Have I offended anyone?
There is a Frank Zappa album with a similar title to it, you know, which is an interesting topic in itself.
In short, I believe that Zappa, along with numerous well-known rock musicians and singers and performers, were part of (and still are to this very day) a covert operation to undermine the morality of this country, damage the solidity of the Constitution of the Unites States of America, corrupt the minds of young people (much to the disapproval of any parents who cared for their children), and to pave the way of throwing the old-school morality of this country out with the trash and to bring in the NWO, the new way of doing things.
That is:
A one-world government, headed by the United Nations, that satisfies the big wigs who are really calling the shots, not our puppet president and his homo cohorts - they are just sell-out players much like Frank Zappa.
And why would they be sell-out participants in such a thing?
Because, I believe, they felt they were part of a superior class of people that had the right to do such things.
Why else?
And, when it comes to the Talmud-believing Jews who go to their synagogues to listen to the Big Daddy Rabbi preaching such superiority over non Jews, they already have a head start in the I'm-Better-Than-You sweepstakes.
I'm not talking about Joseph Average who's just trying to get by like Christian Joe Average, but I do mean that's why there are Much-Better-Than-Joseph-Average Jews in high places that have sold this country down the river in order to usher in the NWO:
They were raised believing they're King Shit.
Shifting gears...
I've been on a few Pachaug enduro loop rides since the last post, the most recent one just yesterday (Sunday, as usual).
I had high expectations for yesterday's ride since it was gray and cloudy (excellent visual conditions for me), but, wouldn't you know it, the sun started peaking out from behind the clouds about two miles into the ride.
It did stay cloudy for most of the ride, but by the two-thirds mark, the sun was staying out much of the time, and that was a bummer.
A bummer because those good conditions were washed away just like that, making me squint in order to cut the brightness down.
So, the ride was, overall, decent, but not great as I initially felt it was going to be.
The WR-250FP, I'm happy to report, felt very good for the 43 miles out there, and the single time I shut the engine off was to stop and take a restroom break, a side-effect of drinking lots of water this time of year.
I've recently communicated with two other people about the possibility of going out on the Pachaug loop for a ride - one a guy who I've known since the mid-1990s, and one guy from an Internet message board who I've never met I person.
We'll see if anything materializes.

422: Ol' Blue
The WR-250FP after yet another Sunday Pachaug enduro loop ride.
Squeaky-clean, and quite blue.
Today, I went out a bit earlier than usual, getting onto the trails by 9:00am.
This was because I went with two other riders, one who I'd ridden with on the Pachaug loop twice last year, and another guy who I'd not met before today.
How'd it go?
Not bad at all.
Nobody died that I know of, no crashes that I heard about, and I had a decent ride out there today.
Although the sky was clear and the sun was out brightly, I still managed to ride well enough to get a good feeling from the bike and pull-off some decent riding.
The other guys were still breathing at the end of the 45-mile ride, so I'm assuming they enjoyed it, too. :)
Gear change:
Here's a question:
Does anybody know what the difference is between Jews and Christians (such as Roman Catholics)?
I mean besides the big noses.
Answer:
Jews do not and did not accept Jesus Christ.
And why is that?
They didn't like how Christ laid it out for them in plain language that they were no longer towing the line in morality and doing unto others as you want done unto you.
In other words, the elder Jews were doing stupid shit like conducting money-making business inside of God's temple, which was a place of worship, not money and profit.
The Jews also didn't like how this guy Jesus Christ was thought to be the messiah that was foretold to be coming one day and liberate the Jews from all of their oppressors with violence and force and place them above all others, but instead, Jesus was a man of peace and reason, and one of the rare times he did get violent and used force was when he tossed the Jewish businessmen, themselves, out of the temple on their asses.
As they deserved.
In spades.
So, since Jesus pointed the finger at the head Jews and told them they were fucking-up, and because Jesus proved not to be the much-anticipated Jew-championing warlord that they wanted but a man of peace who spread the Word of God instead, the head Jews decided to conspire and petition to have him killed.
