You do realize that I've been littering it with worse for years?

I'm just happy to be able to post SOMETHING here with Vespa content at all. Since trading in my GTS300 this past spring for that cursedly (is that even a word?) wonderful BMW 1200 boxer, I've been running a serious deficit of Vespa material to converse about.

I'm now concerned that I may soon fall out of the Vespa 'loop' completely, and that would be a shame....ummmmm....wouldn't it?

It would be a shame, so just don't do it. But if you DID, we could just generate an AI version of you.

This thread is a product of my immense boredom while waiting HOURS in my bus while the Rapid City Track & Cross Country high school teams compete in a 5K running event, 300 miles east, at Huron, South Dakota.

It is now 2:39 PM here, and my I can be shaken out of my stupor at 3:45 and start the 300 miles back.

This is what I do as a hobby to offset and humble my gigantic ego from being a world reknown electric guitar designer...and it supplements my social security a bit, always a handy thing.

Unfortunately, perhaps, but NOT AI....

They used to watch movies on the bus trips, but over the past several years, it's become very uncommon due to the phone 'thing'. I don't think they even look out the windows at the passing scenery anymore.
