    Yupper Brad!! I pretty much exclusively use plastic and besides being fee free it better give me a cut of those transaction fees they charge the merchant every time you use the card! I prefer the cards that give 5% cash back like the GM card. So far I have redeemed over $8000 on new cars thru the years and already have almost $1000 for the next car next summer. I am constantly redeeming restaurant gift cards as well! I don't use any card that is less than 1% cash back. Yes, pay them off in full every month as it would be really stupid to pay 14% interest to get 1% to 5% back!! I also take out an "interest free for a year" card every year for major purchases and emergencies and make sure I have them paid off when the year is up. It's hard to come up with several thousand dollars at once but with 12 or more months to stretch it out with monthly payments of one or two hundred dollars. As a matter of fact I'm using Capital One this year and besides being interest free they also give me money back!!! Yes, over the years there have been "incidents" but they have never cost me a dime! Like you mentioned, the credit card company will call to verify any out of country or out of state purchase that seems out of the ordinary. A word of advice, if you are planning a vacation and are travelling, let your credit card company know in advance the location and dates of travel so they know you may be buying some trinket in East Noweresville...

    Word of warning with "Lemon Scented" furniture polish, it can attract bees! I am currently using Behold as I am alergic to Yellow Jackets. Furniture polish works great as it cleans the bugs off of your shield and as stated works like Rainex...

    Hmmmm, credit cards... If they ain't fee free, they ain't for me!! Sorry that you are having such a hassle with them! Hey, what's not in your wallet?!!?

    They are addicting, aren't they?!!? Sort of like potato chips, you can't have just one! I'm seriously thinking of doing a "Dingy" on my '84, but it gets expensive...

    Yup! He was on his way to a hospital all right, or more like the morgue! Probably wouldn't be enough organs left to donate at that speed...

    I did the same thing with my piggybacker when I was using Goldie! Even did the fenders too. And, I mounted my box the way yours is because it looked better and worked out better with the cooler there...

    Hey, perfect time to change the tire, fuel filter, and detail the undercarrage... Funny, I have a similar picture of Goldie from several years ago...

    It's also quite an interesting study to see who does and who does NOT wave!! The non-wavers typically ride one particular brand of motorcycle, but not everyone that rides that make are non-wavers...

    Thank you VERY much my friend!!! As a Vietnam Veteran myself I can not begin to express our gratitude! At the time we weren't received very well and though we weren't looking for any kind of hero's welcome (we didn't feel like we were heros, we just did our job) we certainly were not expecting to be spat upon and to be called baby killers either!! There shouldn't have been any reason for any of us to feel shame for serving but unfortunately many of us did begin to feel that way.

    Hoope you made it thru OK Jeff! Hopefully everything is still in one piece and not now living in an underwater community...
