American Chopper

Your mom likes this show about a small but famous motorcycle shop called Orange County Choppers. It's owned and run by a family, and the dad and his sons get into arguments constantly. It is very entertaining, and I'm hoping that it lessens your mom's inhibitions about motorcycles. Maybe she'll let you ride (or even own) one some day. It's wild because these bikes sell for $130-150k. For a little perspective, I bought my Lexus (used) 5 years ago for $26k, and we just bought Kendra's SUV for $17k. You gotta pay the *big bucks* for custom built handiwork.
You'll probably never see the show, but if you do, you'll see something we enjoyed watching.
Tomorrow, your mom has to get up really early to give Praxis exams (teacher certifications) at UCA. She gets paid good money to sit and administer these things. I usually help her, but tomorrow I'm taking a break and taking care of the chores around the house. Chores. You're gonna love chores. (read with much sarcasm). Tomorrow I'm mowing, edging, landscaping, and tearing out some unwanted plants. I'm not much into gardening, but flowers are really inspiring. Signing off!
