Then Kensi goes on to quote the most significant cause of death among returning veterans is motorcycle accidents. So my wife and I are sitting there listening to this and I am thinking this is being a little over played and she is thinking about what her next husband will be like.
An older rider who'd owned an Indian Chief for many years got married. One Sunday morning, as usual, he was out in the garage putzing with the bike; lubing, adjusting, polishing. His new wife came into the garage and said: "You spend all your time out here with that damn bike instead of me! When do I get some time? I think you like the motorcycle more than me...etc. etc. etc."
The rider waited until she finally shut up and said: "you know, for a minute there you sounded just like my ex-wife." She said: "What? I didn't know you were married before!"
He said: "I wasn't."
