    BWAHAHAHAHAHH! No ace, they gave you a minimal license that allows other people on the road to cut you off, force you off the road and kill yourself. Lets see, the MSF course approved for the license requirements in Texas takes about 8 hours on a single day and a single test. The training requirements for a Peace Officer in Texas is 17 weeks long with multiple tests, with a final test. It also has yearly training requirements and qualification requirements. Right, they're exactly the same. Oh 400-700lbs bike mentioned earlier? Try it on my 850lbs Honda ST1300. Try it slower than 5mph and try it turn stop to turn stop. Oh, to stay qualified as a motor, I have quarterly qualifications that I have to pass, over 6 courses that are exceptionally challenging to even the most experienced civilian trained riders. OK Dave.., You really are the best rider out there. Hands down!!!!! Sorry you ride a Honda! I believe that it is credit cards and cell phones responsible for this latest influx of non qualified riders. Used to be you needed to also be a wrench to get anywhere. So back to the threads original question about mandatory helmet laws.., what do y'all think.., How about this idea.., if you can demonstrate to the officer in the field that you can set your timing, have a piece of tin foil to wrap and reuse blown fuses, and know how to use a multi meter, no helmet is required? Let's work on getting that law passed. It's never quite that easy is it fellows. Ok.., One reason to always keep a helmet with you! So you can place it 50 yrds or so back from where you broke down. Yes young bucks , that means the dude needs some help. When you see the skull bucket on the side of the road it is common courtedy to slow down, stop, and see if you can help.Not everyone has a cellphone. Peace, Jim B

    a great demonstration of skill. Demonstration? What do you have to proove and to whom? Yeah, I'm thinkin' that only a retard would be proud of his 5 mile an hour motorcycle safety course certificate. Of course I have been wrong before. Peace, Jim B
  3. yes - cash out refi's are a significant portion of the underwater loans. The other are those who bought at the height. It's funny reading you talk about credibility. So in your opinion it has nothing to do with the bankers bundling up the mortgasges , often fraudulently, and selling them as Mortgage Backed Securities? It has nothing to do with the bankers betting on Credit Default Swaps? It was all just just people who took out home equity loans that were approved by.., their banker. It was the American people who caused this crisis and they Rightfully are the ones who should pay for it. Is that the crap you are attempting to pass here as pearls of wisdom? Listen, I know what happened and I know how the People have been fucked. I don't advocate violence but I suggest you and your co workers leave town and go into hiding. It can't be long before the tar is boiled and the chickens are plucked. Hey!!! If you don't mind a few discomforts I have some space you are welcome to under my tarp at Lake Jocassee , SC! I got grub, Kayaks and canoes and a meager income to pay for gas to fuel the bikes where we could blow it out a couple times a week Over these twisty mountain roads. Best of all, South Carolina doesn't require helmets!! Peace, Jim B
  4. I was just so overwhelmed at being so enlightened... I couldn't count! Chuck That's OK Chuck, I'm a little tired tonight but I will bring you to full Enlightenment and Understanding. Fact is you're already mostly there with your country roots and morals. Peace, Jim B
  5. Quote Home equity borrowing is not what it once was, and probably for the better that this is true, as that's how people got underwater. Quote Really? LOL! Do you really believe that it was the home equity borrowing that put people underwater? If you do you have zero credibility in any economics thread. If you do you deserve about as much credibility as those who swear that God sent the tornadoes to Missouri. Peace, Jim B
  6. Something to consider concerning 30 year mortgages is the fact that the banker, who created the money to pay for the house loan out of thin air, will make more money off of that mortgage than all the wages of the people who built the house and all of the proffits of the suppliers who supplied materials to build the house. Oh !! One more thing!!!! We also bailed them out!!!! WTF!!!! Peace, Jim B

How about Law enforcement officer licensing requirements? Restaraunt licensing requirements? Do you believe that the state is lax in all off it's licensing requirements or only those regarding ther licensing of motorcyclists? Peace, Jim B

