BTW, I went back into AFib today and will be back in the Doc's office early Monday morning.<br /><br />I can relate. My last motorcycle was a Goldwing set up to do Iron Butt rides and 24 hour rallies. It had 3 GPS receivers, a Laser shiftier, radar detector, TP monitor, all on what I called a farkle shelf above the dash. There was also a writing desk on top of the fuel tank, HID running lights and water packs for hydration.<br /><br />I think Guy Clark said the difference between men and boys were the size of their feet and the cost of their toys.<br /><br />May we never grow up,<br /><br />ken I'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-75247281404025009212020-01-18T18:48:20.273-08:002020-01-18T18:48:20.273-08:00Ted,

As we grow older life puts some wear on our components, which is a bummer. I often think about the challenge of not letting that reality take over. Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. Best get back to the chisels!<br /><br />As an aside, I find your love of chisels interesting and amusing. Many of us do the same thing with another focus. I have added so many aftermarket parts to my motorcycle that it's become ridiculous.<br /><br />AndyAndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394365117138074832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-34997401051535563572020-01-16T00:50:22.565-08:002020-01-16T00:50:22.565-08:00Steve,
