What Kind Of Motorcycle Is It?

There are few notable old re-conditioned beasts around Babite but this one stands out as it looks like a quality rebuild. I encountered it at my local Elvi this morning but didn't have time to properly scope it out before it disappeared. Anyone know what it is?

What's On TeeVee In Latvia?

Basic Tele2 service pack...3:00pm:


996 KINO TV HD, two idiots babbling about movies as though they knew shit. Best thing about this channel was the very likable blonde girl they chased away many months ago and then disrespected by putting a sign on her chair saying Ï Am Not A Movie Geek." FU movie twats! I have no idea what HD means. Huge Dicks? It can't possibly mean High Definition. You don't know shit movie twats!


997 Video Noma actual movie promo's. But direct to video stuff. It serves no purpose but to eat bandwidth and in this it succeeds wonderfully.


998 HD Testa Kanals, the same National Geographic loop for many years now. Planets. Origins. Sea water flowing over magma. It picked up for 1 month this summer when it was a 24 hr Seal concert. Contract must have run out. Back to bubbling cauldrons of mud and bad graphics, for another year. There's that HD again'!


100 INFO KANALS what it sez folks. How to run your remote to better enjoy the many choices offered by your basic Tele2 channel package.


101 LTV1 German kiddy movie sub titled into Latvian with audio. Death.


102 LTV7 Soccer. Slashing my wrists.


103 TV3 Latvian soaper. Looking for something to punch.


104 LNT Latvian daytime talk show. Forehead hits desk as I nod off. Awake with a start and find remote control spilling drink in the process, blonde host is suggesting violence to her guests. CLICK!!


105 TV5 Russian, cuz of the neon backdrop and stupidity. Sub titled into Latvian. Bad suits. Flesh colored face mic's. The horror, the horror!
