Happy New Year!

It's been almost a month since my last post. Chalk that up to general sloth and a depression brought on by crappy, unridable winter weather. The bike hasn't been out of the garage for at least three weeks now. Snow packed and icy roads prevail in my neighborhood and I'm not overly anxious to go down. I do get out to the garage several times a week to sit in the saddle and start her up. Wouldn't want her to think I don't love her.

Anyway, Christmas was great. Santa brought me a beer brewing set up and as I write five gallons of Special Bitter is bubbling merrily in the back bedroom. I've been wanting to brew my own for some time and I was excited to receive this gift. I shall use it wisely, always keeping in mind my friends who might otherwise be reduced to drinking some form of "lite" or worse yet, Coors.

I've enjoyed my few days off but tomorrow it's back to work for me. I wish all of you a Happy 2008 with many road trips to come.

My Wish for You in 2008

May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts. May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet of $100 bills. May love stick to your face like Vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May your clothes smell of success like smoking tires and may happiness slap you across the face and may your tears be that of joy. May the problems you had forget your home address! In simple words ............

May 2008 be the best year of your life!!!
