What's happens when you crash your bike on a lonely road of the Great Smoky Mountains, and nobody hears you scream?
In the last 6 weeks I’ve seen a bike in the Tennessee River in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a sad group of onlookers at a crash site on the Cherohala Skyway, and just yesterday, a rider went over the guardrail on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Overheard at the Dragon – They were winching his bike up after the wreck when the rider said, “That’s not my bike”. A few minutes later they found the remains that had laid there unseen for who knows how long.
AUSTIN (KXAN) - In the process of paying for a shortfall in the current budget, Formula 1Austin raced through the finish line with no time to spare. A $25 million funding boost to F1 survived a last-minute amendment to HB 4 meant to strip the racing event of that money.
Sen. Dan Patrick, R-Houston, proposed the amendment, but it was defeated. The F1 money came from the state's Major Events Trust Fund meant to attract and retain events of this caliber in Texas.
HB 4, the supplemental spending bill, also passed the Senate, paying the state's bills for the current year.
The Texas locals were so happy to get their MotoGP track, complete with Sanctuary Cities for illegal aliens and TSA gaterape, under threat of No Fly Zone from DOJ and Dictator Hussein Obama Soetoro Whatever...

"Went thru yesterday, saw 2 THP and pulled in a turn off just past them, lit a cig took a break and as I am sitting there figured I would warn those passing me. So I am almost done with my break, I see a truck coming with about 6 sport bikes behind it, I motion to slow down, pat my head and hold up 2 fingers (should be self explainitory) and just as I hold up the 2 fingers Mr GSXR guy decides it would be a good time to stand it up and pass the truck going into the curve on the wrong side of the road right in front of them. Sorry Mr GSXR guy, I tried, I guess it's true you can't fix stupid. So I get geared back up and head back that way and of course there he is talking to the THP, I wonder how that conversation worked out." -ETR Forum, Yesterday on the Hill
Recently, Professor Eugene Volokh classified criminally instruc-tional speech as part of a larger category called “crime-facilitating speech.”1 Professor Volokh defines crime-facilitating speech as any speech that provides information helpful in the commission of a crime.2 The category encompasses a wide variety of activities: pro-viding bombmaking instructions,3 holding seminars on how to commit tax fraud,4 exposing the identities of undercover agents,5 publishing the names of crime victims6 or witnesses,7 distributing maps of municipal water supply systems, and even flashing one’s headlights to alert other drivers to a speed trap."

STATE OF TENNESSEE v. BOBBY CRUTCHER - This is an appeal by the State of Tennessee from the judgment of the intermediate appellate court affirming the suppression of evidence in the trial court below.[1] The sole issue is whether the warrantless police search of the appellee’s motorcycle violated his rights guaranteed by the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article I, section 7 of the Tennessee Constitution. The State contends that the suppression of evidence was improper because the search in question was incident to a lawful arrest. For the reasons that follow, we conclude that the appellee, Bobby Crutcher, was not under arrest at the time of the police search. Accordingly, we affirm both the trial court and the Court of Criminal Appeal’s determination that the search was not incident to a lawful arrest. The evidence obtained from the search was properly suppressed. On October 19, 1995, Officer Frank Moniz of the Gallatin Police Department observed three motorcyclists drive away from a traffic light at an excessive rate of speed. The officer activated his emergency flashing equipment and pulled over two of the speeding motorcyclists. However, the third motorcycle, driven by the appellee, accelerated even more in an attempt to flee from the pursuing officer. Officer Moniz gave chase to the appellee and the two vehicles reached speeds of one hundred (100) miles per hour. April 12, 1999

Kyle Busch just issued a sort-of apology for his 128 mph speeding ticket -- chalking up his ridiculous speed to a test drive gone wrong, and the blatantly obvious ... "I got carried away."
In his statement Busch says , "I was test driving a new sports car and I got carried away. I went beyond the speed I should have been going on a public road. I apologize to the public, my fans, sponsors, and race teams for my lack of judgment."
The NASCAR bad boy was driving a Lexus LFA when cops in Troutman, NC pulled him over today ... doing 128 mph in a 45 mph zone. BTW ... the LFA packs about 552 horses!
Busch added, "I take responsibility for my actions and I can assure you that something like this will never happen again."
According to cops, Busch was targeted by a special unit called the "Aggressive Criminal Enforcement Team" of the Iredell County Sheriff's Dept.
If convicted, Busch can lose his license for up to a year and face $1,000 in fines.
