This affords me much more time to intricately inspect the protruding breasts of women with their shirts raised. Worth every penny and minute saved for such worthy endeavors. <br /><br />For the record I've never had a mullet. <br /><br />Respectfully,<br /><br />RonmanRonmanhttp://www.ridesroadsandronman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428154721977251894.post-12371847426692257202012-05-04T05:33:49.942-04:002012-05-04T05:33:49.942-04:00i love the comparison of oil change & sex haha...i love the comparison of oil change & sex hahadiscount motorcycle clothinghttp://www.mkmoto.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428154721977251894.post-75644424845069224252012-05-01T11:03:45.556-04:002012-05-01T11:03:45.556-04:00Dear Conchscooter:

But getting a woman to lift up her shirt is easy... Just ask. Masny do it for me in supermarket parking lots. <br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jack/reepJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428154721977251894.post-67247413490884845922012-05-01T11:01:01.040-04:002012-05-01T11:01:01.040-04:00Dear Bobskoot:

Changing the oil in a BMW K75...Dear Allen Madding:<br /><br />Changing the oil in a BMW K75 is a delight. The manual is largely written in English, though the diagrams and pictures in the sane bok are captioned in GERMAN. One picture is generally worth 1000 words, except when the verb is at the end of the sentence. <br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jack/reepJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428154721977251894.post-87359222794104067872012-05-01T10:52:08.954-04:002012-05-01T10:52:08.954-04:00Dear Shango:
