Moto photos

I finally got around to washing the bike and taking a few photos. Here ya go. In case you missed it, I got a 2001 BMW R1200C.


Rest assured, this isn't my typical riding gear. No flip-flops!

Greta Van Nosejob

She looks like she walked really fast into a wall. Yep, that's Greta Van Susteren, possibly the least qualified jackass on Fox News (Steve Doocey is a close second). Check out her interview with the "First Dude," and prepare to want to kill yourself.

Billy Badass

I must be on some kind of Billy Badass kick lately, because I'm getting a bike, got a fresh tat and am even considering growing a beard just for shits and giggles.

I've actualy wanted to get a tattoo for about a year or so, but could never decide what to get. It couldn't be something trivial, so I eventually decided to get my lovely wife's initials done up. Luckily my co-worker had a 70s-era graphic design book with tons of really cool stylized letters, so I chose one that captures not only Dionne's initials, but also what I call her on a daily basis -- Di (pronounced like "Dee," not the princess who got killed by the paparazzi).

I know it's probably not his most challenging piece of artwork ever, but I think I found a pretty damn good tattoo artist. Check him out my man Guzik here. I kinda want another one now!

2 Wheels

I have been seriously slacking on the blog this summer. I admit it. Hopefully you've been able to live your lives without me for a while.

There's one major thing that's been on my mind lately: I'm getting a motorcycle this weekend. It turns out, my old man bought a new BMW K1200GT for himself and decided to give me his 2001 BMW R1200c. To get an idea of what it looks like, check out this page.

Here's the plan: I'm flying up to Pittsburgh on Friday morning. Then we're going to ride south Friday and Saturday, eventually making it down to Asheville, N.C. Then Sunday morning I'm gonna do the last 200 miles or so by myself and pops will hoof it back to Morgantown. It should be a nice leisurely pace!
