Now the dust has settled.......

I don't know if any of you saw the OCC vs PJD vs Jesse James bike build off last week...but I did, and after sitting through both shows, the build up and the winner show....I thought to myself, I need to share some thoughts....

I'm still at a loss as to what Senior was smoking when someone convinced him that building a flame throwing, electric powered glorified snowmobile would be a good idea.....






Then there's PJD's 'WWII Veteran Tribute' themed bike....going for the board track look...with the ridiculous 30 inch rims...exhaust pipes coming out of the fake tank with smoke generator's...and the copper & rivets.....




And then there's Jesse's machine, other than the wheels, tires & motor, the bike was FABRICATED BY JESSE & TEAM............unlike the other two....Yes, I'm a JJ fan, I like his work, he's had his issues in the past, but he's back where he started....building bikes...that you can ride...a lot...






Now people have said that Jesse built the same old bike he's always built, Jr claims he built it for the challenge of making something new & exciting, Sr, as I said earlier, what was he on????

We all know the 'tv show' results...but I know in my heart who the winner was....

Its that time of year.....

....when people go totally over the top with buying way too many gifts for children, family & friends...inevitably, 2/3 of the stuff gets used once or twice & then put away, stuffed in a corner or under the bed and forgotten.....to become, in a year or two, Craigslist or Yard Sale fodder.

So...here's an idea...this year, buy one less gift, and with the money, donate a toy to a local Toy Drive, most towns & cities have them, San Jose Firefighters collect toys at all Fire Houses, the US Marines do the annual "Toys for Tots" event this coming weekend at Christmas in the Park in downtown.

So go on...make a difference...donate a toy...or two...it doesn't have to be extravagant, a few Hot Wheels cars can be more than enough.
