    Congrats, Robert! But with your talents, you were not gonna be unemployed for long!

    BTW, SWMBO's TCI is still rock solid! We do about 200 miles a weekend!

    Great to hear you are back in the work force, the economy is really bad in alot of places right now, my wife and I worked at the same company until she got laid off almost 2 years ago, life has changed abit for us, thats one of the reasons I sold my Maxim (to help pay some bills). My brother is letting me ride his Sportster back and forth to work for now, anyway, she just got rehired this past week so hopefully we can turn things around and maybe soon I can get me another Maxim, anyways, good luck...

    Good to hear you weren't down for to long. Hope you enjoy your new job! Glad everything worked out for you! I had 2 months off already this year due to a layoff(I don't mind being layed off I hate my job!). That is why I call it funemployment :lol: ! I went back to work in june for a month then herniated a couple discs in my neck in july( that hurts like a b*@%h :cry: and my arm/hand goes numb every now and again). I almost had to have surgery on it even(still may if it acts up again). I finally get to go back to work part time this monday.

    I don't know how long you were layed off for but at least you could ride your bike and regain some peace of mind that way. The last month I havn't been able to ride at all(or do anything for that matter). For about 3 weeks I lost about 50% of the strength in my left arm. On the bright side at least I had a nice driveway ornament with my bike sitting there. I finally was able to ride it yesterday for about 5 miles... My arm only went numb about 3 times! yay... Anyway enough about me!

    Keep one eye on Britain. Give it a year or so and every last one of us will be unemployed. As this is due to the hole in the economy created by the banking 'industry', we are supposed to understand and be glad to sacrifice ourselves for the good of the country.(i.e. the very same banking industry) You could'nt make it up.