FAST FACT: NASCAR drivers do not need a valid driver's license ... only a NASCAR license. So, Kyle -- currently 3rd in Sprint Cup points -- is not in jeopardy of getting yanked out of his #18 ride.
NASCAR driver Kyle Busch was clocked by a North Carolina sheriff's deputy going 128 mph in a 45 mph zone and was cited for careless and reckless driving and speeding, a law enforcement spokesman said Tuesday.
Iredell County Sheriff's Office Capt. Darren Campbell said a deputy stopped Busch's 2012 yellow Lexus sports car on a road between Troutman and Mooresville, where the 26-year-old driver lives. It's about 30 miles north of Charlotte.
Campbell said Busch was cited and released upon a written promise to appear in court.
In a statement issued late Tuesday, Busch acknowledged what happened.
"I was test-driving a new sports car and I got carried away," Busch said. "I went beyond the speed I should have been going on a public road. I apologize to the public, my fans, sponsors, and race teams for my lack of judgment."
Busch, who drives for Joe Gibbs Racing, accepted responsibility and said it would never happen again.
NASCAR spokesman Kerry Tharp said Busch would be allowed to race this weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. He's coming off a second-place finish in Saturday night's All-Star race, and goes into the Coca-Cola 600 ranked third in the Sprint Cup Series standings.
"This is a matter that Kyle will have to handle with the authorities in Iredell County," Tharp said. "Based on what we know right now, this would not impact his status as a NASCAR driver."
In 2006, Busch pleaded guilty to improper driving and was fined $150 after he was ticketed in suburban Richmond, Va., on a reckless driving charge when he pulled out of a gas station and into a fast-food restaurant. Busch said at the time he "chirped" his tires but didn't exceed 10 mph.
Under a misdemeanor reckless driving charge he originally faced, Busch could have received up to one year in jail, a $2,500 fine and a driver's license suspension.
Last month, Busch was placed on probation through June 15 after he and Kevin Harvick confronted each other in the pits after a race at Darlington Raceway.
In what should be called perfect casting, FX Network’s hit outlaw-biker drama ‘Sons of Anarchy’ has brought film star Danny Trejo on for several episodes during season 4 this fall.
As season 4 rapidly approaches, FX has recruited the ubiquitous Danny Trejo for a multi-episode arc alongside the members of SAMCRO on the biker drama Sons of Anarchy.
Trejo is set to portray former Mexican military commando Romero ‘Romeo’ Parada, who finds himself a new friend in SAMCRO. As with most roles in Sons of Anarchy, the part calls for someone who is capable of intimidating even the toughest of adversaries.
Hitting the road with the motorcycle club is no easy task; not every actor has what it takes to convincingly pull off the biker look and swagger. In this instance, however, the opposite may be true. Trejo could be so convincing he’ll end up intimidating the rest of the cast. In fact, Trejo is so capable of instilling fear that even his recent guest appearances on Modern Family and Bones were filled with a wee bit of trepidation on my part.
Whether he’s is playing the good guy, the bad guy – or a conflicted amalgam of the two – Trejo’s career has been built on the assumption that he is literally the most dangerous guy in the room.
A favorite of Robert Rodriguez, the actor has appeared in almost all of the director’s films including Desperado, From Dusk Till Dawn, and the Spy Kids franchise. Trejo even starred in last year’s Grindhouse offshoot Machete, which reunited him with his Heat co-star Robert De Niro.
Although we have a description of the character Trejo will be playing, we don’t yet know where Romeo Parada is going to fit in. In fact, much of season 4 will be spent finding out where the boys of the outlaw motorcycle club fit in as well.
Sons of Anarchy creator and showrunner Kurt Sutter has said that after the events of season 3, the biggest adversary SAMCRO will face in season 4 will be modernity.
“It’ll be a different Charming. There will be a new mayor and a new sheriff. The 21st century is going to land at SAMCRO’s doorstep. It’ll be interesting, because the 21st century will also bleed into their lives.”
With luck, Trejo will be integral to the storyline in season 4 and thereby enjoy a solid amount of screen time. Sons of Anarchy has had its fair share of actors willing to take a turn on the dark side – some have been obvious choices like Henry Rollins, while others like Adam Arkin and Hal Holbrook were unexpected pleasures. Like Rollins, the announcement of Trejo’s involvement seems like a match made in heaven. Frankly, one can hardly believe it took this long to happen.
