I have recently purchased
12 locales in the Sosua cemetary. I will sell each of you riders one, now ahead of time so your family won't get taken..hehehe
My prices are fair. Let's say, uuuummmm, oh US$4000 a plot? And I'll have your name and DOB-DOD put onthe cover, for free??
Best Vehicle for DR driving? A Bradley!
Next best: Kenworth with a 16 speed gearbox,
Next? Let's see...Oh, maybe a Toyota Land Cruiser, GMC 4 x 4 or a Humvee...
Bikes, like I used to ride, are for motoconcho drivers and the folks that have moved up from burros to Honda 50s or 70s.
A Honda Shadow in this country? Okay, if you have a gazillion dollar insurance policy, humongeous salary and you live in Santo Domingo, Juan Dolio or La Romana.....all "sine qua nons". Picture this: 6:30 in the evening, December, you are whizzing down the main highway towards Cabarete, you catch some movement out of the side of your eye, you look, you see cows, you look back, and WHAM you just hit the blackest dumbest cow on the road. As you fly through the air, your last thoughts are: " That phuckin' Hillbilly wasn't half hard enough on me! Schitt!...Oh,.....Hello God!"
And folks, this is from a guy that used to drive his Honda back and forth to Santo Domingo in under 5 hours--on the OLD HIGHWAY!!!!! With no helmet, no brains and God's Own Angel on his shoulder!! And that's a fact! ( There were less than 3.6 million Dominicans then, but it was still foolish)
HB, who is lovin' gettin' on in life.....7+ g'kids and countin'
