Hairbraine, I don't mind silly comments, but make sure they stay polite. We don't need to know about your nutsack ;)


I think I'd buy a motoped if I wanted to really have an apocolypse bike. Way smaller and way lighter than the PCX. :D
Sorry about sharing that after 2 divorces, each one taking all my stuff and part of a testicle just to be mean, that portion of my anatomy....well it hangs out there....

Maddiedog you are dead wrong about the scooter, the pcx is excellent in key areas: top speed-gas mileage-. If you have seen any of the mad max movies...DUH!!!

When I make my run for the border after the nukes, I want to stay well ahead of the ravaging hordes..... not my idea of a good day to be a crossbow bolt mannequin

What if the Canadians stop all refugees coming from the south. I think your scoot needs a camo paint job.

I plan to tie 2-1 gallon jugs with the caps sealed and small holes with a rubber tubes with a connector so that both jugs will drain into the tank at the same time, they will run to the gas cap drilled tight, I will siphon the gas to make sure no air in the one line and that way as the fuel level drops in the tank the jugs will empty. with 3.5 gallons I should make 300 miles between stops, the same as the ford focus. An
apocalyptic collapse will require a mad dash to the Canadian border from northern California, the wife and kids in the loaded ford focus and me on the pcx so I am asking if anyone has a better idea than this

thanks,
hairbraine??

What about the main tanks vent?

Airtight all the way, as the gallon jugs drain into the main tank a sporadic burst of air back through the line, it works great on paper....

Boobies , what a great word...

What if I fight for days, get into Canada and find out Canadian women don't have boobies ..... cold weather, snow, heavy clothes and industrial baby formula have made boobies vestigial appendages.... Canada a boobie-free wasteland..

NO..NO...NO!!!! Endless torment ..better of dead in the blast...

I have never seen Canadian women in my monthly subscription to Wanker magazine.....hmmmm

Unless I can get confirmation from a real Canadian that boobies exist there I need another plan....

What about Oklahoma? Nobody would waste a nuke on that place for sure....do they even have women that don't look like farm animals there?

That might be worse...heffers with massive...no, would not work either. A 300 pounder with massive...would not fit on the back of my pcx...need another plan

I have been thinking of ways to publicly declare I am a bad guy, an outlaw not to be messed with on my pcx...I think a sticker or decal like the nose art on the B-17 I crewed on would fit my needs. "Racy lady", leaning on her swing, shorts..tank top, alien..green hair, fangs...Wow!

At the end of law school, we had on-campus interviews with various companies. One was an oil company.

First interview question was "Well, why do you want to move to Oklahoma?" I was completely stumped.

Too many ex-bikes to list, and, besides, who really cares what we used to own?

I have a brother who lives in Oklahoma, and another brother who lives in Canada. As an answer to both questions, you are close to correct on the Oklahoma women, but not the Canadians. Up there they have a lot of outdoor activities but when it snows too much they definitely have indoor activities, and the women up there are good at those activities as well. :-)
Soooo....no worries about going north. Oklahoma, on the other hand, won't be there long at the rate "fracking" is going on which is causing earthquakes. .....and then there are the poisonous snakes and infected ticks, and tornadoes. Who in his right mind would want to live there???!!!
Currently own:
Red 2013 Honda PCX150
