OK, sorry I can't resist.............

So why do we "drive" on the "parkway" and "park" on the "driveway"

(yeah, I know it's an old one)

I'm MAD I tell you, completely mad. When the good weather gets here, and 
stays, I will put another 12k miles on my ST in five months, just like last 
year.............I have spent all my money on the stuff you guys keep 
recomending........I am now officially insane........Let's go riding really 
fast on some seriously twistie roads...care to join?

Ah-ha-ha-ha-haha !!!!!!!!!!!!
