Only heard of Pandora so I guess I'll pick that even though I've never used it. I use Winamp radio myself.

Which would you rather?

A. Ride a bicycle to work

B. Walk to work

Ugh. Those both are sub par. Lol. I don't own a bike since I ran my last one over when my buddy leaned it up behind my truck, but riding was better then walking. So bike.

Sheppards pie

Or

Mac and cheese.

Mac and cheese, provided it isn't boxed. Otherwise, shepherd's pie.

Now, a question I'm pondering, so I'd really like to hear reasoning behind the answer:

Small twin?

Or big single?

Small twin. The reason (for me and please anyone else reading this chime in) is because I find the twin has more top end and it is more smooth running* (because it can be counterbalanced easier). Now I would choose a small v-Twin over a small parallel twin (I have owned more parallel twins) just because I find the V configuration has more low end torque. If you are going for complete and utter simplicity of maintenance and design the single can't be beat though. Hope that helps a little

A. Tacos

or

B. Hamburgers

* Unless we are talking about a boxer twin like a BMW, then that's the smoothest twin you configuration you can have.

Thanks for the reply, Mike. I'll take that into consideration when making that first bike purchase.

When it comes to the matter of tacos or hamburgers, that can vary depending on my mood. But since I could really go for an In-N-Out Double-Double (Animal-Style, no lettuce) right now, hamburgers it is!

And now, a question geared primarily toward those who do their own bike maintenance:

Snap-On?

or Matco?

Don't know Matco, but I despise the price of Snap-on, so atco it is, (I use mainly Craftsman.

Craftsman sucks now, junk made in China; ok if you have old Craftsman. Certain tools you need to go with Snap On however, like allen head sockets; and I love the Snap On scredriver that you can use a wrench on.

No question scorching hot sunny days, hate humidity in the summer.

If you could be a master of a musical instrument, would you prefer...

piano?

or

guitar?

Guitar, definitely. They're much more compact, and you don't need a specialist to tune them.

Home Depot?

Or Lowe's?

Lowe's. Our local Home Depot engaged in some real shady advertising a couple years back, concerning a local 'mom and pop' Christmas Tree seller. We've boycotted them ever since.
