Dennis Andress Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 I need that plate holder... There's a story to go with it. Several years ago Laney's K12RS started smoking on startup. Since the smoking started shortly after a major service the dealer was not very responsive . After weeks of taking the bike in and being told they couldn't duplicate it, the service manager told Laney: "It wouldn't smoke if you didn't ride it like a girl." Now, Laney is not slow, and what he said didn't go over well. The license plate frame is there to remind them how much the whole deal wound up costing... Link to comment

TEWKS Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Could see it just fine! Now, if this is what's called "serving your country" sign me up please! Nice! Pat Link to comment
SteveHebert Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 What an ugly landscape to ride in! If I were you, I would ask for a re-assignment. Afghanistan is beautiful this time of year! Link to comment
ArmyGuy Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Thanks guys. I actually volunteered to PCS to a unit going to Afghanistan before I came here. My branch manager decided that I was needed here more. I'm not complaining. Not one single bit. Link to comment

Joe Frickin' Friday Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 From the Museum of Flight in Seattle, here's the toilet used on the space shuttle: The handles, footrests, and vacuum apparatus give you a new appreciation for gravity. Moving from "doesn't smell like roses" to "smells like roses," here are a couple of pics from last spring's visit to the University of Michigan Peony Garden, worth a visit if you're in the area at the right time: Link to comment

Bud Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I just finished installing $1K worth of garage doors today. What could I have bought for the bike if I didn't have to waste it on two new garage doors? Monday suck. Link to comment
Caddis Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Looks like Gadwalls. Thanks for the duck identification. I didn't know what kind they were. That shot was from a local lake this weekend. Link to comment
waynerd Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 The handles, footrests, and vacuum apparatus give you a new appreciation for gravity. NASA's finest. I think I understand the purpose of all the features, except for the "gear shift". Link to comment
greiffster Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 That's some good shootin'. Duck's in flight are tough to capture that well. You should forward that on to DU Magazine, they might like it. Link to comment
Joe Frickin' Friday Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 NASA's finest. I think I understand the purpose of all the features, except for the "gear shift". It's actually the world's most complicated toilet. Here's NASA's seven-minute TMI explanation: The video explains a whole lot about how the toilet worked, more than was apparent in my photo. Fun fact: with such a small hole, alignment when sitting on this toilet was critical. At the astronaut training facility, they had an unplumbed version of the toilet with a camera pointing straight up through the hole; astronauts could sit on this toilet and watch a monitor to practice achieving correct alignment.

waynerd Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Complicated indeed. I did notice the mini orifice. Now, whenever I hear about astronaut training, my mind will instantly think of "target practice" (kinda reminds me of when I first took my kids backpacking). And improper "docking" to the urinal funnel looks like that could be painful (mentioned in the video), though I imagine vacuum assist might be appreciated for tougher "movements". Got a kick out of this one. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment

Dennis Andress Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 It's a travesty, but we don't get out and ride like we once did. My camera sits forgotten on a shelve. It's going to be a little while before we can fix that. But, it doesn't matter, everyone can post a picture here and contribute to a happier Monday!
