Title: Finally it had to happen
Post by: CDNRatMan on May 12, 2018, 15:37:45 PM
 :( Today was the first time that I had to seperate the girls for the next few days. I moved Red to her own home and will Keep Raven inside for at least one more week to get the small things tidied up. Pretty tired today from moving the bike, think I am just getting to old to be doing it alone about now........might need to renovate the front entry to the home so the bikes go in and out easier......

 8) Well my Italian Friend, if I was flush with your wealth of funds I might just do that, but I am living on a disability pension and so I am comfortable, but to buy something like that is not in the books of my bills.......I might find one all in parts or in boxes and then perhaps......

You're wrong about my funds...
I'm not the one who owns 2 (beautiful) bikes!  ;)
And it's 19 years now since I own the same (old) Drifter...

 :o  Marco I had to sell my soul to the devil to be able to afford that second bike, then the transformation cost my my entire retirement fund. I will be eating beans and rice the rest of my life. I cannot even afford a good dinner of sgetti.........
  Now look at some of our other members and the  number of bikes some of them own.......

Well don't look at me, I got my '06 drifter for under 3K and my other bike is now 20 years old with 70k on it. My CFO (aka wife) has made it clear that I will not purchase anything that resembles a new motorcycle. :'(

 8) Well I have you beat or not sure what I have you I have a pair of 99's.....lol........CFO, I don't have one of them.....and at this point I am not sure I would buy a new bike unless I won a lottery.......

You lucky guys!
My CFO keeps on tellin' me that I shouldn't even own one bike, because I'm spendin' too much money for it...  :-\
BTW, what does "CFO" exactly mean? Never heard of that acronym...  :o

"CFO"= Chief Financial Officer...in charge of all $$$ outflow. Also a Chief Financial Officer, a wife with responsibility for the financial affairs of a relationship/marriage.

I see...
Well, that's definitely the exact way to indicate the role of a wife!
As for mine, I would define her a "OCFO" wich is for "OCCULT Chief Financial Officer": that's because she just lets me believe that I am the CFO of our marriage...  :o

Don't forget the Peroni! I grew up near a large Italian community and they liked their Peroni (wine first, beer second).

Me, I like Peroni "Baffo d'oro" bier!  ;)
If you ever should find it, taste it: it's really good.
BTW: I've never heard of a Peroni wine! Here in Italy the maker is well known for its beer only...  :o

I'm thinking he's referring to drinking Peroni beer after the wine... :o
