, and put it in poem form. I don't get the must be a poem but Keith really wants it that way. He had been frozen for several months so I'll just indulge him on my next ride post. pics for Biker and prose for Keith. Complete opposite ends of the great northern tundra.

That's okay loco... nobody needs or wants to know about your 'next' ride. As someone said in this thread, "it gets old." Save it for your sweetheart...
"How was your ride dear?"
"Oh the wind felt so lovely, and I almost laughed."
"That's nice."

WELL, Chris I don't remember ever saying anything to you for you to be an ass to me. Niether have I responded to any post you have made. so I have never "busted your hump". However you have "busted mine" over punctuation. So you realy aint gotta read any post I make if'n ya don't wanna.
Keith and I go back and forth, so do me and Dwight. as far as I can see its "noneya" as in noneya buisness.

I think you have it all wrong. Would he spend this much time effing with you if he _didn't_ like you? I know I wouldn't. Just this morning I got a message on Facebook from a woman who is a good friend of another gal I know. Because I tease them both constantly on Facebook (and in person, naturally) she was under the mistaken impression I thought she was a b!tch (her words). I responded... are you kidding? If I thought that I wouldn't give you the time of day. Turns out she's the wife of the president of my bank so I'd have to say that anyway.

Come on here, fellas!!! What say we lay off Chad here, HUH?!
So the guy just puts a little "blog" in the Lounge about a short little ride he took the other day and in which he makes mention that he could feel "Spring coming on". Soooo WHAT'S the big friggin' deal here, HUH?!
Look fellas, we've(well, at least SOME of us here anyway) had some fun "bathering"(there's ya a familiar word for all of us folks who've been around here a while, HUH?!) in this thread, HAVEN'T WE???!!!
(...soooo, like I said, how's about givin' our Texas Boy down there in his version of "God's Country" a friggin' BREAK....OKAY????!!!!!)
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)

My Father smells of elderberries.
Dwight, you like to give me hell about the "Gods country thing. So let me explain.
(as violins begin a quite mellody) You see Gods country (a small chorus of birds chime in and the camera gets a close up of the speakers face) is anywhere a man is (The camera pans away to a grassy valley with some trees scattered out with snow topped mountains off in the distance) were he loves to be.

I always liked:
Late Lament
(Graeme Edge)
Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
Watch lights fade from every room.
Bedsitter people look back and lament,
Another day's useless energy spent.
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,
Lonely man cries for love and has none.
New mother picks up and suckles her son,
Senior citizens wish they were young.
Cold hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colours from our sight.
Red is grey and yellow white,
But we decide which is right.
And which is an illusion???

Being Tuesday and such,
Tuesday Afternoon
Moody Blues
Tuesday afternoon,
I'm just beginning to see, now I'm on my way
It doesn't matter to me, chasing the clouds away.
Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near, I've got to find out why?
Those gentle voices I hear, explain it all with a sigh.
I'm looking at myself reflections of my mind,
It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind.
So gently swaying through the fairyland of love,
If you'll just come with me you'll see the beauty of
Tuesday afternoon, Tuesday afternoon.
Tuesday, afternoon,
I'm just beginning to see, now I'm on my way.
It doesn't matter to me, chasing the clouds away.
Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near, I've got to find out why?
Those gentle voices I hear, explain it all with a sigh.

I like more than just E.A.P. I read F. Scott Fitsgerald, Hemingway, Robert Frost, Samuel Clements, Tolkien, C.S.Lewis, Lewis Carroll, I can't think of who wrote "the Catcher In the Rye". He died recently.
Those along with many others. Give me some credit I'm not that one dimensional.
