Re: What do you want to vent about today?
... a bit bleak right now. The Deegee clan really seems to be taking more than your fair share recently. Let's hope that's everything for the time being, I imagine even your stoic temperament is being tested by the all the support need from you.

Re: Elections and polls
I reckon you get a lot of "don't know" or won't say from people who are taking the unpopular vote (I mean unpopular in the social media sense)

Re: Kwacky's biking plans
Well it looks like the Z900 has dropped out of my possibles.
Which leaves a space, currently being filled by the 2017 Fireblade, but that's just on looks and spec alone. A couple of years ago I wanted a Tracer until I rode one.
