...and she gets to keep the pickle!

This is getting to be fun! At long last, politics is oozing into my motorcycle world with McCain offering up his ol' lady for the bimbo pageant at The Black Hills Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis SD. Speaking as a certifiable old fart, I think we need more 54-year-old broads in wet t-shirt contests and the like, as long as they don't get pleurisy in their knees from the dampness...

Following up on my video post about Mrs. McBuffalo Chip, go see The Pickle-Licking Contest. Try to disregard the inevitable (try not to get it now! Heh.) visual of "licking 'Pickles' Bush" (Ohmigod! I didn't really say that, did I?). Didja ever think ya'd see shit like that at HuffPo? Ha!

By way of background, the pickle-licking deal is an offshoot of a game played at motorcycle field meets for probably a hundred years, but more easily done on a stage for an audience. In the old days, and probably still, a hot dog was suspended by a string, and the rider would position his motorcycle under it, stopped or moving very slowly without putting his feet on the ground, while his main squeeze, standing on the passenger pegs, would try to take a bite out of it. The fun came in when the rider couldn't balance the bike anymore and he and the m.s. would go tumbling off to the delight of the assembled throng of spectators.
