    Default One for the Harley guys

    So my buddy tears his rotator cuff and has shoulder surgery. He can't ride but also can't pass up a great deal on a new top-of-the-line Harley. What else could I do but offer to help get it home from the Harley dealer.

    You should have a boom with a hook and a "AAA" sticker.

    Hey, it says in the book not to do it, so it must not be doable!

    I'm glad some people are willing to try the unconventional!

    Hilarious story all around! I love it!

    Actually, I'm surprised that number 10 on your list isn't "Dennis's wife tears his shoulder again" .....

    What do you mean by "endless repeats"?

    If it's because the same topics keep coming up...
