Morning monkeys! It's a fine day...chilly, but I've got my coffee and pumpkin muffin in had and am ready for whatever the morning holds. Half day of work today and then we're heading up to KT for monkeyfest! I am looking forward to hanging with some good people, excellent riding, tasty beer and Jester :D

Full blown insomnia again!!! Hooray. As long as it isn't like 3 years ago when I didn't sleep for 9 months, (true story).

OMG hello to you all! It's so nice to see you all again! How have you been!

Three day weekend, 7 mile run last night at 8:09 pace, Yankees lost last night. All good things.

May I recommend a viewing of "Fight Club"?

Today is my new Thursday. :disgust: Thermometer in the truck says its 39 degrees outside. Rode the scooter in this morning and I'm still trying to warm up. Got new tires for the Wrangler yesterday, cripes what a shocker that was. 4 new BFG's = mortgage. :shocked: Though I guess I can't complain too much, the last set I put on I bought in Oregon, so they were at least 8 years old. Winter is here too, at least according to the ache in the old wounds. :think:

Here's hoping my new bike comes in today. Looking forward to 2-4" of rain this weekend. We have had less than an inch all year long!

Side note: I finally got neg repped! :D

Up sh*t creek, without a paddle
Head out for academy on Monday, so today is the last day at the "office". Got a birthday party for one of my daughter's friends on Saturday. Still have to collect a bunch of gear that I am going to need for the next 5 months. It's going to be a busy weekend!

Been at home sick for the past 2.5 days. The transformation of my voice from all nasally and stuffed up to partially gone to gruff has been a fun journey. Here's to hoping tomorrow brings better things, supposed to be attending a wedding. Good luck Brozeph at the Kahuna. :(

Thanks sweetie. Your presence will be sorely missed. Now get the F better so you can go back to doing fun things.


Drove the Jeep into work today, I could literally see the gas gauge dropping. Bah. And holy crap do I need new tires and a good alignment before the snow flies. Not looking forward to that $1k+ expenditure. :(

Leaving work around noonish today, dropping off a TV at my brother's apartment then picking up my friend's kids at school. Taking them to a cool comic book/video game store, then a quick REI trip. This weekend should be awesome.

HA, now I get to break your heart on the tires for your Jeep...... As of the first of OCT There was an increase on tire prices of 8% Across the board!!!!!

Sorry, but now I feel a little better.... I am going to go to work and cry now

Yea well......STFU :p

The good news is this will be the last set of tires I ever have to buy for the thing. It's got 130k miles now, I got ~70k miles out of the last set (BFG AT K/O), and now that I have my car I drive the Jeep at most 5k miles a year. Helps justify the cost, at least in my head.

Morning.
Phone queue is already busy. Ugh...just got here.

Some guy on one of those deathtrap bicycle/moped home mods got upset with me this morning because I passed him. He was in the middle of a narrow road, in the dark, no lights/dark clothing. He's lucky I happened to see him, the truck behind me almost didn't.

And BFG AT K/Os ain't cheap to start with. Try buying them in an 18" 10-ply version.

Over 3 years and 1,200 posts on Ridemonkey and I've avoided a custom title all this time. Should I be happy or butthurt? :confused:
A little bit of both. it's been 4 (almost 5) years and nearly the same amount of posts. Haha. We're in the same boat haha.

Lucky bastard
I just put 4 Toyo Open Country HT's on my truck for $1450.00 (285/75R16)
Ouch! I run load range E tires and went with a Pro Comp AT in that size before I went to an 18" tire. Absolutely LOVED them and very affordable too! Very similar to the BFG AT.

Welcome to teh :monkey:! Be sure to leave a long string of incoherent rage on the personal conversation page of whoever neg repped you, that seems to be the standard response. The next step is earning a "custom" title.
remember that time loco got so butt hurt he started a thread to call me immature... because i neg repped him in response to him neg repping me? :rofl:

and then he deleted the thread because he got even more butt hurt when i told him off?

Best thing that ever happened to ridemonkey was him quitting his office job.

Wow! It's only 9am and this thing is 3 pages long! It's going to be a good day!

We did our finances last night and realized we are terrible with money after the bills get paid, so we grounded ourselves. It's really my secret plot to save up for a cool trip. I wanna go to one of these RM weekends and ride and drink beer with all you crazy fvks! :)

Happy Friday!!
