Don't Get a 79!

1979 Suzuki RM 125

"High and Mighty"

Eddie was exasperated.  "What did I just get done telling you?" He said. "Don't get a 79!  You can't handle it! I'm tellin ya! You're not ready for it!.

"Get a 78!"

1978 Suzuki RM125
"Faster than their Speeding Bullets!"

But Fred was still still dubious. "Yeah but Eddie", he said, it says here that they made a bunch of improvements over the 78." Fred started to read from the motocross magazine that was in his hands:


"High and Mighty. The 1979 Suzuki RM125 has over an inch and a half more travel in the front and rear suspension......."


Eddie interrrupted: "I don't give a fuck what the magazine says. You don't need the extra height because your still a beginner. The height would only come in handy for an experienced racer like me!"    Eddie paused......"Hello! he resumed. Ya listenin?"


But Fred continued reading: " Faster gears in the gearbox mean quicker times off the line........."


 (Eddie was shaking his head.)


"A guaranteed holeshot!" Fred added , and feigned a throttle twisting motion with his right hand.


Then he paused as Eddie's sister Sharie walked by. Sharie was tall, and lately had a habit of walking by in a sort of lingering and desultory, though very attractive way, which never failed to make Fred pause and flush slightly. 


"Whaddya lookin' at?" Eddie asked. "Her?"


"N...No"  Fred replied, hesitantly, and a little too slowly.


"Yes you are. I saw that look you gave her. What are ya Crazy?"


Fred looked down, and felt embarrassed. 


"You don't want her!" Eddie said.


"She's a Whore! She fucked the whole football team!"


Then Eddie looked at his sister and said: "Why don't you gt the fuck outta here, and leave us alone?"


Now Fred started to feel even more embarrassed, and even confused. He was silent for a moment , and then said:


"You know Eddie, you really shouldn't talk like that about your sister."
