Mine is my baby , and if something happened to it I'd be freaking. But it is not the same as being wounded even though if something did happen it would feel as if I was shot. It's all just a figure of speech not literally the worst luck ever

When the wife's bike got a flat I had no idea what sort of tow job we were going to get. Had these visions of them hooking a chain to it and dragging it up on a flatbed.

But we got really lucky. Driver was a Harley rider and he took care of her bike as if it were his own.

Yeah it was just a figure of speech about my recent bad luck with the bike. Of course there are a lot of other people out there who truely have bad luck and in no way and I comparing it to that. Bike is now in the shop waiting for an estimate.

My feeling is, "6' over not under, life is good"
If I'm on the green side of the grass, everything else is a bonus.
