Tonight,around midnight,while on my way home on my scooter,the temp was a blistering 39*F, according to my radio thermometer.[it was cold] As I was passin by one of the local pubs,I noticed several of the Harley boys mounting their "machines" to leave and watching me as I passed by on my scooter.But they must have been tough cause they had no windshields,no helmets,no gloves,and were wearing leather jackets,and of course,shades.[sun glasses] Now the temp was 39*F and I had my heavy gloves on,my helmet with ear muffs,and the windshield. So I guess,I must be soft,and they must be tough!! So tough must be spelled "S-T-U-P-I-D"!!: Maybe I should buy a Harley so I can be tuff too!!
