    ok any one know of this one in IOWA . i have to go there tomorrow. i have been fighting a military injury for ten years now. mostly to get them to own up to it.. and get some help . i have heard good things about this place. im going in for a brain scan. to see if my MS could be caused by a chemical spill that happened when a 6x6 over turned in our convoy. till this day i do not know what was in them barrels? this happend back in 82. and i didnt think nothing of it untill 1994 when they found out i have MS and some nerve and neuro damage. with the interferon shots for the MS weekly i do ok. but do due then good old economy and health care BS medicade and medicare are trying to cut off this medication. reason is it cost $1200.00 a month and i will need it for rest of my life. there saying theres a cheaper pill out there i will take everyday. and its around $550.00 a month. now im getting tired of who can and who cant controll my treatment. i dont want something that might not work when these shots are doing the trick. and i for one dont think a vet should be treated like a lab rat. if it aint broke dont mess with it. thats how i think. i guess im a lucky one i could be one of the 1000.s of homeless vets around this state. its hard to say im on ssdi and cant work like i use too. $750.00 a month plus being forced to get food stamps. makes me feel less like a man. sometimes i think of what my friend went through when he decided it aint worth it no more. then i see my daughter and great niece and family and just keep on keeping on. i now think when i get up every day insted of saying F it i place my feet on the floor when i roll out of bed and look up and say thank you. for one more day.

    well the bike is put away for the winter. and i went out today to find some seafoam to put in for the winter. i been every where from napa to o,rileys none on the shelves. but napa said they had a sister store 40 miles up the road and thay have a case of it. i then asked if they could have them send down a few cans? only need one but thought i would be nice and get 2 just for the hassle of them sending them to this store. the man said no but if you order the whole case we can do it? 12 cans at $8.50 per can? i politely left mubbling under my breath.. so question is? any other additive i can add? i once tried stabil in a motorcyle once and my carbs gummed up. STP any good? or just add carb cleaned to the tank? and let sit? i will not do anything till i figure it out. also since i now clean the storage office on weekends. yep got a little part time job. i clean and get free storage. and around 30 bucks for gas. thats my pay. so i thought hey would it hurt the bike to start it every weekend and just let it warm up for 15 or so minutes? then shut it down? this should keep the carbs in good working order. but still have some aditive in the tank..

    i went out to get a few things at the local grocery store. i had on a hoody sweatshirt. with the hood up . as i was walking down the isle a clerk came up and said sir you have to remove your hood? i said why? she said so the camera can see your face while in the store? and it frightens the staff. well i said ok i understand that but before i do this. do you know what frightens me about this store? she said no what? i said the damn prices. well that made her day.. and she gave me a free 20 ounce bottle of coke... but realy whats this world comming too when teens cash register kids are scared of a old man with a hoody on??

    thanks dano and every one. i called Dianne up in the great north dakota state. and then my daughter and well i just balled. i guess its ok for an old goat to do that. yep dano. im only 52. but sometimes feel like a old goat. im not sure where your from? but lets just say. i will look forward to a good ride with ya when the weather gets better. next spring. you know what they say the bike dont have to look good just run good. and well it did give me some good miles this year. and help from friends here made sure i got them miles. im thinking the front end got a little lose and will address that problem in the spring time. right now just dont even want to think about it. till spring. and my savings grow. i have dingys tool and think its just a steering bearing tighten thing. or replace. but right now i shouldnt be thinking about the bike. many thanks to you and every one..

    its been a real hard day for me today. im now the last man standing. when i joined the army back in 1977 5 of us hooked up and went in together. there was crazy bill anderson. born 1957 died 1988. outlaw john walker. born 1956 died 2008. alittle out there. dave olson. born 1958 died 2008. and today old wild cat. eugene (sonny) siltman. born 1957 died 2010. decide that life was not worth living any more. and decide he wanted to go home. and took his own life.. then my sisters verry best friend lost her battle with cancer. sometimes i wonder what goes through a persons mind to do this? how bad are the demons that tormented him. why did he fool all of us. he seemed all right last time i saw him? we all did one thing in life we wanted to do after our time with the service. we rode our honda 750.s from mn to az and back. what great memories. the 2 of us where hopeing that we could get our bikes in good enough shape for a long ride again. but at last he wont be there. thats why some how some way. i have to get the venture in great shape for next year. and i will get it done. i need one last long ride. they where my friends from my youth and past. i thank the lord for all of you. my new friends. in my middle years. just remember ride like it might be your last and enjoy gods world. peace my brothers and sisters
