BIKERNET HISTORY LESSON–Have you ever wondered where and how yodeling began? Many years ago a biker was traveling through the mountains ofSwitzerland.
Nightfall was rapidly approaching and he had nowhere to sleep. Hewent up to a farmhouse and asked the farmer if he could spend the night.
The farmer told him that he could sleep in the barn.
As the story goes, the farmer’s daughter asked her father, “Who isthat biker going into the barn?”
“That fellow traveling through,” said the farmer. “needs a place tostay for the night, so, I told him he could sleep in the barn.”
The daughter said, “Perhaps he is hungry..” So she prepared him aplate of food for him and then took it out to the barn.
About an hour later, the daughter returned. Her clothing disheveledand straw in her hair. Straight up to bed she went.
The farmer’s wife was very observant. She then suggested that perhaps the man was thirsty. So she fetched a bottle of wine, took it out to the barn, and she too did not return for an hour. Her clothing was askew, her blouse buttoned incorrectly. She also headed straight to bed.
The next morning at sunrise the biker in the barn got up and continuedon his journey, waving to the farmer as he left.
When the daughter awoke and learned that the visitor was gone, shebroke into tears. “How could he leave without even saying goodbye,” shecried. “We made such passionate love last night!”
“What?” shouted the father as he angrily ran out of the house looking for the biker who by now was halfway up the mountain.
The farmer screamed up at him, “I’m going to get you! You had sex with my daughter!”
The biker looked back down from the mountainside, cupped his hand nextto his mouth, and yelled out…..

FRIENDS–A man and his dog were walking along a road. The man was enjoying the scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead. He remembered dying, and that the dog walking beside him had been dead for years. He wondered where the road was leading them.
After a while, they came to a high, white stone wall along one side of the road. It looked like fine marble. At the top of a long hill, it was broken by a tall arch that glowed in the sunlight. When he was standing before it he saw a magnificent gate in the arch that looked like Mother of Pearl, and the street that led to the gate looked like pure gold.
He and the dog walked toward the gate, and as he got closer, he saw a man at a desk to one side. When he was close enough, he called out, “Excuse me, where are we?”
“This is Heaven, sir,” the man answered.
“Wow! Would you happen to have some water?” the man asked.
“Of course, sir.. Come right in, and I’ll have some ice water brought right up.” The man gestured, and the gate began to open.
“Can my friend,” gesturing toward his dog, “come in, too?” the traveler asked.
“I’m sorry, sir, but we don’t accept pets.”
The man thought a moment and then turned back toward the road and continued the way he had been going with his dog.
After another long walk, and at the top of another long hill, he came to a dirt road which led through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed. There was no fence.. As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree and reading a book.
“Excuse me!” he called to the reader. “Do you have any water?”
“Yeah, sure, there’s a pump over there, come on in.”
“How about my friend here?” the traveler gestured to the dog.
“There should be a bowl by the pump.” They went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old-fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside it.
The traveler filled the bowl and took a long drink himself, then he gave some to the dog. When they were full, he and the dog walked back toward the man who was standing by the tree. “What do you call this place?” the traveler asked.
“This is Heaven,” he answered.
“Well, that’s confusing,” the traveler said. “The man down the road said that was Heaven, too.”
“Oh, you mean the place with the gold street and pearly gates? Nope. That’s Hell.”
“Doesn’t it make you mad for them to use your name like that?”
“No,we’re just happy that they screen out the folks who would leave their best friends behind.”
Soooo…
Sometimes, we wonder why friends keep forwarding jokes to us without writing a word, maybe this could explain:
When you are very busy, but still want to keep in touch, guess what you do? You forward jokes.
When you have nothing to say, but still want to keep contact, you forward jokes.
When you have something to say, but don’t know what, and don’t know how, you forward jokes.
And to let you know that you are still remembered, you are still important, you are still loved, you are still cared for, guess what you get?
A forwarded joke.
So, next time if you get a joke, don’t think that you’ve been sent just another forwarded joke, but that you’ve been thought of today and your friend on the other end of your computer wanted to send you a smile.

Daytona Beach deal lets dancers in clubs bare all until April 2006–
By Ludmilla Lelis | Sentinel Staff Writer
Posted December 8, 2004
DAYTONA BEACH — Nude dancing may continue in Daytona Beach until April 2006 under a legal settlement that could end the city’s four-year court battle against three adult-entertainment clubs.
City officials had hoped to clean up Daytona Beach’s honky-tonk image by clamping down on adult entertainment, but when a federal judge in July 2001 struck down one of the regulations they used to do it, dancers at the Pink Pony and Molly Brown’s II started baring all.
Though that ordinance has since been revised and upheld, Daytona Beach officials plan to allow nude dancing to continue for the next 16 months so that the clubs will end their litigation. The Daytona Beach City Commission is scheduled to vote on the court settlement tonight.
The settlement includes a third club called Molly Brown’s, a “bikini bar” where dancers wear skimpy attire and are not nude. It is adjacent to the nude club, Molly Brown’s II, and has a separate court case against the city.
Daytona Beach City Commissioner Darlene Yordon, one of the staunchest critics of the clubs, said Tuesday that she probably would support the settlement. “We’re all in agreement that we don’t like the clubs, but at least with this, there’s an end in sight,” Yordon said. “Then we will start enforcing the law.”
Attorney Gary Edinger, who represents the two Molly Brown’s clubs, said the settlement ensures that the clubs can continue operating for two more spring seasons. After April 2006, the nude clubs can revert to being “bikini bars,” which means dancers won’t be able to show much more skin than people walking on the street. Pasties and G-strings won’t cut it.
An attorney for the Pink Pony was not available for comment.
The settlement leaves only one pending lawsuit against Daytona Beach by an adult-entertainment club. That remaining lawsuit, by Lollipop’s Gentlemens Club, is scheduled to go to trial next month.
“We are confident that we will prevail,” said Brett Hartley, an attorney for Lollipop’s, where dancers go topless. About five years ago, city leaders started a campaign to tone down the city’s sleazy elements and build up family-oriented tourism. The police raided several clubs and arrested dancers and club managers, prompting the lawsuits.
In a blow to the city’s anti-nudity campaign, U.S. District Judge John Antoon II in 2001 ruled that a Daytona Beach zoning ordinance was unconstitutional.
After city officials made several changes to repair what the judge found faulty, Antoon ruled in June that the ordinances are now constitutional. The clubs filed an appeal, which is pending in Atlanta, but negotiated the settlement with city officials during a mediation session.
“There’s always a risk when you litigate these cases,” said Deputy City Attorney Marie Hartman. “No matter how strong you think the case is, there is an inherent risk.”
Meanwhile, the city has not been enforcing the anti-nudity rules, which have opened the door for other clubs to offer topless entertainment. The city’s current rules forbid public nudity and require people to cover one-third of their buttocks and one-fourth of a woman’s breasts.
The settlement provides some relief to Molly Brown’s, the bikini bar that doesn’t offer nude entertainment, Edinger said. “The city was being arbitrary with enforcement,” he said. “If the city is not enforcing the ordinance in 2006, that non-enforcement would apply to Molly Brown’s as well.”. “If the city is not enforcing the ordinance in 2006, that non-enforcement would apply to Molly Brown’s as well.”
