Being retired I have a lot of time on my hands so just out of the blue... How many of you are on XBox Live and what games do you play? I bought my XBox after testing out a used GTA4 game I bought on Ebay for my 16 yr old & I was hooked. I Play Grand Theft Auto 4 Saints Row 3 Red Dead Redemption to name a few, I know my son has a lot more games. (Call of Duty type shooters) Hey if enough of us are online maybe we could share usertags & set up a party

Went to Tucumcari yesterday to the MotherRoad Rally were at least 3 VR members there. Was great time with lots of money prizes for bike and non bike games and a drawing for 5000.00 bucks. 200 bucks for slow ride and those games and a very good live band that played all day long those guys had to be tired.

Didn't tell y'all that a couple of weeks ago I was at my local club watching the Keno numbers coming and going on the screen. Now I know this game is all about luck and chance, but I started to see a trend in numbers clumping together in blocks. So I thought - "What the heck. See what change I have in my pocket and pick 6 numbers. You never know." Found $3, so I took 3 $1 games with the same 6 numbers for each game. Blocked 27 28 36 37 38 and 39. You're never going to guess what happened. You got it. $1,800 there and then. Spent it already. That was about the third time I'd ever played the game, and haven't been tempted since.

I know this is a motorcycle forum, but it is late and I just have to rant. It seems like everywhere you look today we are developing alternate ways to communicate. Talking face to face has all but disappeared. I see kids that only use their cell phones for text messaging. There are more ways to keep yourself isolated and still be a part of society. How is that possible? I talked to a kid at my church that said he had not left his house all week. He said he sat in his room and played video games, chatted online, and sent text messages to his friends. I just figured out yesterday that I can go online from my cell phone and order a pizza or even groceries and have them delivered to my house. I don't even have to get off the sofa! I was at 7-11 the other day and when I went to pay the total was $3.71. I gave the clerk $5 and then reached in my pocket and found $0.71. The clerk had already punched in the amount so when I handed him the $0.71 he looked bewildered. I had to tell to give me $2 back. That is pathetic! We rely so much on technology that a 7-11 attendant cannot make change without the help of the cash register. Now I am seeing on the news that parents want schools to serve healthier foods in cafeteria and take out the soda vending machines. But these are the same parents that didn't even flinch when the schools abolished the physical education programs. They also let their kids sit for hours on end and watch TV and play video games. Then they want to blame the schools for the kids being fat? My nephew's school started a program where the kids (elementary school age) can eat their lunch inside while playing "educational" computer games. My sister got together with some other moms and got them to shut that program down. But I fear that it may be in other schools where parents do not care. Don't get me wrong, I am all for technology. I think it is amazing that I can play a game of chess with someone half way across the world. However, I also think that just like everything in life, it must be used in moderation. Like everybody here, I have used the internet for linking up with people of same interests and email. Heck, I have even bought some Christmas presents off the internet this year. But if the internet crashed, cell phone towers fell down and my electricity went out all at the same time, I would still be able to cope with life. Yesterday, I took my son and my dog to the park and we played for hours. No video games or TV, just a tennis ball, a big grass field and a playground! We walked there so we didn't even need a car. When I was in junior high, my friends and I rode our bikes to and from school rain or shine. After school we would ride our bikes 5 miles out of the way to go ride in a nearby dry lake bed. We would ride hard untill dark and go home dirty and sweaty. We had video games but we only played those when we couldn't go outside or when we were home from school sick and had to stay inside. I was walking in my neighborhood about 3 months ago and came across an open garage with an HD electraglide in it. There was a guy knelt down next to the bike cleaning it. I aproached him and we began talking. I invited him to go on a ride with the group I ride with. He came to our ride and now him and I are calling each other every other day with "...you gotta come over and see what I bought!". What I am trying to say is that I hope that 50 years from now, our kids and grandkids are still playing outside and not just "acting it out" in a digital world. I know this is a really long rant but I think it is up to us to make a difference. I vow to take my children to the park, camping, hiking boating, and any other outdoor activities that keep them off the couch. I will keep them active and make sure that they experience real life and not virtual life. God Bless you, Bubba
