    "Tommen Forbes is basically your average sixteen year old: hates school, likes girls, desperate to get his license so he doesn't have to be stuck at home. Oh, and he's really a hundred and sixty years old with the ability to bend Time, to make it go faster or slower at will.

    His dad, Homicide Detective Walter Forbes, also has this ability. They are called Timekeepers. They answer to the Hands of Time and are charged with protecting Time itself from criminal Runners.

    When women start turning up dead, all the evidence points to Runner involvement. As Walter digs deeper, he discovers that their killer is no ordinary Runner; he's a notorious hired hitman with a sickening lust for death. Worse, his Time abilities far supersede anything Walter or Tommen is capable of.

    When the killer turns his sights on the father and son, it becomes a race against time to bring this menace to heel."

    No problem, I gave a 1972 XJ750J with about 35,000 miles, and looks great for a 35year old bike. It is my daily driver.

    Most likely, one of my coworkers ( also a Yamaha owner) said to also check that.

    Since we're shamelessly plugging things (hold all inappropriate comments), and I'm super shamless, and this is the Hangout Lounge, meltingpotstudio.ca. It's my wife's business site. Send her money. That way I don't have to give her as much... yeah right!

    I like her glass art, some certainly looks like traditional 'stained glass' others look like 'glass art' - is it indeed two different forms or just my poor vision?

    2 different forms... glued glass on antique windows, and fused glass melted in a kiln. She has done pieces in a chapel, lighting in houses, large scale mural piece in local hospice, ect. The majority of business comes from workshops where she teaches others the techniques. She is excellent as an artist and a teacher. I should marry her. What's that, 2 days until our 22nd anniversary? Oh, then she must have already locked this prize up!

    Not much is off limits in hangout lounge. Politics, religion, spam, porn, racism, das ist verboten! Bacon, whiskey, home brews, chocolate, Rush, sometimes even motorcycle related, it's all good!
