Modern Vespa

Having a beer after the Resurgene Rally Ride yesterday I was talking to someone (name withheld to protect the guilty) asking about my MP3. When he found out I was from Milledgeville he said "There is another MP3 in Milledgeville." I responded I had not heard of one and he said "Yeah, he posts on MV. His handle is Fuzzy."

Now if I can just track down this Fuzzy guy I will have someone local to ride with.

At least you will have some interesting discussions with that guy, he will never disagree with you

You know your in "big trouble", when your "shadow passes you"!

Yeah, I'm surprised the guy didn't say to you that he saw "Fuzzy" yesterday on his way out of town packed up for camping .

I'm really surprised I didn't spot you at the rally, I was there most of the day. I guess I shoulda called/emailed.

Luthorhuss, I don't believe you were there and didn't show up at Krispy Kreme.

As to someone thinking I was on the way camping they probably knew the situation at my favorite campground, 2 wheels only. Some pictures from there today:

You need to get together with that Fuzzy fellow - he is awfully nice
If it rains anymore up here we are going to need an ark!

You didn't see Luthorhuss because he was in Milledgeville riding around as Fuzzy. Something about that KITT changing shapes.

Nah...but I'd definitely been there had I known there would be Krispy Kremes!!

Now I know why you have the 250 and the 400 - so Fuzzy can go riding with you!

Whoa that is some high water. Hope that Fuzzy guy can swim or you will never get to ride with him.

nice one Jerry

The ride included Northside Drive through a wealthy area of Atlanta. On the news Monday (48 hours later) I saw a picture of a pickup truck with the roof barely showing out of the water on Northside Drive. That would have just about covered my helmet too with me in it.

Chattahoochee river was 5' above the bridge on I-285 and 5' higher than the record set 90 years ago. The water in a creek that flooded I-20 broke the record by 10'. Down here we only had 11" of rain. No flooding here, but loggers couldn't get in the woods shutting the sawmill down for 3 days with no wood to run.

A lot of people in the Atlanta area are hurting and most were not in a defined flood plain and did not have flood insurance.

The rules for flood insurance are so stupid. I live in an area that should never flood, but I wanted to buy flood insurance just in case. I was not allowed to, WTF? It's seems like they would gladly take my money as they should never have to pay out. But some rule says you have to be in a 100 year flood plan to get it. So they will only insure those they know will get flooded again.
It's like saying they will only insure your car if you have had a wreck with in the last 10 years

Am I the only one that this makes no sense too.

Yeah makes no sense to me either, but lots of insurance rules don't. Like why can't I purchase health insurance from a utah company if i live in florida. Anyway a discussion for a different forum.

Hope things get back to normal soon for N. GA.
