I know where I was July 17, 1990

Thanks to the availability of information on the internets, I know I was at Fenway Park on July 17, 1990.
From Wikipedia:
"Playing against the Boston Red Sox on July 17, 1990, the Minnesota Twins became the first (and to date the only) team in baseball history to turn two triple plays in the same game. Both triple plays were 5-4-3 plays (Gary Gaetti - Al Newman - Kent Hrbek). Jody Reed was the first out in the fourth inning play and the final out (batting) in the eighth inning play. Despite their defensive heroics, the Twins lost the game 1–0."

Why aren't people honest?

Aggravating day. I have been looking into renting a bike for this 800 mi. trip we have coming up in June. Called a dealership and asked about their rentals. Guy gets my info, starts the reservation process and then tells me the bike I'm interested in is booked for that time period and all he has is another model that is a lot bigger and more to rent. I get hit with a moment of panic and tell him to reserve it for me.
Later that day I'm looking into the model he does have and realize it is HUGE, like 900lbs without riders. I call another rental place and find out they have exactly what I want and if I join the AMA (motorcycle organization) I can save 15% on the rental which ends up being a significant amount of money.
Today, I join the AMA, called and emailed the first guy and said to cancel the reservation and if the bike I originally wanted becomes available through a cancellation to let me know. An hour later he emails me back and says he's changed my reservation and got me back on the first bike I asked for......???
Cost me $50 to join the American Motorcycle Association for a year, but even still I'm saving $100 so I guess I shouldn't complain.
Seems fishy he didn't have the bike I wanted until I told him to cancel and I was going elsewhere.

$$ (or lack thereof)

Sometimes I go back and look at my pins on Pinterest and just think to myself,  "You gotta start playing the lottery".

I think this will be good

Well, I've pretty much decided that this is what I'm renting. I thought about the Road King but it's about $50 a day more and it's the same size engine and performance so I guess I'll save some money. 2014 Harley Davidson Heritage Softail:

Anticipation

Do you ever look forward to something to the point that it can't possibly be as good as you anticipate? I think I feel that way right now. It will be good, but can it be THAT good? I guess in 43 days we'll see....
