Bingo, Walt.

If I were a rich(er) man, I'd build/buy/steal a fleet of a broad selection of recumbents people could rent and/or just take out for a quick test ride. Trikes, SWB, LWB, CLWB and even the more relaxed crank forward cruisers would be included.

Hey, there's a thought that just hit me. I wonder how I could package a 501(c) with a small business loan and an application for money from the Rich Guys Federal Stimulus package in order to buy My Fleet? Anybody on the forum familiar with that type of thing?

Nah, you can't see his front paws dancing all over the sound board, those headphones would be back up before they even got too far from his ears. Here's The Cat, moving and grooving: The BluesCat

Alright! I discovered how to link the true, animated BluesCat into my avatar.

(Let me know if this is causing a resource --- or other --- headache, Admin, and I'll revert back to the static picture.)

Cat Stevens, perhaps? or maybe Kitty Wells, or Eartha Kitt? or possibly Khatchaturian? Some Deep Purr-ple?

Read my response to "What's on your iPod" over in the General Discussion area. Also, he definitely listens to "Ain't Superstitious" by Jeff Beck:

Ain't superstitious, but black cat just crossed my trail

... as well as Cat Scratch Fever by Uncle Ted, the Motor City Madman.

lol!
