Published for Dverse--Tuesdays at 3--or after!
Why (when putting along about 80 mph somewhere on I-95 between there and there, does my Suzuki engine decide it's 'siesta' time?
Is it in real fact
a silver-painted
Briggs and Stratt?--WHY does it stop running?
NOW!
Flex, my scooter, quit...
right behind and in front of
two behemoths. WHY?
I'LL TELL YOU WHY!
Flex ran out of gas
I knew Flex could 'do' zero-to-sixty in four seconds (true!)
NOW I know he can do 'eighty-to-zero' in TWO seconds
(also true!)
So also can behemoths. THANK GOD! AND THAT'S THE TRUTH
NOTE: It was a lonnngg walk in 'noonday sun'over hill-and-dale (Mommie, what's a 'dale'???)
from I-95 to the nearest farmhouse--grin!
(NOT a "Farmer's Daughter" tale.) LOL!
These days I'm riding the 'Blue Highways'...
away from the super-roads.
Bike is extra-strained,
since I must have gained
10 lbs in these 10 days!!!--grin!
But LIFE IS GOOD! GOD IS GOOD!
LOVE and PEACE, Peeps!
Steve E (aka steveroni)
Psssst! A SECRET!
For you Peeps ONLY:
I just now rode into Brian's home town.
(He lives either "there" or "there"!)
He does not know I'm here.
Wanted to get this posted on Dverse Pub.
"First Things First"
favorite slogan-a-roni
NOW I'll call Brian...
pretend (huff-puff)
that I just drove up this instant!
--grin!
I'm sure the bike can withstand the strain and between there and there Brian will become aware.
ReplyDeleteStrains withstood all around.
DeleteThanks, Pat
haha its pretty interesting sitting across the table from you as i read this...i guess actually you are getting coffee as i write this...very cool to meet you though brother...look forward to the next couple days....holy smokes...what an adventure you have been on too...
ReplyDeleteImagine this! I travel 1000 miles on a scooter to have coffee at STARBUCKS with Brian...and what do we do?
DeleteBLOG, of course, of course!
haha...so cool...have a great evening steve and bri.. smiles
ReplyDeleteYup. Cool...and GREAT, we are at top of a mountain at a ski resort...
Deleteblogging. It was the only place we could find WiFi--griN!
Enjoy your visit and give Brian a hug :)
ReplyDeleteA hug for Brian--he's a BIG guy, Babe! Needs two hugs just to get around him.
DeleteIt is DONE! (Whew)
Chuckles! The bike is one thing but I like humor when I see one. Nicely done Steve!
ReplyDeleteHank
Sometimes a little humor transforms crap into chocolate??? YEAH!
DeleteI'll remember that quote "Humor transforms crap into chocolate?". Keep these blogs a comin' ! Stay safe. Don't forget to buy gas!
DeleteSounds like an adventure ~ Have a good time with Brian, Steve ~ All the best ~
ReplyDeleteEach moment is being savored...I can assure you of that!
ReplyDeleteTHANKS, Grace!
Well I don't know how time passes the way it does- I swear I asked you to at least have a coffee toast w/ Brian on my behalf- it must have got lost somewhere!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are having a great trip!
Absolutely NOTHING is irretrievably lost--ever! Sometimes that not so good? Bri (Notice how name went from "Brian" to "Bri" after one day--grin!)...he and I right now sitting in Star$ coffee-ing, blogging, and chatting. GOOD times. You are being talked about Right nowwww--GO!
DeleteWe toasting NOW!
Well thanks for the toast glad you are having fun!
Delete:) Glad you're safe again... gas installed and rest stop found :)
ReplyDeleteHope YOU home and safe now. We sitting in Star$ right now,
Deletedoing you-know-what!
I noticed the importance of the fact that Flex ran out of gas by the size of font you chose to use. :) I asked Brian to give you a hug. Did he? I guess he has too many comments to remember that one little request. I think it's neat that you're out living life and meeting peeps. Be safe and watch that gas gauge!
ReplyDeleteMag...he DID! I been not SO hugged in many a moon...have to come back hear NEXT year. This Brian is really ALL which I had envisioned, expected--and much more!
DeletePEACE!!! And THANKS for the hug. Peeps (like me?) forget how important they really are....
Two fun bloggers are together.
ReplyDeleteYa got that right, girl. I do not meet many men who I truly like--
Deletethis is one of those
And his wife...lovely!
So full of joy am I tonight--hope for you also to be so....
Leaving sometime tomorrow, maybe ride at night for a change....
CU!
No, not a Briggs and Stratton for sure.... That would never quit on you, just take a little longer to get there! I hope that 2 second stop was a safe one...... Kudos!
ReplyDeleteYup! Everyone stopped, and I got to push over to side of road...God is GooD. Don't know WHY he is keeping ME alive, but I have faith that HE knows--grin!!!
DeleteRide on, Brother. Brian posted you're coming over. Would LOVE to be a waitress at that buffet of ideas! Keep on your scooter! Had one in Bermuda and it was heaven. Closer to the ground, nearer to God.
ReplyDeletePeace, Amy

sounds like a trying afternoon that you relate with such wit and good humor... that's quite a gift, man. :) you & brian enjoy your manly blogging times and if you should happen to get bored, well, y'all know there's more poets just up the road a spell... :)
ReplyDeleteI'm finding poets just EVERYWHERE!
DeleteThanks for your nice comment
PEACE!
Steve what a delight! This was such fun. It exposed much of your personality which I just loved. People used to call me "Riceroni" as in my maiden name was Rice.
ReplyDeleteDear Rice-a-roni,
DeleteSo happy to be a delivery-man for
"delight and fun". I LIKE!
Hello Steve!!! such a long time without reading you!! glad you still here :-D kisses dudeeeee and biiiiig hugs!! =)
ReplyDeleteRight away I went to read your "Distance" post. You struck within me a chord which sounds began earlier today.
