Because too many people ALWAYS HAVE TO BE RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!!!

The whole Facebook thing is ridiculous to me. I do have a FB account but I have 4 friends on it. I'll post a comment or two when someone puts up a good meme but other than that, I'm hardly ever on FB.
Look around the US these days. Everyhing is a "tweet" or a "Facebook" address. And the research is starting to come out on the effects of "social media" now. And it ain't lookin' good!

I read one article about how even well-rounded families are raising kids that cannot read, spell or socialize at the their appropriate age levels. They have great, loving parents that provide for their kids, they live in nice homes with clean neighborhoods, etc...
They're saying the problem is NOT the kids...but that the PARENTS are now coming home and spending all of their time on Facebook and not interacting with their children!!!

And think of cell phones. Just listen to someone talking on a cell phone while in line at Walmart or a grocery store. Listen to what they're actually talking about. You'd be surprised how something that sounds so mundane and unimportant is made to be like a do or die situation!!! I've eavesdropped on a young kid discussing to his friend, in a very animated way, about what some girl he met at a bar said. He sounded like WWIII would occur because "this girl" didn't want anything to do with him!!! (Hmmm...wonder why?!?!) And this mid-30's lady was yelling into her cell phone about...what color shirt she should wear for her going out that night!!! As if the entire world depended on it!!!

As smart as technology is becoming seems like the population is dumbing down.

I went to a friend's house last night and there were a bunch of us there. We had a great time with good discussions...politics, children, teaching, old stories, etc... And NOT once was a cell phone pulled out or an iPad!!! We all had a fun evening!!!

It's a presidential election year. Once November has been and gone it will all be over. Just sensor the stuff you can't stand, including me, if need be. [emoji106]

Sounds like you might be getting (God forbid) old?

Personally, IMO you should have gotten rid of the FB thing a long, long time ago. Sit down and talk to the wife more and get off the electronic stuff. We as a society don't know how to communicate face to face anymore unless it is to argue about the smallest thing. One of the reasons for so much road rage.

Ok this is something I can talk about.

I don't have a FB account. Never have, don't plan on ever.

Intruder Alert the old one I found around 2005. I took to it right away, I went there every day. I loved it and found new friends.
Some I PM'd every day. Everyday. MY FB before FB.
What you are feeling is why this new board came about I think. On the old one.

I made a hundred plus friends, I have been to maybe 30 members homes, visited them. Some have visited me and stayed the night.
The IA board was a place to have fun, tell stories, poke fun at each other. Plan rally's, the first one, I went to, was over 100 riders there.
It has like a family reunion, meeting guys, you talked to each day.

Sorry but there is a reason, why not as many flocked, to this new place, after the old one crashed.
You have just stated, what drove some good members, from the old board. It just was not the same place.

The people here who have problems with me now, will attack, my statements here, I have a feeling, but my politics does not apply.

Some attack me for not taking politics serious. I don't take anything serious, I like to joke and have fun, and I enjoy life. I have fun.

So 98 that is why your feeling this way, it happened to hundreds, of people we lost, over the years, good people, fun people who
came to a site to enjoy people only to find, some people who, are sometimes miserable, and drain the life out of today.

The old board, had 20 people at midnight, 100 at 5pm, it was fun, it had life, it made me feel good, and talking
to people, I called friends. Some of those people are on this board, good people, fun people, that's why I came over.

So I know how you feel. Sorry

Start riding them Eurometric bikes and they change you. I bet you're thinking about a BMW now ain't chew?

I'm liking this board more than the old IA board - fewer asswipes here. [emoji2]

Seriously ... I think Johnny gave you some excellent advice.

No Sir My Friend your not the only one to just get tired of it
It sucks when it get real

As we get older we also gain in experience some good and some not so good. These experiences make us who we are. We get comfortable and experiences become fewer and farther apart. We all need these experiences the good and the not so good. If we don’t we forget the good and seem to concentrate on the not so good.

I don’t have a face book account I don’t tweet or kick I hate texting. I do enjoy reading post’s made by the members here and other Motorcycle forums. When I post on any forum I first open word type it out, one finger at a time, proofread then copy and paste.

I myself as some know prefer to talk or discuss over the phone.

I suggest and this is only a suggestion: Get on that BAD MOTORSCOOTER and ride.
Ride to the highest peak and just look around. Or just putt around the city. Maybe find a curvy canyon road and lean for a bit. Go get some new experiences Or go to the zoo maybe you’ll see a miracle. Get yourself out of the negativity and Live. Negativity breads negativity. Challenge yourself to new experiences the good and the not so good.

THE TOTAL MOOD OF THE COUNTRY IS DOWN ... POLITICALLY, ECONOMICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, ETC. THE ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO BOMBARD EVERYONE EACH DAY TO KEEP EVERYONE OFF KILTER, SO EVENTUALLY, THEY WOULD GET BURNED OUT. DON'T GIVE IN, LET THE PLAN WORK. ALMOST EVERYONE IS DEPRESSED. PLUS THE SEASONAL EFFECT AT THE END OF SUMMER.

HANG IN THERE.....

BlacktopTravelr · Post by **BlacktopTravelr** » Wed Sep 07, 2016 6:17 am

Oh, oh, oh I see it is the plan of the Dems to get everyone burnt out before election time so they won't care if Hillary wins or if she wins legally. Those people are smarter than I thought.

Keith, this too will pass if given enough time. So keep focused on what really matters, the wife and family those close y and those not close by, and you will make it throught this. [emoji106]
