(Which was more ironic when my profile to the left listed me as a "government brainiac" instead of proud Bandit Alley tote bag holder.)


Hey, you got a tote bag?

How come I didn't get a tote bag???

You didn't get a Suzuki yellow tote bag with "I get it from strangers at Bandit Alley" printed on the side?  Maybe you didn't contribute at the "suggested level"?

Cashiers checks are no longer safe for individuals...


OK, I yield.

I don't understand why a *real* cashier's check from the bank would not be 100% safe, since it represents actual cash which is deducted from the account holder's balance at the time it's issued.  In other words, it is cash that has been transformed into a portable instrument.  Unless the bank it's drawn on would suddenly fold, you should be safe.  Anyone who knows more about cashier's checks is welcome to educate me (or all of us) on the topic.


Hmmm... we've used cashier's checks several times for land purchases in amounts up to $40,000 dollars... same as cash. Titles were signed over upon deposit. Real estate agents use them all the time as good as gold.

Sven, don't get frustrated... we all realize by now that CWO lives in an alternate universe where gixxers are comfortable, bikes are cheaper in California, and bank/cashiers checks aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

I think it's some kind of tear in the fabric of space/time that enables him to communicate with us through the ethereal virtual space of the internet... sorta like a wormhole from Bizzarro World, y'know?  :bandit:

It's ok,.. that bag is a figment of his imagination ;)  Holds lots of imaginary stuff though.  Want me to send you an imaginary tote too?

Forget it. Give it to some little girl to keep her "Hello Kitty" gear in.  :roll:

Yellow is the color of the Suzuki racing team jersey.  Herro Kitty is generally pink.  You must have some sort of congenital abnormality.  (And no, despite the word "genital" I'm not referring to the problem you and your urologist discuss.)

Let it go.  Anyone who's innersted can read the entry on "cahsier's checks" at Wikipedia.

"Here" is a mighty small domain.  Svengeance can cross space and time.  Or at least reach all the way to Canadia.

You sound like an expert on Hello Kitty pink and other gay colors... I'll keep you in mind if any of my friends need advice on decorating their nurseries...   :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Out of deference to Stormi, I won't correct your reference to "Herro Kitty Pink" other than to suggest that there's a word that's *sounds* a lot like "Kitty" that more accurately describes the color in more red-blooded manly terms.

So as Zenman said I see myself in that future reality riding my new blue and white GSXR with no one to complain when I bring it in the house next to my small TV.


Small TV?

Come on, man, if you're gonna be re-joining the ranks of fun-loving single men on the prowl, ya gotta think BIG.... 48" plasma screen with surround sound so you can watch the Military Channel, Faux News and all the good games in full, mind-blasting color and 5-channel room-shaking sound effects! No one there to complain, remember?  :bigok:
