The McGwire turkey…

Boston on one wheel…
So I’m a huge motorcycle guy….I sold my R1 a few years back but I have been eyeballing a new set of wheels ever since. I was never much of a wheelie or trick guy…. I didn’t like the idea of smashing up my bike to learn all the finer points. I was always a speed / cornering guy….and my risk was always very calculated. If it wasn’t safe…I wouldn’t do it. One of the things on my bucket list is to drive the Isle of Man on a 200 MPH bike….it’s going to cost me some dough….but I will make it happen some day.

The scorpion bowl effect…

For Boston…
What has 2 thumbs and is going to the Boston College vs Notre Dame football game tonight? Wait for it….this guy! Your old pal Dot Rat will be sitting behind Notre Dame’s bench tonight making the entire team question whether pursuing football was a smart …
Luck be a lady tonight…
After a pretty healthy portion of Bud Lights for Halloween. I think it may be time to retire my beer of the summer and go straight winter on my liver. It’s back to my favorite winter beverage, Ciroc vodka. It can be a bit pricey …
