This will be my 3rd attempt at getting my license , The first attempt in
1976 failed due to my chain flipping off and ripping my oil filter off
and putting a hole in my crankcase when I hit a pothole pulling into the
parking lot of the testing site , My second attempt in 1980 ended much
the same way when my rear tire ( almost new) blew out while waiting 3rd
in line to get on the test course .

I am now scheduled to take the test once more this coming Wednesday and
am wondering if any one knows someone I can get to bless me and my bike
so that some unseen misfortune doesn't strike me again this time lol ?

This time I have brand new tires and my bike is shaft driven so
hopefully my previous troubles will not re-appear lol ,hopefully I don't
get hit by a meteor or something ! I would just like a chance to
actually get on the course this time !

Tom S. - getting ready to go meet a friend who is also going to take his
test and go take a few practice runs on the actual course !


Tom, Tom,Tom.........don't you ever learn? Why are you telling all
these stories? You know your bike has other problems that will affect
the test results. The excuses you gave earlier are just that..EXCUSES!
Don't blame someone else for YOUR mistakes.

It appears you don't maintain your cycle very well. Go buy a new one
and get rid of the junk, then take the test. Or, borrow, rent or steal
a smaller bike that is easier to ride.


Hank <~~~knows he'll have electrical problems and flunk the test again.



This morning was the morning Tom was to take his test for a MC
license. I am wondering how it went.

I bet Tom didn't show up, what do you all think?

Hank <~~~always loses bets, so maybe a god thing for Tom



Well , Once again misfortune has raised its ucly head for me , I have not
been feeling well for the past week and was being treated for an ear and
sinus infection and I had a regularly scheduled appt. with the VA Out
Patient Clinic here in Lancaster allready scheduled for Tuesday afternoon
, I really didn't feel up to driving but went ahead and went to it , on
the way there I started having mild chest pains which I figured was due to
the heat (My a/c dont work in my van) and stress .

Once I was there I started feeling light headed and started perspiring
perfusely of which the nurse noticed and asked me about when she called me
back for my turn with the doctor , No sooner did I mention that I was
having chest pains did they call 911 and had me take a nitro and an
aspirin and put me on oxygen , next thing I know I wake up in the
emergency room with a whole bunch of people working on me putting in an IV
and transferring me from the ambulance stretcher to the ER bed !


I guess it was raining this morning so I would not have been able to take
the test anyways , The discharged me at my request at around 4:30 after
running some tests and I still am not sure what happened yesterday because
I slept the whole time I was there . I am scheduled to meet my
cardiologist some time next week for a chemical induced stress test which
I have had a couple of times before and I am not looking forward to going
through it again .

I may have to have another angioplasty and get my pipes cleaned out
because there may be another blockage and I think I will be OK .

But for now I am just weak and tired and really not sure what is wrong so
I plan on taking it easy for a few days and see if I can get my strength
back ..............

Tom S. - Looking forward to his 4th try at getting his MC license !






Tom: I'm gonna stand by my earlier statement. TAKE THE HINT!
Hope your health works out. Seriously, think twice about getting on a bike
until you got it all figgered out.
