Many, many, many years ago when I lived in Romeoville, IL, I rode one of my HOGs to a concert, had no intentions of drinking, but ran into the Killians Red stand so many times that I got trashed. I was so trashed that after I left the concert, I pulled the cops directing traffic over. That was kind of a dumb thing to do. I quit drinking after that. They didn't arrest me, and rightfully, they should have shot me. Instead, they escorted me to the interstate and advised me to never ever come back to their town. I wasn't supposed to stay for the whole concert, just long enough to hopefully hear Neil Young sing Powderfinger, which he didn't anyway, and then I was supposed to ride into Chicago to take in a Blackhawks playoff game. Well, as I said, I was trashed on my HOG, the cops escorted me to the interstate, let me go and told me to never come back, so off I rode. The dash bulb went out on my speedo so I couldn't tell how fast I was going, if I could have anyway. I got behind a car that I figured was doing the speed limit, and followed it to keep out of trouble, but missed getting off of my interstate onto the interstate that would have taken me to the Hawks game, and I followed that car almost to Iowa before I looked up at a sign and realized that I was almost to Iowa, nowhere near the Chicago Stadium. I got home about 1 in the morning, and I don't drink anymore. OK, in the past decade or two, I have had a couple of Killian Reds, Sam Adams Boston Lagers, or Leinenkugals Reds, but probably no more than a six pack in total, and not on a motor scooter or behind a wheel.

In all honesty, if and when you pull the cops over like I did, they should be allowed to shoot you on the spot.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th ... [Read Article]
