Wow, that was the lamest attempt at humor in the history of this site.

Re: Copy Cat Japanese

How in the world could you consider it copycatting when

1) Ducati never had a GP bike until last year, while the Japanese have had them for 30 years

2) Most of Ducati's "innovations" actually came from GP bikes and

3) The Japanese have already made GP streetbikes in the past (RZ500, RG500) so if Ducati does the same it would only be copying what the Japanese did in the past?

Re: Buz gets George W. Bush special treatment.

I think it goes well beyond physical attraction. This borders on a combination of stalking and OCD.

Re: You know what they say

"I scored in the 90th percentile on the GRE verbal portion."

So what? I know plenty of college professors who are complete dip****s with no idea of how the world works.

Test scores mean jack ***** in the real world, as most people who live in it know.

Actually, I just recycled the list from a post I made last year in an argument on the relative value of MO vs. MotorcycleDaily.
