Paperback Classic


Hypodermic needles filled with tranquilizing drugs? Drowsy, naked women? A big-eared, sunburned freak peering longingly into a beaker filled with pre-menopausal urine? Undocumented Aliens?

Sounds like an Indiana trailer park on any given Saturday night.

Ugliest Production Motorcycle



I like ugly bikes. I love rat bikes, dirty rusty old shovels, resurrected garage-found CB 750's and even Moto Guzzis. My DL650 V-Strom is considered by many to be the ugliest, and for good reason. While shopping for it in '08, I discussed the V-Strom with the sales goon. I mentioned that I found it less than attractive. He kept saying things like, "Well sir, it's a purpose-built bike." and "You know, form over function." When I finally laid down the cash and signed all the papers, I asked him to give me his honest assessment of the bike's appearance. He finally admitted, "Yeah, it's pretty damn ugly."





Not to be completely outdone, Harley stuck their foot in the ugly bike gene pool with the abomination they call the Rocker. What the hell were they thinking?
The old original Super-Glide with its hideous boat-tail seat and red white and blue paint job was pretty bad too back in the day.

 
In my opinion the ugly prize goes to the Victory Vision. Victory was being optimistic in calling this thing a "Vision." Nightmare, maybe, hallucination possibly, but visions like this should be reserved for bad acid trips and horror movies. This atrocious spaceship looks like a designer, fired from NASA for failing the drug test, took an oversized '58 Cadillac tail fin and stuck an antiseptic V-twin engine in it, then wrapped it in some leftover Polaris snowmobile plastic.


The V-Strom, no beauty to be sure, is ugly due to its lack of cosmetics. In trying to differentiate themselves from Harley, the designers of the Vision and their overuse of cosmetics created a horrific, space-age nightmare.

Just my opinion, and as we all know opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, and most of them stink.....
.....or have large, orange vuvuzelas hanging out of them.

Spring Cleaning

April is a swell time to open the windows, move the furniture and clean those pesky skulls out from underneath the crawlspace.

Weird Stuff


I love weird stuff, it's makes life somewhat interesting.

I think this is actual advertising for some kind of greasy hair care product. I wish I wasn't bald so I could lovingly apply this product, organic egg whites and fabric softener to my hair.
