    I mentioned friends running Vet MXdN. Here's a video of my buddy Bengt falling in front of, then getting drilled by, Grant Langston. Broken shoulder, wrist, and an amazing hip bruise. http://www.dirtbikerider.com/news/video-s7/CRASH-Grant-Langstons-off-at-2016-Vets-MXdN-i14148

    Ive been up all night, government healthcare

    Europe consistently develops and approves new medical devices faster than the US. Indeed some jobs we recommend to our customers to start there. Making money when there is a single payer (almost all of Yurp) is no problem. Easier than here IF you are lowering cost or creating better outcomes...

    Insurance companies have done so much better, eh? No corruption or red tape there..... Do you know anybody that doesn't like "their" medicare? Yes, it can be a pain and the cost containment means you can't have everything. But cost containment is exactly what we are talking about...

    Change the last word to system and we agree 100%. The sooner we have single payer, the better. Medicare for all.

    MXdN Teams - who is going to win?

    MAN I wish I could have pulled off timing for Maggiora MXdN. Some great teams. Good Ole USofA is going to have a tough time of it but has a chance. Complete list of teams here: http://www.cyclenews.com/2016/08/article/2016-motocross-nations-teams/ My guesses- 1st Belgium. Strijbos...

    Ive been up all night, government healthcare

    I don't blame everything on republifucks or democraps. They both are stupid. But this forum mostly has people on it that seem to, maybe I'm wrong but that's my impression, blame everything on progressives or at least democraps. So I end up sounding like I'm defending democraps when I'm just...

    Go to a mxgp

    This coming weekend is Vet MXdN at Farleigh Castle. Friends (Team International Air Hammer - all on 500 air cooled) are running. You can probably still get a plane ticket reasonably. Team usa is Dowd, Dehoop, Emig, aaaand, I forget.

    Ive been up all night, government healthcare

    Look at a graph of total health care cost versus time. There is no change in the slope after the implementation of the ACA. It may have shifted some cost to you but it shifted cost off of some too. Problem with it is that it did nothing to control cost. A story. Our customer, with our help...

    Go to a mxgp

    They are tons of fun. Everybody should get out of the good 'Ole USof A and see the world. An MXGP is as good an excuse as any. Off to the Teylers Museum where they have the apparatus that measured the speed of light back in the 1700's. And a bunch if other cool old scientific instruments...

    They're not afraid of the consequences of a Hillary win. They just think she's a jerk.

    Obamacare had no effect on the cost if healthcare. Thanks to the insurance lobby and republifucks that insisted on changes in committee then didn't vote for it. You can not like BHOcare all you want but until somebody reins in health care costs, doesn't matter. Costs will rise and guys like...

    Go to a mxgp

    Indeed. Moto 2 was much drier and my ancient Caroli T-shirt (still #16) got comments when he won! Crowd was less than impressed but hospitable as he beat their guy Gajser (and DeSalle). Had dinner and found a pub where everybody wanted to be our new best friend. And talk about how bad Trump...

    They are totally cool. Who knows what the heck the crowd is singing to oompah music but I bet it's got something to do with Heerlings 2nd in moto1. Mud/sand fest.

    Speaking of O.I.R.....

    '73. Thought I was fast. Coupla kids named Penton and their crew showed me I wasn't. On their bikes with lights.

    AHRMA Race Sat Sept 17@ Amherst Meadowlarks

    I'd consider busting out the C&J. If it didn't involve buying a membership.

    No more mudders?

    Emergency reply from a cell phone as I'm testing the new one. Mud is fun. And you'll be a way better rider if you can get the hang of it. Everything slows down so that those big moves don't hurt as much when they go wrong. You get really dirty though.

    GP anyone?

    That was a blast. If I had to stretch my imagination to find something the promoters could do better, I'd have to say that the area right after the barrels was congested. Kid scoring my line (+50) was really fast and waving me through and a couple times somebody on the +25 line would be...

    Trump daddy

    Read that again. Elected officials - BHO and his appointees and members of the administration - are trying to throw the illegal immigrants out. It's unelected, appointed, judges that are rejecting that. Sounds like largely for asylum reasons but not obvious. One guy that used to work for...

    Being a medal winner doesn't mean you have to be a sterling example of an honest US citizen apparently. What a bonehead.
