Unpublished on Examiner.<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n

For five years now I have written for Examiner.com as their National Motorcycle Examiner<\/a>, though of late I’ve been doing a minimum of work for them. Here’s an example of why.<\/p>\n

I was putting up an article recently and found that when I filtered my content list for just the unpublished pieces there was more than the one I was working on. Turns out someone down there in their infinite wisdom decided to unpublish a piece I put up in 2010, presumably because it contained objectionable material. Now? After all this time? And what was objectionable about it?<\/p>\n

So I’m going to republish it right here and let you see if you can figure out what they decided they didn’t like.<\/p>\n

Only a biker knows . . .: Motorcycle wit and wisdom, #15<\/h3>\n

Dang, those bikers are quotable. It all started with the line, “Only a biker knows why a dog sticks its head out the window” and now we’re back with out 15th batch of amusing, sometimes thought-provoking, frequently dead-on biker quotes. Enjoy.<\/p>\n

  • You ain’t livin’ unless you’re livin’ on the edge.<\/li>\n
  • Bounce like you’ve got hydraulics in your G-string.<\/li>\n
  • Never look where you are going, always look where you want to go.<\/li>\n
  • On a motorcycle, you’re penetrating distance right along with the machine. In a car, you’re just a spectator; the windshield’s like a TV. — Von Dutch<\/li>\n
  • If it’s too loud you’re too old.<\/li>\n
  • You’re a biker wannabe if you spit out the bug that just flew in your mouth.<\/li>\n
  • Some people ride to enjoy life, some ride to travel, and some people ride to bars.<\/li>\n
  • Don’t die wondering, die wandering.<\/li>\n
  • Adventure is not the road we travel, it’s the obstacles we overcome.<\/li>\n
  • At the end of the day, you’ve still got to twist that throttle.<\/li>\n
  • Gravity: Obeying the law is for pussies.<\/li>\n
  • I don’t know, it’s kinda weird, but the constant chest pains seem to go away when I let the clutch out on my bike.<\/li>\n
  • Scars are tattoos with better stories!<\/li>\n
  • Remember kiddies, bikers have more fun than people.<\/li>\n
  • Remember when sex was safe and motorcycles were dangerous?<\/li>\n
  • If motorcycles are not allowed in heaven then I’ll ride mine to hell.<\/li>\n
  • Midnight bugs taste just as bad as noon time bugs.<\/li>\n
  • I’m a highway junkie! Lord, I love a white line!!!<\/li>\n
  • Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today. — James Dean<\/li>\n
  • It’s not the bike so much as it’s the rider. Put the stock pistons back in the bike and quit messing with stuff you don’t understand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    OK, there you go. Something in there is pretty offensive, right? My best guess is that it’s that line about gravity, and they got some cock-eyed idea that it was referring to female anatomy as opposed to being a synonym for wussies or wimps or something like that. There are a lot of reasons I don’t write much for them anymore and this is just one more on the list. Too bad, it was a good gig for a while.<\/p>\n

    Biker Quote for Today<\/h3>\n

    Motorcycles are better than men because motorcycles don’t pass gas and belch all the time. If they do, you can do something about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
