Default why has "TIME" slowed down

hi,

its strange....ever since i placed an order for my new 08 harley (my first harley to boot!!).....time seems to be going so slow.

Do you all have any suggestion on how to deal with this my delema.

Sure do. To make time go exponentially faster do any of the following: 1) Have teenagers, 2) hit your 40th birthday, 3) hit your 50th birthday, 4) approach the end of warranty period for anything you've bought. Caution, combining any of the above suggestions can accelerate time so that you may just wake up tomorrow and find that you've aged a few years.

To pass the time you could always start shopping for accessories for the new scoot. There is never enough time when it comes to buying accessories.

I know what you mean, the closer I get to my vacation the slower time seems to pass.
