We were in Venice, FL over the weekend...lots of bikes out in the 70+ degree weather.
Good luck and stay safe.

Is that good or bad? My brother will have cash and a firearm on him. Should I wait until both of us can go and pick it up? Two guns are better than one!

Ya know, you would think that I've learned my lesson about people. As most have heard me say, "I hate most people". Here's another fine example of scum-sucking assholes. I called "Jimmie", the owner of the bike, a little while ago to arrange the time for the pick up of the bike. Doing exactly what he said he wanted me to do. Call today and verify the time. Ole Jimmie says that he "talked to his buddy, and he says the bike is worth 500 more". So if I will give him the extra 500, he will sell me the bike. I told ole Jimmie what I thought about low-life bastards that don't keep their word. HE set the selling price, told me what he wanted, which was 6 grand. I didn't try to beat him down or offer him a nickel less that he said he wanted. Asked him what he would sell it for. He said 6 grand. Not 6500. I hate people. And also, if there was a clock, I'm sure the lying bastard would have said it keeps perfect time.

Just what we "locals" call that area. It's Orlampa - meaning the area between Orlando and Tampa. There are some stupid acronyms lately, like SODO - South Of Downtown Orlando.

I had a guy from the Lakeland area sell a car out from under me 5 years ago. Similar deal, even agreed on a time to pick up the car. I am literally fifteen minutes away the next morning, I call as a courtesy to him. And he informs me that he had "made a better deal" that morning and I should have called before I drive out there. Mind you... he knew I was leaving at 6am to be there for 8am.
