Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? -- Oddball If I were King: sillycentrist.com/silly-centrism

Selling two beautiful well-loved motorcycles as is. They are priced to move... and on the market for a month with no serious Cycle Trader customers. In the spring, I am buying a sports car, so if I get no offers these end up at the Mazda dealer. #FortCollins #Kawasaki #Sport #Touring #Colorado

In my late 1970's: A Sorority girl was raped at a Fraternity at CU Boulder. It was swept under the rug. (Cornell today). A soldier I served alongside in Korea killed his toddler and beat up his Korean wife. It was swept under the rug and he was spirited out of the country. (Okinawa today)

Went to the dealer to sell them my 2009 Kawasaki Concourse 1400, the greatest motorcycle ever made... and they already have a 2009 Connie for sale. So they are changing some fluids instead. End of an era? Too bad. Motorcycling is fun.

The Palestinians killed 2000 Israelis in the three year war, mostly on the first day. The Israelis killed 70,000+ Palestinians and won't let up. More fatal bombings ocurred this week. One man's 'disproportionate warfare' is another man's genocide.

Why on earth should the Federal Government forgive student loans? This has never made a whit of sense to me. Why not my hoem loan or to pay off my car? One should never take out debts they don't intend to or can't pay off. It is both dumb and immoral to the others you saddle with the bill.

My mom was a therapist for adult children of satanic ritualistic abuse. This is not that kind crazy. This is the kind of crazy that will justify doing horrid things. "He warned that the (Kennedy Center) will end up being ripped down if he is not properly recognized for his efforts to renovate it."

As I age and my fingers get clumsier, I want to disable the CapsLock. It is oversized and wedged in next to Shift, Tab, and the most used letter in the English language. WHY ENCOURAGING ACCIDENTAL CAPS LOCKING? IT IS UNAMERICAN.

A popular business reporter worth well above $100 million says nice things about my old company, KLA. A slew of other media regurgitates this sentiment in he-said articles and it jumps 12%. KLA is a brilliant company. The gushy article didn't change the company, though.

When I enlisted in the US Air Force in 1980, these dress uniform shoes were issued to me. They have always been my dress shoes. I got married in them. I watched others get married in them. I fidgeted in these shoes while putting dear friends to their final rest. Now it's there turn. Good bye, Shoes.

A brilliant business journalist and interviewer joined the Evil Side and became a fascist in 2013. Since then she has spewed nothing but political garbage. Why would anyone make that change of 'heart'? $10M a year. Better question: How is a propagandist worth $10M a year?

I just stood in front of a parked truck with a 60" hood. It came to my neck. This was half a block from where a murder wagon (Silverado?) ran over five people on the weekend, killing one. Texas plates in Colorado tell you everything. I am very biased, though. I lived there twice. Texans often suck.

Paying someone was more difficult and fraught with danger when I was younger. You kept your own record of the balance and a simple math error on your part makes the rent check bounce. Now I swipe my watch and a spreadsheet is notified. Then we did lots of math adding $748.57 and $23.19.

Medical records need to be persistent and linked to patient not the doctor. - I need to renew my prescription. We have no record of your prescription. - I have been treated for this condition since 1982. You're doctor has not seen you on this condition. - She discussed this with me two years ago.

Headline: 'College can cost $100,000 a year. Here’s how families are covering the tab.' CSU in my town cost under $20k for tuition and fees. Our community college is even cheaper. Paying more is idiotic. Cars CAN cost $500k, but mine sure doesn't.

When I retired ten years ago, I took this trip from San Jose halfway to London and back on a Kawasaki Concours 1400 named Starship. This is one of three multi-month 'walkabouts' I have taken as an adult, hitchhiking in the Seventies, on a Gold Wing during mid-career and this grand adventure.

Speaker of the House says the midterm election is a contest over “whether we’re going to maintain our status as a constitutional republic or we’re going to trade that in, dismantle the foundations and go down this dark road of death to communism.” We've got bigger problems then communism, mate.
