Mine is an '05 4.0 with a 5-speed. I have enjoyed it more than any car I've
ever owned. I will miss it, but given the choice to keep it or my bike - my

It seems that Allen may be willing to give up his scholarship in favor of

He has 5 star potential. From what I have read, he is a great point guard
and a great defender. Tishman thought defense was to get out of the way.
Everything I have read says Tishman is gone. I have also read that Adam
Allen will give up his scholarship and take an academic scholarship.
MY first bike is a Honda Shadow 600. I just started riding a few

165 lb two legger---don't they put out about ½ HP max?? I've heard they get
great mileage. I believe the Schwinns came with a French engine. I heard they
either ran well or surrendered.

Actually, I get more hp with the 155 lb. The Schwinn has a multinational
engine. Sometimes it runs, sometimes it hides.
