I did a bit of Christmas shopping...I bought a rear motorcycle tire for someone for Christmas....I also bought the front to give him for his birthday....

Then I spent far too long getting winter tires installed on my car.

I told the guy the size....215-70-16 .... he said let's go look at the car....he said the size was 215-70-15....I said no they are 16....he said no they are 15...I said I have the book in the car....he said he didn't need it...he said it says on the tire 15....I said I am sure they are 16...he insisted 15...so I lifted my hands skyward and said...ok....

So...1-1/2 hours later I went back....he was looking very sheepish.... he said there is a little problem....your wheels are 16 inch..I said..I told you they were 16...... :roll:

He was very apologetic...so he should have been...

So...they had to go ten blocks to their warehouse to go get a different tire to fit my vehicle....

So...almost 4 hours later I got to go home....

Do you think if I had been a guy he would have questioned what I told him?

Today no it wouldn't, I'm sad to say.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

I got cable and high speed internet. The internet is now a wired connection. I was using a cellular stick before....it kept dropping signals....so I finally got fed up enough to call the cable company.

Today I gave my bike a good wash and just polished it, I’m thinking of spending the whole day doing something to my bike.
