A younger buddy of mine bought a used motorcycle a few years ago. I got a call from him when he could not get it running. Ends up he had never had a vehicle with a carb and had no idea what a choke was.

After buying my first fuel injected motorcycle (Ducati) I will NEVER buy another carb based bike. Oh how I hated tuning and synching those infernal carbs.

I have a Walkman somewhere. I don’t know why I kept it. I was moving and had come across my HUGE box of old cassettes. I was thinking of digitizing them. Then realized how many hundreds of hours that would take and tossed the whole lot in the trash. I suppose I’ll regret it when an EMP takes out my MP3 player when I’m craving some tunes on a mechanical analogue device.

Gotta run, going to go watch Blazing Saddles on Betamax.
