I’ve added a new feature to Moto Madness that you cell phone browser people will be sure to love. I’ve added a mobile version of my RSS feed! Never again will you have to be without my rants about unsafe riders, squids, lack of photos, or even my off topic posts about random things like how bad I want a tankless water heater.
Now you can take all my babbling and rambling with you no matter where your 2wheels (or 4 for those non riders) may take you!
How cool is that?
I think it’s super awesome, and my free feed is being brought to you by FeedM8 since I currently haven’t taken the time to learn how to setup a mobile version of my blogs. Stop by FeedM8 for your own mobile feed if you’re ready to go mobile. Did I mention you can earn money from your mobile feed as well?

I can thank my best friend Allison for pointing me in the direction of this super awesome shirt.

I’ll be submitting an order for it tomorrow as soon as I get paid. Where did she find it? The shirt is one of three currently being offer by Tear Off Tees. What I love the most is that these shirts are designed by a female motorcycle rider who has been riding on the street since the age of 16. At 21 she has now taken her skills to the track, and is using the profits from Tear Off Tees towards the chance at a career in professional racing.

Here lately I’ve been thinking a lot about identity theft. Just a couple months back someone broke into my Paypal account and made an extremely large purchase on Ebay. Luckily Paypal had that resolved within a couple days. They actually reversed the charges in the early AM hours of a Saturday. I was quite impressed.
Then we’ve got this business today of someone using my name, address, and phone number for their dentist’s appointment. No they didn’t use critical information like my social security number, but it’s still scary all the same. In my eyes it’s still identity theft because that person could have easily filled out a credit card application with my information on it. I’ve seen that happen before.
Hubby’s aunt works at the university, and they did a huge study on getting credit cards with a small amount of info. All that person had to do was stop by the mailbox at the address they used and beat the homeowner to the credit card when it arrived. It’s really scary.
A friend of hours was shocked when he went to purchase a motorcycle a couple years ago. A car had been financed in his name only a month earlier.
Did you know that between January 1st and December 31, 2006 36% of the complaints made to the Federal Trade Commission were for identity theft? It shows what kind of world we’re living in now when people are so eager to pretend to be someone else for money. Not only is it illegal and greedy, but it’s downright disgusting.
It really makes me wonder if I need to look into a service like posted in Off Topic |

Hubby is driving me crazy right now. With the cold and the rain we’ve been stuck indoor unable to ride. The next best thing is to play Tourist Trophy on the PS2 for a couple hours. First of all, he’s a total game hog. Secondly he really can’t stand losing to anyone. Hubby, my cousin, and myself have been taking turns racing a lap at a time to try to beat each other’s lap times.
I finally gave up trying to play because we’re racing a lap that’s roughly 7 minutes. Every time hubby wrecks no matter where he is he restarts his race. Not quite fair when we’re wrecking, and he won’t let us restart. Then hubby got so mad that he was wrecking that he started punching things. I just walked out. I can’t exactly take the game away from him like I could my child, but I’m definitely super pissed. He’s such a sore loser, and this is why I hardly ever agree to even attempt to play a game with him.
I’m going to lock myself in my office, and hours from now when he comes crying because he still can’t beat the 6 minute lap I put down, so he gave up and wants to watch a movie or spend time with me, I’m going to tell him to shove it!
