    Me two I would love to see more open Christmas spirit and flag waving in our two countries. Lets put Christmas trees back in our malls and fly our flags with pride like we have done for generations, instead of hiding in the shadows of politial correctnes fear. Exactly why we need to have more public display's of our beliefs and patriatism to let our governments USA and CANADIAN know who our two countries belong to and not to be intimidated be recent immigration or politial correctness BS. I am all for religious freedoms what ever that may or may not be. But not to the point were people born and bred on these shores have to stiffle ours just because Johnny come lately say's so, yet expect us to accommadate thiers.

    Guy goes in an adult store and asks for an inflatable doll. Guy behind the counter says, 'Male or female?' Customer says, 'Female.' Counter guy asks, 'Black or white? Customer says, 'White.' Counter guy asks, 'Christian or Muslim?' Customer says, 'What the heck does religion have to do with it?' Counter guy says, 'The Muslim one blows itself up.'

    fortunatly for Brad he has an attached garage, so it will have foundation walls and very likely weeping tiles around the parimater. This greatly reduces the moisture issue, over a freestanding garage and particularily one that sits on a simple slab (such as Mine ) Local ground water levels, is also a big factor .

    I have used both My garage is so bad for condensation that in the spring water just drips off of my big drill press. During the winters when my garage is too full to get into I use the outdoor method. I even leave my battery tender in there and leave it plugged into the outdoor oulet. Come spring or even a nice day I just uncover and go. P/S and I always put seafoam in the tank ride to the gas statation and fill it up before I cover it up. The carpet is a good addition or outside plywood on top of a sheet of an oversized sheet of plastic then pull the plastic up the side and put the cover on. An old blanket under the cover does not hurt either. it allows air movement betwween the cover and the were it would contact the bike. I add some extra gromets to the bike cover and stake it to the ground

    Concrete floors in a garage sweat or breath moisture. This is worse with garages on a floating slab floor, and garages with no drainage. This moisture contacts the cold metal and you get condensation. Best thing to do is seal the floor. Next choice is park the bike on an oversized piece of plastic. Next put a bike cover on. then loosely pull the plastic up the outside of the cover about a foot. You can also use this method when storing a bike outside in the winter. only difference is you pull the plastic up under the bike cover and leave a small drain hole in the bottom to allow any accumulated moisture to drain out

    Well Dad has been sliping backwards since I last posted. On the good side his red blood count has gone up and his white blood count has gone down. at one point his red blood count was so low they had to give him a transfusion. On the bad side his breathing is so weak that yesterday they inserted a treachia tube to help with his breathing. The ventilating tube they were using has apparently been used to its limit, with regards to running the risk of additionl bacteria being introduced. As well he has apparently gotten quite adapt at using his tongue to push it out. Mentally he drifts in and out largly I believe because he does not sleep and is exhausted. Apparently they have also run the limit as to how much they can sedate him and sleeping pills have no effect.

    I was. Thought I would meet up with you knowing you would be there and we could go for a coffee after. but by the time I got there everthing already went down ( pun intended). I am sure you will be able to live it down in time though.

    By the way everyone for some of you who may not be aware of this, There is a small issue you need to keep in mind when using this tool with a torque wrench. If you mount the tool on on a torque wrench at a 90 degree angle to the torque wrench . You may set the torque wrench to the exact torque spec. If you mount it at a 45 DEG. angle or straiaght in line. You have to do a small calculation to compansate for the additional length. In otherwords you set your torque wrench at a lower setting to compensate for the added length. Here are two links that will do the calculation for you as well as explain it. The second link actually gives you a pic of the torgue wrench setup. you simply fill in the boxes and it will tell you what set your torque wrench at in order to reach the desired torque. http://www.freeinfostuff.com/TorqueExtension/TorqueExtension.htm http://www.belknaptools.com/extcalc.asp

    It was entertainment night at the Senior Citizens Center. Claude the hypnotist explained: "I'm here to put you into a trance; I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience." The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat. "I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations" He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch. .." The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs eyes followed the swaying watch, until suddenly, it slipped from the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces. "SH**" said the Hypnotist. It took three days to clean up the Senior Citizens Center. Claude was never invited back to entertain.

    I have the TOM TOM Rider 2 and love it. It is waterproof and is designed for the motorcycle. It coms with a scala rider headset ( although any blue tooth device will work with it) and Ram mounting hardware. Here is a link to the new tomtom rider http://www.tomtom.com/en_gb/products/bike-navigation/
