Having fun, being different, saving gas
With gas prices going up and up, I have been toying with idea of getting from one place to another in a different way. My solution - a scooter. I used to have one a long time ago and I really liked it. I purchased one this last weekend. I am already having fun.
Here's the deal- it's a mile to work, a mile to wallyworld, a mile to heb, a mile to the hardware store, all on backroads with the speed limit of 30 mph or less. So I'm going why not. It gets 115 miles per gallon. Full coverage insurance is $95 for whole year! I know, I'll the lose argument if I hot a truck, and maybe be vegetable the rest of life, but at least I'll be smiling. I've got a helmet and I thinking about getting me a big flag, and hang it off the back, just like the the guy down the street that drives his riding mower everyday for coffee to Dairy Queen!

hey, everyone
do not respond to the fenridal comment, it is some sort of anti virus thing that that me awhile to get rid off of my computer!
oh my. You are going down hill fast........ although if you are going to have a flag you need make it a GOOD flag.....that way Becky can find you in the ditch when you don't come back from wally world.
Going down hill nothing! It's just plain fun. I've always heard it said you must stop and smell the roses. Well, It's just my way, only I'm stopping, I'm going a mesly 30 mph, just to get a whiff of them.
Oops, I intended to say, I'm not stopping just going by.
I sent you a picture of what my scooter would look like. You know the outhouse on wheels. Sort of like a porta potty so when that beeg truck scares the c_ _p out of me because i didn't listen to Mama and rode one of them 2 wheel death traps!!
Hey, I got the email. I like it, it has everything you need. I haven't found a flag yet, but I will. It needs to be a little different.
