My van has an oil leak. Couple weeks back, the oil leak and the heat combined to create a fire in my catalitic converter. If I had any gas in my van I would probably be a ghost right now. New catalitic converter 4 bills. Fixing the oil leak. priceless

The irony might be that as long as I'm more likely to ride my bike around town, the more likely my brake calipers sit and rust. Maybe that's not irony.

You know, I have never actually been to the fabled Irish Eyes- we'll have to pick some Friday night and hit that shit (let's hear it for the new schedule, yeah!)
