This proves two adages: "There's a sucker born every minute," and "a fool and his money are soon parted."

What exactly is your point? Just curious...

Just remember: Pimpin' ain't easy, but somebody's gotta do it.

Yeah, and it seems as though everyone out there is tryin'.

I mean, like, it's interesting seeing the newcomer Latino pimp style compared with the Brutha Hood style and, of course, the young whitey homage to the founders of pimp style.

YMMV

On my way to work today I saw a motorcycle... and he was riding in the rain.

Hey, that could have been me!

Unless he was pimpin'. LOL

I commute to work and back ~50 miles round trip, rain, cold or not (I don't ride if there's ice or snow on the roads]. Temps this week were mid 20s in the am and mid 30s in the pm.

Of course I'm packing [electric] heat so I'm toasty underneath.

YMMV

I've seen numerous people riding (pedal) bikes around town lately... in a foot of snow...

When I lived in MN in my youth I had a paper delivery route and used my bicycle in summer and winter; in winter I had a ski which mounted in place of the front wheel on the bikes fork axle. Wasn't all that practical in deeper snow, but worked OK in light snow. Of course on ice the front end slid out like an overspeeding and out-of-control luge.

YMMV

on my way to work today I saw smoke coming out of the ground. I saw a police man, a fedex worker and a lady walking her dog.

I saw a guy riding a motorcycle today! It was like 40Â°, so all the snow had melted, but still! Talk about a big, hairy, swingin' pair!

See now, Ian, you made me wake up the kids! That's OK, they'll return the favor in about 48 hours.
