It sucks it's getting "wintery" there. Same chit here. It was nice this weekend (sunny and even into the 60's), but here we are in the cold again...

It's all about the freedom to use the dumbest units of measurement in the world! LOL...

When I was a machinist/tool maker, one of my co-worker came up to me and stated,"I can't wait for this country to switch to the metric system, I hate all of these fraction."

I jokingly said,"Are you kidding we will still have 1/2-centimeters and 1/16-millimeters. Things are only going to get worse because we need to learn a new system."

This guys jaw dropped and he said,"Gee! I didn't think of that."

I about pissed myself.

^^ HAHA! Brilliant!

It's still better than a couple people where I work. One of them said to me once "The only reason they use the metric system is because they need smaller increments to measure their dicks"

It pains me to even repeat that, but yes.... it's true. Someone actually said it.

All this from a Sparkplug thread? I was also wondering what was the best tire. And Synthetic or Organic oil.................................as long as were poking the hornets nest.

Best tire.... Bridgestone Battlax BT021 or Michelin Pilot Road 2.
Oil.... Shell Rotella T
That was easy peasy! (as the brits say....LOL)

They say lots of funny stuff.
I like it when they call cigarettes "****". And we think they have no sense of humor!!! How's THAT for humor!

I was thinking Battle-axe; next set is both tires anyhow. I had Dunlop d-205 last season. Back is Shinko this season. <------Remember unemployed, but not too bad. Haven't hit the cold weather yet. 32 and snow flurries mixed with rain today. Wish all snow, better than cold rain. That's what I get for saying we don't have to winterize in Texas. Is the BT021 super soft for track days or more of a tourer? I think I fall in the tourer catagory but hope to make a track day at least once.