So, there you have it in a nutshell:
Christians accepted Jesus for what he was - a bringer of peace and life - while the Jews rejected him because that's not what they wanted in their kind of new guy in town, which was supposed to be somebody to be pro-Jew and anti-everybody else.
Much how it is to this very day, by the way.
Don't agree?
Bucky, you must have your head in the sand and have been hoodwinked by the bullshit lies and propaganda on TV.
Why don't you quit having a puff on that joint and go find out what the Jewish Talmud teaches.
Because, you see, I was born and raised in a Roman Catholic household and went to a Roman Catholic church every Sunday (as well as Roman Catholic Sunday school immediately afterwards) for years while growing-up in the 1970s.
It was taught to me from as far back as I can remember what Jews like and don't like, and folks, they don't like Jesus Christ.
In fact, they not only don't like Christ, but don't like you or anybody else they don't recognize as being a real, true-to-life, full-blood Jew.
In fact, they don't view being Jewish as a religion, but a race of superior people.
Truly disgusting in my book.
This is what they are taught from a young age:
They are superior and you are a stupid, inferior idiot worthy of being tricked and cheated by them, something that they call Goyim.
They also don't like minorities, especially blacks, who they call Schwartzas.
I can only imagine the choice words they have for Obama behind closed doors.
You think the KKK is a racist organization?
Hardcore Jews are at least as racist.
Did you know any of this?
What does this have to do with anything today?
More on this later.

421: Payback is Fun - There's Nothing New Under the Sun
Bill Gates, Microsoft bigshot, and, according to magazines that are about money and greed (acquiring more and more money), one of the wealthiest guys in the world.
Since he was born in 1955, that non-gray hair on his head has either been colored-in, or this is based on an older pic.
That snake on his shirt is the ages-old symbol of wisdom and intellect.
Who's got this wisdom?
Ask the serpent in the Garden of Eden.
I don't believe for a second that guys like Bill Gates got to be one of the world's richest men without a pull-up from other bigshots that are above him on the rich man totem pole.
No way.
I do believe he got there by guys more senior than him allowing his company to get as big as it did because they saw a use for him.
Basically, he had help in getting to the spot he got in by other guys who got to the top before he did, himself.
So, what do you think happens when the guys who helped get you there see a need to get something done, and they feel you ARE going to be involved in it?
No-brainer, Lenny:
They'll tell Bill Gates, "Hey, Gates. Time for some payback. Don't forget who helped get you where you are today. Don't disappoint us. Wink-wink. Nudge-nudge."
Hogwash?
You think Bill Gates will bite the hand that feeds him and tell them to f-off?
I doubt it, as that seems perfectly logical to me.
What's more, I feel that's exactly what a wealthy psycho would say to one of their juniors:
I got you here, now pay-up, pal.
So, now Mr. Microsoft is a guy who is part of these TED seminars brainwashing people that we have to stick needles in folks living in these 3rd world countries in order to "help" them.
You know - the places full of people that these guys want rid of because they're useless eaters who are clogging-up the world's population and standing on ground containing the resources that these fat cats say they own.
That's because they claim to own the whole world, you know, even land which you supposedly own and pay your property taxes to your local town hall every year.
That's your rental fee.
And if they actually lay claim to the whole planet, you can bet your ass they'll do as they see fit, and those people over there just ain't fit to live in their vision of what the world should and will some day be like.
I don't think Bill Gates is reluctantly doing this stuff, which I believe is a scam and a lie and rooted in deceit (lies, in other words), because, by now, he's one of these guys and part of the club of wealthy men who have taken on oath or two to keep secrets, protect their brothers, and strive to complete The Great Work as they give each other those funny handshakes, say their code words, and laugh up their sleeves at the profane idiots below them.
After all, if you were as smart as they are, you'd be right up there with them.
Because, you see, governments of countries answer to organizations of these guys, an example being the United Nations.
Just who do you think started or even dreamt-up the idea of the UN?
Some dirt-poor guy wearing a white toga who wanted peace and love in the world?
You're nuts if you believe that stuff.
No, more like the UN is the front organization for these Godless, psychotic bigshots who fear no punishment from God, who believe what they say goes, and who have their fingers and influence on where the world shall be 5, 10, or 50 years from now.
