Vermont Introduces Bill To Repeal Internal Combustion Engine Ban Don’t Delay! Please contact lawmakers to request their support for this bill:

Overview: Lawmakers in Vermont have introduced SAN-supported legislation (H.73) to repeal the law tying the state to California’s motor vehicle emission standards. Under current law, sales of new gas- and dieselpowered vehicles will be banned starting in 2035. The SAN believes that Vermont residents, not the government, should decide what vehicles are best for them and their families.

The bill awaits consideration in the House Environment and Energy Committee. -SEMA innovative perimeter braking system and structural swingarm, delivering a bike with exceptional handling in a non-sport bike format.

Curing Kids Cancer Breaks Record At Mecum Auction In Las Vegas! The South Point Hotel & Casino recently hosted the Mecum Motorcycle Auction at the end of January in Las Vegas, NV.

At 450 lbs. and 175 hp, Sands’ chassis geometry delivers roadfriendly handling that’s ready for the track. Using much of the standard Buell rolling kit, Sands engineered his chassis design to work with the swingarm, forks, original 17” wheels, and brake system. “Ground clearance, bar position, and comfortable seating and foot positions are key to getting the cruiser look with sport bike handling,” said Sands.

The Super Cruiser solidifies that Buell is Back and building more

An Irish priest was transferred to Texas. Father O’Malley rose from his bed one morning. It was a Fine spring day in his new Texas mission parish. He walked to the window of his bedroom to get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside. He then noticed there was a jackass lying dead in the middle of his front lawn. He promptly called the local police station. The conversation went like this: ‘’Good morning. This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?’’

‘’And the best of the day to yerself. This is Father O’Malley at St. Ann’s Catholic Church. There’s a jackass lying dead on me front lawn.” Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit, replied with a smirk: ‘’Well now Father, it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!’’ There was dead silence on the line for a moment… Then Father O’Malley replied: “Aye, ‘tis certainly true, but we are also obliged to notify the next of kin.’’

An elderly Italian man who lived on the outskirts of Rimini, Italy, went to the local church for confession. When the priest slid open the panel in the confessional, the man said: “Father, during World War II, a beautiful Jewish woman from our neighborhood knocked urgently on my door and asked me to hide her from the Nazis. So I hid her in my attic.” The priest replied: “That was a wonderful thing you did, and you have no need to confess that.” “There is more to tell, Father, she started to repay me with sexual favors. This happened several times a week, and sometimes twice on Sundays.” The priest said, “That was a long time ago and by doing what you did, you placed the two of you in great danger, but two people under those circumstances can easily succumb to the weakness of the flesh. However, if you are truly sorry for your actions, you are indeed forgiven.” “Thank you, Father. That’s a great load off my mind. I do have one more question.” “And what is that?” asked the priest. “Should I tell her the war is over?’’

Some people grow old gracefully, while others fight and scratch the whole way.v Andy’s wife, refusing to give in to the looks of growing old, goes out and buys a new line of expensive cosmetics guaranteed to make her look years younger. After a lengthy sitting before the mirror applying the “miracle” products, she asks her husband - “Darling, honestly, if you didn’t know me, what age would you say I am?” Looking over her carefully, Andy replied, “Judging from your skin, twenty; your hair, eighteen; and your figure, twenty five.” “Oh, you flatterer!” she gushed. Just as she was about to tell Andy his reward, he stops her by saying... “WHOA, hold on there sweety!” Andy interrupted. “I haven’t added them up yet!”

Stan was seconds away from receiving a vasectomy when his brother and sister-in-law barged in the room holding their newborn baby. “Stop! You can’t do this!” exclaimed the brother. “Don’t you want to have a beautiful baby someday like my wife and I have here?” Stan said nothing.The brother grew impatient, “C’mon Stan, I want a nephew. Stan, make me an uncle.” Stan couldn’t take it anymore. He gave his sisterin-law an apologetic look and asked his brother, “You’re SURE you want a nephew?” “Yes,” the brother replied. “It would be an honor!” “Well congratulations, you’re holding him!”

Aman is out shopping and discovers a new brand of Olympic condoms. Clearly impressed, he buys a pack. Upon getting home he shows his wife the purchase he just made. “Olympic condoms?” she blurts, “What makes them so special?” “They’re in three colors”, he replies, “Gold, Silver and Bronze.” “What color are you going to wear tonight?” she asks cheekily. “Gold of course”, says the man proudly! The wife responds wryly, “Why don’t you wear Silver, it would be nice if you came second for a change!”

Alittle 10-year-old girl was walking home, alone, from school one day, when a big man on a black motorcycle pulls up beside her. After following along for a while, he turns to her and asks, “Hey there little girl, do you want to go for a ride?” “NO!” says the little girl as she keeps on walking. The motorcyclist again pulls up beside her and says, “Hey, I will give you $10 if you hop on the back.” “NO!” says the little girl as she hurries down the street. The motorcyclist pulls up beside the little girl again and says, “Okay kid, my last offer! I’ll give you 20 Bucks “and” a big bag of candy if you will just hop on the back of my bike and we will go for a ride.” Finally, the little girl stops and turns towards him and screams out... “Look Dad” “You’re the one who bought the Honda instead of the Harley! YOU RIDE IT!”