    Quote My State, MO., does the slow course. The highway patrol officer sets the pace. It is very slow. Under 5mph. I just got my MC endorsement last year, although I've been riding on the street since '76 (I have more time on a motorcycle than I do in a car.) I passed the test 100%. She did say that very few people ever pass the slow course. Most try it on a big bike. I did it on my Fatboy. Quote Really? I mean , I don 't want to sway you from your Faith but,.. A five mile per hour course? Listen.., my spedometer doesn't even register that . MY kids(1) ride faster than that on their Big Wheels(tm)! Ya know.., I'm sure that passin' that 5 mile per hour *safety course* was a watershed moment in your life but really , I doubt anyone riding at 5 MPH who wrecked without a helmet would be all Gary Bussey and shit! I hate to say this but I'm thinkin' and I can't help myself.., Seems to me that graduating the 5 mph course should almost automatically qualify you for a certificate as a" Most Excellent Rider" of the short bus!
  10. LOL!!! I think he had my script but I'm not as handsome or as snappy a dresser! Peace, Jim B I'm sure you are as charismatic, though. I am more of a showman. I would have had snakes!!! Nothing is as convincing as snakes!!!!LOL! Peace, Jim B
  11. I am perfect in my relationship with the universe . So are you! And you would have been whether or not the Master, Jesus the Christ, ever incarnated. Peace, Jim B Yes...but would you consider yourself to be a good god? The question (and don't take this wrong) just doesn't make sense. There are no good gods and bad gods. There is one God in perfect harmony with the universe. We are part of and also wholly that. How can this be? How can we be a part and a whole? You do believe in the Trinity , don't you? Same kinda deal however this was Moses Moria -Els' true teaching and the concept he wanted all of us to understand. Peace, Jim B
  12. LOL!!! I think he had my script but I'm not as handsome or as snappy a dresser! Peace, Jim B
  13. LOL! Are you a product of government education???? Peace, Jim B
  14. Quote Here is a crash course in 47 words or less .(words used more than once are rightfully counted as one word. Duh?? Contractions are counted as two words.)Quote OK C'mon, admit it!!! There have been a bunch of you viewing.., not any replies. How many of you counted the words? LOL!!! Peace Jim B
  15. Psalm 82: God presides in the great assembly; he renders judgment among the “gods”: “How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. “The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. “I said, ‘You are “gods”; you are all sons of the Most High.’ But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.” Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance. What ? Are you attempting to bolster my point? I'm pretty sure you're not but if you read that Psalm I'm pretty sure it kinda agrees with what I've been sayin'. Oh one more thing.., This King David . The one who wrote most of the Psalms, how do you feel about that guy? Everything I've read pegs him as a bloodthirsty warmonger. I'm not saying that is the case , I just wondered about your opinion of the man generally credited with writing the Psalms you reference in defense of *your blend* of Christianity and your sanity. Peace, Jim B
  16. [replyYour delusion that the Palistinians desire peace with anything less than the 100% destruction of Israel and all the jews found there is laughable in its complete and utter lack of reality.Quote Amazon, My belief is that noone is entitled to or has any Rights to any parcel of land. People do however have a right to the improvements they made to the land. That being said has Israel compensated the Palestinians for the destruction of all the improvements that Israel has destroyed? Peace, Soon it will blow up in your face! Jim B
  17. But It's up to me to enlighten all of you to your true nature. It's up to me to reveal to you, yes even the atheists and the agnostics your true nature. When I'm finished you will finally see that ,well yes.., the Bible does make sense after all ! It was a fucked up way of going about it but the Truth was there for all to see. I don't know how long it will take , some will get it almost immediately, others it may take a couple days, weeks , years. All of you will come to understanding and enlightenment. That is guaranteed. Here is a crash course in 47 words or less .(words used more than once are rightfully counted as one word. Duh?? Contractions are counted as two words.) All of us are gods . We create. I'm not talking about the crap you just took or the baby you just popped out. I'm talking about true creation. I'm talking about the fact that you are capable of creating ideas!!!! And the entire physical universe was created out of one idea!!!! Peace, JIM B
  18. [replyI think you are on target. The alcohol/drug combination sent me into bizarre worlds. Alcohol=false courage Cocaine=false intelligence and good looks Psychedelics=false sense of deity Ron, Let me explain to you what you are missing. Jesus taught that we are all Gods' children. He was talking in metaphor as his audience was mostly uneducated. What he was trying to convey is the fact that if we are all Gods' children then we are all Gods. Jesus was nothing special other than the fact that he was educated to the highest learning, the Christ degree. Even you have to admit that if he was already god when he was born none of his sufferings would have amounted to a hill of beans as he was a god and could just shrug them off like nothing. He would have known that he could never die as he was god. And that's exactly how that occured ,isn't it? He shrugged it of like nothing. So what was his teaching? His most important teaching is that we are all gods as well. We are simply here having a human experience . I'll explain the why in a future post. Peace, Jmi, B
  19. I know and history is overflowing whith examples of very evil things happening when one mixes God with an ignorance of the true God(s). Peace, Jim B
  20. QuoteThe only reason you should respond to ANYONE here is if you enjoy doing so. Quote +1 It's all about your own "Most Excellent Entertainment" ! Peace, Jim B
  21. That Zero can not be divided into smaller parts. I don't know that it is "the one thing". I do know that it is one of the things. Peace, Jim B Coke. Coca Cola, It's the real thing! Lighten up! Have a Coke and a Smile!!! What are you reading down here for? It all happened before my sig line! QUIT STALKING ME!!!!!
  22. On the level? It is the force of and Creation itself. Peace, Jim B
  23. How come you never responsed to my question "are you a vet" .Quote I must have missed that question. Let me address it now . Sorry for the delay. I think I kinda can identify with Obama and how he must have felt when he realized the birth certificate thing was such a big friggin' deal!!! Let me answer your question and put all this nonsense to rest!! I do not presently nor have I ever held a doctorate in veterinary medicine. I have however innoculated many of my animals against certain diseases and have cared for their injuries . I hope that clears all that mess up for you and that you can go forward and enjoy a life of Peace. Peace, Jim B
  24. I am perfect in my relationship with the universe . So are you! And you would have been whether or not the Master, Jesus the Christ, ever incarnated. Peace, Jim B
  25. Allthough I am not *one of them* I am one *with* them. Peace, Jim B