Changing gears:
I went out to a different riding spot yesterday, a place I'd been to once last year.
It's a plot of (so I am told) private property off of what's known as a "rail trail", a path through the woods where railroad tracks used to be.
The steel rails and wooden rail ties are long gone (the New Haven Railroad quit using this rail line in 1968, if I remember), but the path, or railroad bed, is still there, and since there are people living out there, there are plots of private property all along this old railroad bed.
So, what do you do with this wooded land out along this abandoned rail bed?
Ride dirt bikes, goddammit!
I made plans to meet with a couple I've known for about 7 years and spend part of Sunday (yesterday) farting around on the trails and small sand pit on this property.
It was OK, but I only did 7.9 miles according to my odometer.
That's not much riding for a day's dirt biking, so the guy came up with a good idea:
Next time we go out there, we'll connect the trails together into a makeshift loop and ride laps around the loop.
Makes sense to me, as that's exactly what I'd do for myself if I lived there and had unlimited use of it.
We'll see.
Today is Monday, Memorial Day, so there's no jerk today.
I still feel like I haven't ridden enough this weekend, so I plan on going out to the usual Pachaug enduro loop sometime today on the ol' WR-250FP.

420 People Sneezing Due to Pollen
There's probably a lot more than that.
Here's a pic (that's the thing above) of one of the Central Cycle Club Pachaug Rock Ride arrows that were used to mark the trails.
What's the CCC Rock Ride?
It's pretty much an organized trail ride that uses the same trail loop in and around the Pachaug forest that I ride on Sundays.
Once a year, the local motocross track (CCC) promotes this ride out on the ol' Pachaug enduro loop, and for the riders not familiar with the lay of the land, these florescent orange arrows point the way around the trails.
NETRA, by the way, is the New England Trail Riders Association, the organization that I'm a member of and also the organization (if I understand what I've read correctly) that went to bat against people (or, one guy in particular, so I was told) in the state of Connecticut bureaucracy waaaaaay back around the years of 1970 - 1974 in order to get dirt bikes un-kicked-out-of the Pachaug forest.
The agreement that was struck is the Pachaug loop I ride on.
Why were dirt bikes kicked out of the Pachaug forest back in the years just after the hippie-dippie movement?
My guess is due to a few retards ruining it for the rest of the responsible, intelligent riders with a brain in their heads, as well as some stupid environmentalist going ape shit at the sight of a knobby tire track on the ground, and that's assuming he got off his ass to go take a walk out in the woods to begin with.
This idiot probably cringes at the though of digging a hole in the ground, yet drives a gas-guzzling Rolls or 20,000-pound SUV that costs $3.2 million, but that's not being a hypocrite.
That is, if the fool is still alive today and healthy enough to drive.
Today's Pachaug loop ride was one for the record books.
I felt very good on the bike today - it was cloudy (yes!), there was great traction, low dust, minimal water, and I rode the sections of the loop that I reserve for the days where conditions are good enough and I'm feeling good enough.
Total mileage for the day was 57.7 , which is about 13 more than I've been doing so far this year.
Today was one of those great days, I'm happy to say, as I rode well and felt good doing it.
The balance of the bike felt good, the tires worked well, and the bike ran strongly.
All-in-all, it was the kind of ride that makes me wish I had $3.2 million of my own tucked under the mattress so I wouldn't have to go to jerk tomorrow and could do some more riding, instead.
My profession would be riding and wrenching my WR-250FP.
I am feeling well and truly tired after having such a good ride today (and a good walk out on the trails yesterday where I picked up that arrow shown above), so, I'll have to save my thoughts on life, liberty, and how we're being scammed by rotten guys in high places for another time.

419 Days Since the Last Post
Well, not quite, but it has been a couple of months.
Why the big time gap?
Basically, I became annoyed by how this site would unpredictably alternate between my not needing or my needing the password to gain access to this bloggy kingdom and all of the wealth riches that go along with it.
So, I often felt like not even bothering to conjure-up yet another new password since I'd forgotten the last one.
So, of course, when I felt in a rare mood and decided to roll the dice and try to access this account to blog away, I wasn't even asked for the password.
