Little Bruce and Jenny are only 10 years old, but they know they are in love. One day they decide that they want to get married, so Bruce goes to Jenny’s father to ask him for her hand.

Bruce bravely walks up to him and says, “Mr. Smith, me and Jenny are in love and I want to ask you for her hand in marriage.” Thinking that this was just the cutest thing, Mr. Smith replies, “Well Bruce, you are only 10. Where will you two live?” Without even taking a moment to think about it, Bruce replies, “In Jenny’s room. It’s bigger than mine and we can both fit there nicely.”

Mr. Smith says with a huge grin, “Okay, then how will you live? You’re
not old enough to get a job. You’ll need to support Jenny.”

Again, Bruce instantly replies, “Our allowance, Jenny makes five bucks a week. And I make 10 bucks a week. That’s about 60 bucks a month, So that should do us just fine.”

Mr. Smith is impressed Bruce has put so much thought into this. “Well Bruce, It seems like you have everything figured out. I just have one more question. What will you do if the two of you should have little children of your own?”

Bruce just shrugs his shoulders and says, “Well, we’ve been lucky so
far.”

Mr.​ Johnson no longer thinks the little shit is adorable.

• The old guy in the room below us at the hotel was chastising someone in our group about MY bike being parked in his spot. It was his spot because it was in front of his door.
• He complained about it to the desk clerk while we were waiting for our limo to take us to the Big Texan.
• She told him that there was no assigned parking and it was first come first serve.
• He said that this was wrong and he’d never stay there again.
• Big loss for the hotel.
• I did not get involved in any of this (proud of me Mom?) because I know I would have dragged the issue to the lowest possible conclusion. Add in the fact that my ass hurt from the 8 hour ride and I may have moved this past a simple disagreement to something worse.
• The Big Texan is a place that has to be experienced and I know I can’t give it justice in my descriptions.
• This morning I find an older gentleman inspecting our bikes. It turns out that he’s  preacher from Sweden and is in town to give the sermon locally.  We talked about bikes and God and impressions and his bike back in Sweden and the new stuff our bikes all have. It was a pleasant half hour.
• He also showed me his tattoos that he got before accepting God and changing the direction of his life.

I wonder where he will be this year?

Every year the French have a 4 day celebration in Normandy complete with American uniforms, tanks, jeeps and guns. They still honor the Americans who died there.

In all the years since, Our country has only FOUR TIMES not been there to do the honors.

Four times in 69 years!! I wonder who would have had the lack of respect to not honor our fighting forces?

SHAME ON AMERICA FOR ELECTING A NON-VETERAN PRESIDENT WHO DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF: HE IS ABSOLUTELY A DISGRACE TO
ALL WHO FOUGHT FOR THIS NATION AND GAVE THEIR LIVES.

VETERANS – PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO YOUR VETERAN FRIENDS AND CONTACTS!!!!!!

June 6, 2013, the 69th anniversary of “D-Day”, the largest invasion ever attempted, where 200,000 Americans stormed the beaches at Normandy to begin the final push to defeat Nazi Germany in WWII. D-Day marked the turning point in WWII in Europe . Today, European heads of state make it a point to recall and honor the sacrifices of those who landed in Normandy , as do our Presidents….well, most of them….

In the 69 years since D-Day, there are four occasions when the President of the United States chose not to visit the D-Day Monument that honors the soldiers killed during the Invasion.

The occasions were:

1. Barack Obama, 2010
2. Barack Obama, 2011
3. Barack Obama, 2012
4. Barack Obama, 2013

For the past 69 years, every American President except Obama have taken the time to honor the memory and sacrifices of the 6,000 American soldiers killed on D-Day. …Except Obama!

June 6 2010,
Obama had no events scheduled.

June 6, 2011,
Obama met with the National Security team and was interviewed by WEWS Cleveland and WDIV in Detroit about the auto industry. FAR too busy to visit the D-Day memorial.

June 6, 2012,
instead of honoring our fallen soldiers, Obama made a campaign trip to California on Air Force 1 (at our expense) to raise funds for (his) upcoming election.

June 6, 2013,
Obama was doing ANOTHER fund raiser with the multimillionaires in the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in Palo Alto CA , once again at our expense.

America – Aren’t you proud?

Tomorrow, Nina and I will be heading to Texas with the SF HOG and spend the night in Amarillo. Dinner is planned at the Big Texan and a stop en route at the Cadillac Ranch is also on the agenda. On the way home we will be stopping at the midpoint of Route 66 for pictures or something else. They’re also planning a stop at a truck stop with a free car museum, but Nina and I may peel off there and do out own thing on the way home.

IN OTHER NEWS

Nina informs me that hospice will be reviewing ML’s meds and may start removing them slowly from her. She is retaining water and I guess that’s a bad thing.

Erin is with her father’s family after an extended visit this week. Mother’s Day prompted the extended visit. Belle wanted Erin for M’s Day. She feels she is Erin’s mother. Tori disagrees.

I plan on climbing the pole again today. I want to get that stupid light changed out and be done with that pole. The pole is the one with the lights between the gas pumps. I hate climbing that stupid ladder. I’ve replaced the high voltage lights with LED’s and I went the cheap route the first time. Big mistake. The new LED’s are much better and the quality shows.

After that, my day is all mine. I may break out the bike and go for a ride. I’d like to head up the canyon toward Tererro and visit with Huey, but the last time we headed up there, his store was still closed. Nina thinks he opens Memorial Day. If the place is still closed, I may head up to Jack’s Creek to continue the ride. Beautiful country up that way.
