S stopped by (my) work on his way to Wichita with his Girlfriend. He couldn't wait to tell me his Father called him on his way to work, asked him whether he was broke or not.... then said he'd quickly remedy that, and send him a check immediately. Dick also told him he was looking at motorcycles for D..... I said "Did you mean 4 wheeler?" S said, "No, motorcycle" I took a real deep breath.... twice actually, before I could gather enough words that weren't choice.... and replied "That's interesting."

It wasn't bad enough Dick damned near killed himself on one in 2006, Dick also knows my youngest brother did nearly the same, only his brain was so swollen, the paramedics at the time, assumed he was dead, or was going to die very quickly.... He also knows my best friend's brother lost his spleen and part of his liver, and had two broken legs.... He knows I don't care for the things, especially in some place like California, and with all the traffic.

D is 16..... She hasn't even had her license for a year yet! We are all rather nervous when she drives a car..... WTH! She really didn't ride a bike all that much when she was younger! Argh!

Anyway, sounds like Dick is up to his usual routine.... making himself look good for all to see, just before the hearing.
