Most single-seat bikes have the rider's weight divided between the two wheels. On my bike you sit upright, so much more of your weight is on the back wheels. The steering did feel weird and sensitive when I bought it, but I got used to it.
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm so sorry, although I know you lost your brother two months ago... it's always sudden.
Jesse said exactly what I wanted to. Amyth, I'm so sorry.

Well, it only took less than a month after my grandmother's death for certain family members to say shitty litigious things via Facebook. Nice.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Gaddafi gave another speech today. This one was long, rambling, and incoherent. One quote: "It's impossible for the youth to follow anyone else. If not Gaddafi, who else would they follow? Somebody with a beard?"

This one was long, rambling, and incoherent
Is there any other kind of Gaddafi speech?

not your mom's socks.
Friedman posted that Gaddafi is now trying to bore his people to death.
Eta. Even typing that made me uncomfortable.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
Gaddafi turning into a giant snake would, sadly, be less scary than what he's actually doing.
There is a sleeping puppy next to me, though. That helps a little.
