I don't know how much longer I have ... a minute? an hour? a year? 50 years? Since I don't know when my time is up, I'm going to make the most of every minute. And riding my motorcycle brings me pleasure, so I'm going to do it. And if I get killed on my next ride ... at least I died doing something I love. I'd rather be killed quickly on a motorcycle than to waste away in an old-age home...

Whew, I'm feeling morbid tonight...
