Hey, So many newspaper and magazine reports make no sense. They all attack one element or another in society. But yesterday I came across something finally interesting, as if this guy understood the code of the west. This came from David Leonhardt of The New York Times (published in the Week Magazine.)

Hey, We are in a building frenzy. Guys are building for Born Free, the Smoke Out, Sturgis, Bonneville, you name it. It feels good to be in a two-wheeled creative space.

Hey, I’m actually building another motorcycle, a Panhead, sorta. There’s something about digging around the shop and wrenching that feels damn good. I would rather work in the shop than hang out at any bar. In the past the only thing that would pull me away from the shop would be a redhead. I also

Hey, Maybe someone can help. We all come and go. Everything starts and ends, but I found out yesterday about my 94-year-old mom. She’s dying.

Hey, We have daunting questions chasing us for many reasons. Two political basketballs could save this country, so should, would we, could we make them happen. One is our medical system.
