Any member here who uses a computer to read this site ( and that would be all of us) is using technology that Steve Jobs brought to the world. The loss of one of technology's greatest minds will surely affect us all in ways that we will never know. If you use a computer screen, a keyboard, a mouse, surf the internet, read email, listen to an iPod, have ever seen a Pixar movie (such as Toy Story, Finding Nemo, or Cars) or use a touchscreen smartphone, you can thank Steve. If you have not seen Steve Jobs famous commencement speech at Stanford University in 2005, here it is. It is very much worth watching. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF8uR6Z6KLc]Steve Jobs' 2005 Stanford Commencement Address - YouTube[/ame] And this article in the LA times is just one of thousands of items written about Steve in the last couple of weeks. http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-steve-jobs-obit-20111006,0,7210103.story Even Bill Gates and President Obama paid tribute to this man. I was surprised that there seemed to be no threads on this forum mentioning his death. Thanks for reading this, and, Thank you, Steve.

If you are looking or know a Vet who is looking, this may be of some help... "Finally, if you are looking for a job or know a veteran who is, I encourage you to participate in an online career fair hosted by the Veterans Administration and Milicruit.com this Thursday from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. CST. More than 60 military-friendly national employers from the private and federal sectors will participate in the virtual online jobs fair. Veterans can pre-register at http://veteranscareerfair.com. On the day of the fair, veterans can log in and visit employer booths, view job openings, apply for jobs, watch employer videos and presentations, chat live with recruiters, and complete on-the-spot video interviews."

She has been Asst Manager for the last 12 years on various jobs. It's only :mo money:

Got my parts in toady from Rick at Buckeye and will attempt tomorrow to repair clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder on my 83 VR. I do have the mannual that shows the diagram for the mc, but the directions for the slave are pretty vague. Anyone ever do these jobs or have any expert advice before I tear into them. Need to get old 83 up and running? Thanks, Clay -
It is time for a update and that I have not kept you all abreast of what’s going on in our world. Linda and I are loving living in Las Vegas, the weather is fantastic and I ride the bike all the time. We ride with some really nice people and we both have bonded with them very well and have made many new friends. If you did not know Linda absolutely loves her new job at the VA and really has connected with her co-workers. We have sold the house in Minnesota (Finlay). The economy is tough all over but really tough out here. There are allot of jobs in the minimum wage range and allot of competition in the better paying fields . I have been hired at Mandalay Bay as a security officer (only took 14 months). So far I have not met anyone of importance yet but I have met some rappers and hip hop players. ( kinda cool) I get to see some real high rollers and we get access to see some really good shows through MGM so its not a bad gig I just cannot gamble on any of there property's. I figure it’s a good thing. Lol So with all that being said I am really excited about this opportunity and the position is a good opportunity and it is a job I might just really like. We have bought a new house and finally got moved in so the last 4 weeks have been kind of hectic. We just got the Internet hooked up with the phone and cable in. We have no TV yet and figure to buy one in a couple months. I want a 60 inch plasma but the NAVIGATOR keeps telling me to think smaller. We are both very happy about the move here and think it was a good decision. Even though we left some really good friends but it opens the door for some very nice visits. Now here are some things we have learned about living here in Vegas. 1.When you ride the bike out in July 07 make sure it is not record breaking temperatures. 2.When it rains it really does pour like pee out of a boot for 5 minutes. 3.The roads flood very fast and do not drive through it. 4.The roads become slick (VERY SLICK) like driving on black ice.(on 2 wheels it sucks) 5.It is a dry heat like opening an oven and sticking your head in it. 6.Make sure you have a job before coming out here. 7.Make sure you change cell to local number. (they will not call you otherwise) 8.Make sure you get a Nevada drivers license right away. ( they will not hire you without one) 9.There are lots of jobs for local established people. (not out of towner's) 10.Before your hired they climb up your butt with a microscope and really check you out. So things are starting to turn around for us and with all the above we are happy with the move. We want to have a VR maintenance day at some point when we get settled. Right now we are fixing the place up. The owner of the foreclosed property was a idiot/ He took stuff and broke walls like a little kid who did not get his way/ Blamed the bank for his misfortune. I have lost 2 homes and many jobs but never acted like this idiot did. But we did get a good price on the house in a great neighborhood. Its more home then we wanted but in 10 years maybe we will make enough to retire.LOL You all are the GREATEST bunch of scooter dudes and dudettes. Hope you all can make it this way at some point because we have a place for you to stay now …….......................................Ron

I got an email the other day and then spoke on the telephone to a company that does custom paint jobs. He was interested in purchasing a banner on our site. I talked to him for about 30 minutes on the phone and he seems to be very customer oriented. His work is NOT cheap. It is top notch and professional. I do think though that, based on quotes that I've received in the past, his prices are fair for the type of work that he does. I declined the offer to sell him a banner simply because I haven't seen a LOT of interest here for high end custom paint jobs and I didn't feel that it was a perfect match for our members and I am committed to not adding banners just for the sake of making money. I do think though that this is a reputable company and worth checking out if you really want a nice custom paint job. I spent some time looking through the pictures on his site and really like the work that they do. They have been featured in many custom motorcycle publications, also television on the Biker Build-off and many other places. Here is the link for anybody who is interested. http://www.airea5150.com/

Good jobs use to be hard to find in WV. Now it's hard to find good people. A friend of mine said yesterday 25 people applied for jobs with his department. All 25 failed 1 or more of the first 3 requirements for hire. 1. Do you have a valid drivers licensee. 2. Can you pass a drug test ( been clean for 2 years). 3. Can you pass a criminal background check.
