Now, most of the blue people take tablets of Phenophaline every day to mute their blue tone. which will explain some of the various pink with shades of blue you will see over time.

Properly dosed, they are pink just like everybody else.

But get them excited or really really MAD and the blue comes out, pills or no pills ......

They are NOT rednecks, they really are "blue under the collar" guys .....

    .... you say you wanna see some blue, huh ???    Fix you to be a' squeelin' like a peeg .....

Best I can figure .... Dave , Jed , and me will be in Robinsville about 15-16:00 Hrs Friday.   I'd like to go  by way of the SkyWay about 14:00hrs (perfect time of day for Jeds first ride above the clouds !     I think I'll put the regular pulley back on my bike for this trip.  The larger tire has it at 8% overdrive even with the standard pulley  .

about time to try the GPS address in the Garmin to make sure it will work.

So in that picture, was he mad? or just not taking his meds?

Dave, my battery is holding at 12.44 volts overnight, starts fine and it is charging properly off the bike's charging system -- I think you can forgo the battery hauling if you want to.  

We got that nice hill coming off the covered parking lot that we all will park on, so I will do me a bump start in 3rd gear if needed for the first crank up.    Even if it acts weak over time, we will certainly ride enough to keep it well charged for subsequent cranks at pit stops, I am sure.

Remember, especially the females -- the Blue folk are sensitive about their condition.   Some meds can make them more normal looking, but if they are on a prescription for anything containing any compound with silver anything in it it can make them go true blue all by itself.   This is true even if the person is only part blood blue and tends to be pink most all of the time.

In Europe, where this condition originated they were accused of being Fae and the girls had their dress tops yanked down all the time looking for their wings and such by crowds of boys, so you can see there is a large background for simmering anger involved in being blue.

So, you folks be sensitive and discrete with Alan,  OK?    Please realize if your skin didn't transmit oxygen to your skin capillaries but a couple of percentage points less efficiently than it does that you would look blue too, as your blood is blue except when it contacts the oxygen in the air and all those color charts of the blood stream showing blue blood and red blood are simply the way it really really works all the time in you, too.

By the way you too turn blue when it gets cold enough to slow the flow of blood in your capillaries.

Notice the pics of the blue people show a slightly thicker, tougher skin tone, it is their skin capillary construction that makes them look blue toned instead of pink.  Turn your arm over and look at your wrist veins -- blue, huh?

Lessee'.  15-16:00 Hrs.  Divide by Pi, drop the decimal, multiply by 32.2, round off to the nearest minute.

We will be there Friday sometime before dinner (unless we eat first).

This is the gold standard of BS weather prediction that we have ignored for years unless the predicted amounts go up & over a quarter inch of precipitation when you check the individual days out for amount and duration.

It says all the days are fine except for a 0.1" accumulation of precipitation spread over 1.5 hours on Friday afternoon.

This is an acceptable risk, and yeah, if you believe in rain gear bring some.


Here is another view of the same days that gives a layman's read on the day.

Besides, Dave will only show us just how fast his Honda can really go only if it rains on him good.
