Ahhh......love in a sidecar!

Do you like history? 

And motorcycles?

How 'bout a slice of'em both put togather?

Ural Motorcycles are the only motorcyles in the world that come standard with a sidecar.  In fact, they're specifically designed for a sidecar.

Yeah, I know that sidecar motorcycles aren't as fact as even some motorscooters......or other kinds of motorcycles.  And certainly not as fast as cars.

But there's just something about them that's always been romantic to me.  I'd like to have one someday.

And of course it would have to be a Ural.  Ural has a very interesting history.  Check out this PDF.

Downhill rollerblading......wow!

This looks like more fun than downhill skateboarding!

Ural motorcycles......like no other.

I'd love to 'ride the world' like these guys.

My imagination in real form

I used to skateboard a lot when I was in highschool and I always wondered why nobody did it this way.  Finally I discover that it is being done.  Way cool!

Dumpster Diving

 

Angels at work....

 

 

Many years ago I worked with a guy named Mike Murphy.  At the time, he was pretty high up in the ranks of an organization called A.L. Williams....now known as Primerica.  He told me a story about Chuck Norris that I always remembered.

Mike said he was on an airplane going somewhere once and he met Chuck Norris.  They got into a conversation and Mike mentioned to Chuck that he enjoyed his movies but 'weren't some of them a little cheesy?'

Chuck said yeah, they were, but they paid the bills.

That simply illustrated that Chuck was a working man just like everybody else.

Since that time, I don't know if you've seen any of the ads or not, but Chuck Norris has emerged as a soci0-political figure somewhat along the lines of Charlton Heston although to a much lesser degree.  He's done some 'drill here-drill now' ads, some anti Nancy Pelosi ads, and things like that.

He also writes columns in  an e-magazine called Human Events.  That's the same publication that Ann Coulter and Pat Buchanan write in.  Today I found this very heartwarming story about a brief encounter Chuck and his family had with a homeless person.  It sorta goes to show that Chuck isn't always kicking bad guys' asses but so he also has a kinder, more humanitarian side.

Yachting Lifestyle Videos...what a place to have a dance!!

Remember I mentioned SiteFlipAcademy and Justin and Chaunna Brookes several weeks ago?

They're still at it.  And doing very well.  And I'm still at it too. 

I've been slowly working on a project of a website about yachting and here's some of the videos I've selected in my research on gool 'ol Youtube.  If you're like me, you've not really had a chance to see much of what these supertoys of the rich and famous look like.

Enjoy:

Ahhh....I love the smell of burning rubber in the afternoon!

By the way, in case you don't know.....this is called 'drifting'.
