I don't think she'd squawk if I was collecting Les Paul guitars, or rare stamps.

... Or shoes!

Damn it, they only have two feet or am I missing something?
i.e. Invisible third alien foot or something...

Has the dealer called you back yet? Funny how I got my third KZ1100. I was surfing for parts on ebay and commented to the old lady, "this sure is a pretty parts bike and the opening bid is 400 bucks". She takes a look and replies, "are you going to put a bid in on it?". She did not have to tell me twice. I had to go get it, an 8 hour drive to NE from TX. Took me 30 minutes to get it running......What town is this bike in BTW....chris3

No call yet. I'll be back there in three weeks to finish moving her is and might have a chance to check in again. What's up Copper? Trying to horn in on my find? You already have 3 big bikes!

I've wondered this very thing.

Mine seems indifferent to giving up her shoes and will often pack up bags full of them to list free on craigslist although..........somehow there always seem to be the same number of shoes no matter how many she gives away. Can't really figure that one out.

It is very important to take your time choosing a spouse. Young men; do not ask "Do I like her?" or "Does she like me?" or "Is she pretty?".

These things always work themselves out shortly so that even if you do like her or think she's pretty you will soon be relieved of this misconception.

There are only three things you need to know, and don't settle for anything less.

Starting with most important:

1. Does she like motorcycles? (duh)

2. How many shoes does she have? (1 pair of riding boots)

3. Is she already related? (you should try for no closer than cousins):P

Is it better that she have an interest, or know how to ride herself?

I might say two pairs. I have two pairs of shoes, myself. One is a pair of black leather steel toe boots that I wear on a daily basis. The second is an identical pair as a backup for when the first pair turns to dust or is thrown away by your soon to be ex (Good riddance. The ex, not the boots, I loved those boots)

I must say my second pair is on order. I'm hoping they come in before my current pair is too far gone to resole. BTW: Drew's boots in Klamath Falls, OR. just a shameless plug. Best boots I've ever had. Period.

After almost ten years, the evidence is clear...some sort of heal/toe shifter may be in order to save the next pair. ;)