Word, homie.
First, about riding on the Pachaug loop on the WR-250FP:
I started my weekend habit back up a month ago, and so far, ground conditions and the weather have been quite good.
Two of the rides were cloudy (good) and two were sunny (bad for me), but all-in-all, the rides were anywhere from good to great, so I'm not complaining.
I need a new rear tire badly, and I'll probably mount-up a new M22 before the next ride on Sunday.
The front sprocket teeth are getting thin, and I'll probably change that at the same time as well as disassemble the rear suspension linkage and swingarm pivot for another greasing of those parts.
Important stuff that you can't neglect, lest you go in there to not maintain a high level of lubrication and cleanliness, but to actually remove and replace damaged parts your lazy ass failed to maintain in the first place.
That's not my style.
Overall, the bike is feeling good.
New tires (or, at least a new rear, although the front is worn, too) will only make it better.
Now, a couple points having to do with other big things in life:
The recent gun control political scam.
That's right:
SCAM.
That's all today's politics boils down to:
One big scam.
We're supposed to believe that we are electing people to go to Washington DC to do things for the benefit of the people of the USA (good), where in reality, it's more about these guys being self-serving, crooked, corrupt, dishonest, and not caring what happens to you and me as long as their lofty lifestyle is not compromised.
They've sold out, in other words, and have traded honesty and doing the right thing according to the Constitution of the United Stated of America for wealth, a position of lofty status among their also-lofty peers, and, pretty much, a sense of being better than the people they see as being below them.
What applies to you and me doesn't apply to them, in other words.
They're special.
Who says?
They do.
The shit they're pulling is using these intentionally-done events like the Sandy Hook shooting and the Boston Marathon bombing to be able to point their fingers at what happened and say:
"See? We need more gun control laws and everyone is a suspect terrorist."
It's all a scam, and the goal is the complete disarming of the people of the United States of America, as per the treaties these guys have signed to be on board with their bosses, the guys who run the United Nation, the front group for the wealthy and powerful men of the world who REALLY believe they're a lot better than you are.
These guys are into the Luciferian philosophy, after all, where the belief is that man, through the use of his superior intellect, shall evolve to the point that he, himself, conquers the Earth, conquers nature, and becomes god (and that's god with a lower case g).
You can't get any more conceited and big-headed than that, and that's the caliber of characters we're dealing with on this stuff.
They see themselves as being superior to all others on the planet, feel they have the right to do such things because it suits them, and if it hurts you...oh, well.
They believe in no God like you read about in the Bible or learn about in church - they, themselves, are god as far as they're concerned.
So, with no belief in God, they fear no retribution or punishment from God if they pull bad shit on you in order to make things better for them.
There's nothing keeping them in check.
There's nothing stopping them.
They're Godless.
So, if our Washington DC politicians have sold out for money and status, take orders from their bosses at the UN who aim to bring the whole world under their brand of a one world government and economy, plan on using conjured-up shootings and bombings to use as a cheap excuse (no matter who gets killed in the process, as long as it's not them) to push their lies, take your weapons away to remove your ability to defend against what they want to bring down upon you, throw the Constitution for the United States of America in the trash, and want to bring the world under their vision of some utopia that suits them, what does that mean for us?
Use your head.
Believe in your instinct and gut feeling that, yes, there ARE people in high places that will do you wrong.
Do you wrong because it suits them as they see themselves as being much better than you are and what really matters is what they want.
Knowing is half the battle.

418 Days Until Warm Weather Comes
Actually, we're over half way through winter according to the calendar (this week will be two-thirds, in fact), but that's what it sometime feels like.
Winter sucks when it's cold.
I need to move to a part of the country where winter doesn't feel like winter.
I haven't posted in about six weeks, mainly because I hate how this stupid blog/google/who-ever-the-hell-actually-owns-and-runs-the-place keeps asking me to log in with a password that I can't remember.
You might think I'm joking, but I'm not because it wasn't like that until a few months ago.
I used to be able to enter my friggin' password once, and then I could set it to automatically remember me whenever I came back for more bloggy fun.
