We get it you cannot understand what I wrote. That is not what I said at all but thanks for playing, Johnny tell them what they get to take home. "A new sofa from Broyhill, Broyhill we make furniture for game shows"

I don't believe in putting money towards bikes at the bottom end for good reason. They don't gain value, they don't get better, they just get expensive. I guess I don't have a ton of money to burn so I don't recommend burning it but if you are one of those people who can do that, I would rather you not and use that money for good purposes or give it to someone who could do something good with it but I guess you want to burn it and I cannot really stop you.

I never understand why people fawn over the bottom end? Is it they hear bottom end and think of Sir Mix-A-Lots song "Baby Got Back" and not realize what they are looking at is not a women's prominent backside? Or are we just lying to people to placate them or is it something else?
