FIVE CANNIBALS– Five cannibals get hired at the local manufacturing plant. During thewelcoming orientation, the HR Manager says, “You’re all part of ourteam now. You can earn good money here. You will have good benefits, andyoucan go to the vending machines for something to eat, so please don’t botherany of the other employees.” The cannibals promised.

Four weeks later the HR Manager calls them in to the office and says,”You’re all working very hard, and we’re very satisfied with all of you.However, one of our janitors has disappeared. Do any of you know whathappened to him?” The cannibals all shake their heads no.

After the HR Manager has left, the leader of the cannibals says totheothers, “Which one of you idiots ate the janitor?” A hand raiseshesitantly, to which the leader of the cannibals replies, “You fool!!

Forfour weeks, we’ve been eating Managers and Administrators and no one noticedanything, and YOU had to go and eat the janitor!”

THE DOUR DAILY–Al-Qaeda is once again calling for the destruction of America. I got news for them: They can’t ruin the American way of life only Wall Street can do that!

Speaking of stocks, mine split today. You know what that means, a stock split? It means my stocks just split! They are gone!

Stocks are bad, corporations are corrupt and people are losing jobs. Do you think God might be a little upset about that pledge thing? Hey, you’re all on your own now!

On the front of USA Today they had a color graph of the states with the highest reported cases of sunburn. You know which state had the highest rate? Wisconsin. Now, I don’t know if they get more sunburns in Wisconsin, but apparently they have nothing better to do than sit around and report they have sunburns!

The United States has a new weapon. It destroys people but leaves buildings still standing it’s called the stock market!

Do you know the difference between Las Vegas and Wall Street? In Vegas after you lose your money you still get free drinks.

Congress voted the other day 97 to 0 for tougher laws on corporations. So now when a corporation buys a senator, they need a receipt.

The Republicans might go to Florida for the convention in the 2004 election. Returning to the scene of the crime.

MISSING FATBOBS– These are the Tanks I sold about 15 years ago. I had them on my bike years ago. A friend painted them.I walked in a bike shop up here and they were in a display case.

I said “Those are my Fucking tanks” and everyone took a stepbackwards, they thought they were stolen and I was there to kick some ass.

NEWS FROM WHITEHORSE PRESS–What’s been hot this summer you ask? Everything, everyday! But, for summerriding, it’s what’s hot that’s cool that counts. And that’s the AirhawkSeat Cushion with the revolutionary Dry Flotation technology that eliminatespainful pressure points and promotes consistent blood flow for a longer,cooler, more comfortable ride.http://www.whitehorsepress.com/email.asp?cn=50245&en=en0208&id=cvra

No more numbness you ask? No more aching butt muscles? That’s right. Thecushion’s adjustable air inflation and multiple cells provide a custom fitto your personal contour, making the last mile feel like the first. Smallinterconnected air cells move pressure away from “hot spots” and work asmini shock absorbers, reducing vibration. An open mesh side panel allowsair to circulate, creating extra ventilation to reduce heat build-up andprevent “hot seat.”

Popular motojournalist David Hough discovered the pleasure of an Airhawk onhis last cross-country trip, 4,000 miles into a 6,400 miler: “I was inserious butt pain, and in drastic need of something to ease it. The oldsheepskin wasn’t working any more. So, in desperation, I plotted a newcourse to an outlet I knew that carried Airhawks, and slapped one on mysaddle. The relief was immediate, and allowed me to knock off the 2,400miles home in relative comfort, without having to stand on the pegs forthree days.”

CANTINA TESTIMONIAL AND ROAD GLIDE ADVICE–Been checking out your site since you started but was a little leary of tha Cantina after joining the Easyriders Roadhouse thing a long time ago. Lasted a month but they kept billing me anyway. You’ve been up for a while and it’s a lot cheaper, so I guess I will have to give up a piece of rasin pie for the month.

ANYWAY, I have a 2000 SE Road Glide and can attest to the afffect that tire pressure is a big issue as well as the type of tire you are running. The Dunlops keeps her stable like a caddy, but if you go with Avon Venom X’s it starts thinking it’s a freakin crotch rocket in the corners. I would start with the tire pressure, and even the air in the shocks seem to make some difference especially on the not-so-smooth roads we have in the flatlands with the grooves for truck tires.

BIKERNET ON CORPORATE MANAGEMENT–A Japanese company and an American company decided to have a canoe race.Both teams practiced hard and long to reach their peak performance beforethe race. On the big day the Japanese won by a mile. Afterward, the Americanteam became very discouraged and morally depressed. The American managementdecided the reason for the crushing defeat had to be found. A “ManagementTeam” made up of senior management was formed to investigate and recommendwhat appropriate action should be taken. Their conclusion was the Japanesehad 8 people rowing and 1 person steering, while the American team had 8persons steering and one person rowing.

So American management hired a consulting company and paid them anincredible amount of money. They advised that too many people were steeringthe boat, while not enough people were rowing. To prevent losing to theJapanese again next year, the rowing team’s management structure was totallyreorganized to 4 steering supervisors, 3 area steering superintendents and 1assistant superintendent steering manager. They also implemented a newperformance system that would give the 1 person rowing the boat greaterincentive to work harder. It was called the “Rowing Team Quality FirstProgram,” with meetings, dinners and free pens for the rower. “We must givethe rower the empowerment and enrichments through this quality program.”.

The next year the Japanese won by two miles. Humiliated, the Americanmanagement laid off the rower for poor performance, halted development of anew canoe, sold the paddles, and canceled all capital investments for newequipment.

Then they distributed the money they saved as bonuses to the seniorexecutives.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK–“A study in the Washington Post says that women have better verbal skills than men. I just want to say to the authors of that study: Huh?” – Conan O’Brien

BIKERNET ADVICE ON DEALING WITH POLICE–Don’t say the following: You’re not gonna check the trunk, are you?

AND THE DARWIN AWARD GOES TO– A 27-year-old French woman lost control of her car on a highway nearMarseilles and crashed into a tree, seriously injuring her passenger andkilling herself. As a commonplace road accident, this would not havequalified for a Darwin nomination, were it not for the fact that thedriver’s attention had been distracted by her Tamagotchi key ring, which hadstarted urgently beeping for food as she drove along. In an attempt to pressthe correct buttons to save the Tamagotchi’s life, the woman lost her own.