Not now, though.
So, since I got sick of having to make yet ANOTHER new password, I decided to hold off on posting until I some day decided I wasn't too sick of it.
Today is that day.
See how such a dumb and insignificant thing can be made into such a big deal when put into printed words?
See how it can take-up space?
I bet there are people working for the bad guys that make a career out of doing just that.
I should get a job writing stuff for some political movement.
Not a political bowel movement, though - I mean working for the good guys that want to abide by the Constitution of the United States of America.
Remember that thing?
The thing that, when followed, allows you the freedom to do whatever you want, as long as you're not bothering anybody else while doing it and not doing anything unlawful according to the Constitution of the United States of America.
The WR-250FP has been sitting here since the last ride on December 23, 2012 - nearly two months ago.
At least it's all cleaned and well-lubricated (I wouldn't have it any other way), and it's literally ready for the next ride, whenever that is.
Next month?
We'll have to wait and see.
I expect a period of having to allow the frozen ground to thaw and go from soggy mud to reasonably firm ground, something that usually takes two or three weeks of warm-enough weather.
In past years where we have a normal winter (and that means it gets cold enough long enough to freeze the ground), we have ground still in the process of going from frozen to soft-'n-gooey mud to normal in the first half of April.
Bummer just thinking about it.
But, with each day the sun sets a minute later than the last (it's up to 5:25pm, now), and as each day ticks off the calendar, we inch a bit close to decent weather.
See?
Another paragraph blabbering about stuff that is so ordinary, it should make your teeth bleed.
Imagine how many words could be covered with some sneaky bureaucratic type typing propaganda intended to intimidate you about paying your income tax, lest you end-up like Al Capone did for tax evasion.
All my life, I heard that Capone landed in jail from income tax evasion.
Being more specific, it was actually from not paying a tax on booze he brought in from Canada, which was a lawful tax.
Did you know this?
Funny how you don't read that so easily.
My shoulder is coming along pretty well, although I can still feel the effects of falling on it on the last ride nearly two months ago.
I have about 99% of my normal range of motion and some minor pain at the extremes of it, but it's miles better than it was a day after it happened.
By the time the first ride of the season comes, I believe I'll be able to ride the bike in a reasonable fashion, although I'll be cautious because it still feels like it's on the mend.
Maybe by July, it will be back to normal, eh?
Still going on motorcycle forums and message boards, as usual, and still reading a lot of stuff that I simply cannot agree with, as well as the usual questions and comments coming from somebody that makes it sound like they either started riding yesterday, or haven't learned anything after supposedly years of doing it.
Great.
Go ahead and wreck your bike.
It gives me something to read while winter passes. :)
Today it's windy with a temperature of about 25-ish degrees.
I think I'll go out for a walk along part of the ol' Pachaug enduro loop for a bit of exercise and to just get out of the house.
I did my chores for the day of laundry and sewing a button back onto one of my work pants.
Actually, they're work-or-whatever-else pants. ;)

It gives me something to read while winter passes. :)
Today it's windy with a temperature of about 25-ish degrees.
I think I'll go out for a walk along part of the ol' Pachaug enduro loop for a bit of exercise and to just get out of the house.
I did my chores for the day of laundry and sewing a button back onto one of my work pants.
Actually, they're work-or-whatever-else pants. ;)

417 Feet of Snow
I'm now wondering what the next great prophecy is supposed to be.
Hopefully, it has a lot to do with some good dirt bike riding, goddammit.
So far, it looks like this winter ain't gonna' be an above-normal one, temperature- and weather-wise, like last year's was.
We got about 8 inches of snow Saturday evening, and the temps outside for today and the next two days is for below normal.
I don't care for snow and cold weather, and I don't like my main interaction with the ol' WR-250FP to be my walking by, stopping, and squeezing the clutch lever as the bike sits parked on a stand.
If I had about $500 to spare and didn't need to buy another barrel of overpriced fuel oil for heat inside the house, I'd like to try a set of winter tires that come with those carbide-tipped friction spikes sticking out of them.
That is very tempting, indeed.
My tender shoulder is healing well and feels much better than it did 10 days ago.