Discovery HD Theater will air 6 episodes of “Superbike Family” beginning today at 10 am Eastern Time. If you missed them before make sure you set your DVR or Tivo.
At Infineon Raceway last weekend, Pegram hinted that the future of the show is dependent on the number of viewers it gets and the feedback HD Theater receives on the show.
The series depicts Larry Pegram and his family-based racing team as they compete on the AMA Superbike circuit.
Pegram, a career professional motorcycle for the last twenty years juggles his time managing the most successful independent Superbike team on the circuit while at the same time raising two young girls with his wife Heather. His dad Jim works full-time at the team shop, while his mother tends to the books and feeds the crew on weekends.
“The show is about my dream of becoming a Superbike Champion. Actually, it’s our dream. My parents have been helping me race motorcycles since I was a kid and they’re still here at every race working on the crew. My mechanics are the best and are so committed to this team. They do as much if not more than teams who have twice the manpower. We even have sponsors that after writing the check, help out on the weekends working in the pits. It’s definitely a family effort and we’re real proud of what we have accomplished going up against the factory teams. It’s not easy but all of us are chasing our dream.”

"The FBI has issued a BOLO on suspected terrorists driving a white delivery van from New York City to the Mexican border. The suspects are using Israeli passports. They are armed and dangerous." -Knox County TN Emergency 911 Dispatch, Sept 11, 2001, 11am EST
Nashville, Tenn (AP) -- A secret bill that increases penalties for supporting a patsy terrorist organization is headed to Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam for his rubber stamp.
"This is a great diversion opportunity for my daddy to loot the $30-billion budget to expand Pilot Oil," Haslam announced. "$10-billion in CAFR pension funds and profitible assets aren't listed in the Budget Report. Sheep don't read the CAFR."
Campaign contributions from ADL lobbyists ensured the measure passed the Senate 26-3, a day after the House version was approved 76-16. No legislators were actually present during the roll call vote on Saturday.
The current measure would allow the governor and the attorney general to label anyone as a terrorist if investigations from the state Department of Homeland Safety as well as the Office of Fatherland Security suggest they are enough of a threat.
The 15-page Material Support for Operation Northwoods Act of 2011 would ultimately fight “homegrown terrorism,” whether the state finds that threat in gangs, cults, religious groups or individuals, according to local gropenfuhrers.
The proposal is an almost Constitutional version of a bill that originally sought to make it a felony to follow some versions of the Islamic code known as Shariah, that forbids banks charging interest and requires wives to have sex with their husbands.
The measure would also no longer authorize the glorious leader nor his lawyer to decide whether a person or group is a terrorist organization, leaving that authority with the psychopathic federal government that burned down Atlanta and carried out the 9/11 attacks.
Republican Senate Sponsor Wild Bill Ketron of Murfreesboro said the proposal targets "home grown terrorist in our country, including Christians, homeschoolers, gun owners, drug dealers, wife beaters, and everyone who says the word 'Constitution'."
Tennessee Highway Patrol and local police are now authorized to rob motorists at gunpoint under "National Security". No trial will be allowed, only body cavity searches, waterboarding or electrodes clipped to genitals.
"Obama Bin Laden is dead," Abe Foxman said. "We don't need no stinkin trials in the War on Goyim. Hell, we made Christianity a felony in Israel, and only jews get citizenship, you dumb schmucks!"
“It’s un-American as far as I’m concerned,” said Rep. Mike Stewart. “What we’re saying here is that somebody in Tennessee, a regular person, can be declared a terrorist, and they have no right to a trial of their peers to clear their good name. That’s just completely the opposite of what we should be doing in this country.”
Mr. Stewart was promptly arrested, frog-marched to the red-light district next door to the Capitol, shot in the head and tossed in a dumpster.
"Our next Governor" Mike McWherter's campaign had a bombshell of an announcement today in their effort to shine a little light on Bill Haslam. It appears that in addition to single-handedly leading the effort to price-gouge defenseless old women who needed gas to go see their grand-children, Mr. Haslam also has deep ties to Mad Mahmoud Ahmadenijad. Here is a disturbing graphic to illustrate this connection:
You see, its all rather simple. Bill Haslam, along with the rest of his family, own stock in Pilot Corporation, the company Papa Haslam set up a few decades ago to sell cigarettes, booze and porn to little kids all across America. A few years back, Pilot sold some shares of the company to CVC Capital Partners, a global private equity firm. CVC also holds shares in a chemical company called Evonik, a global company which specializes in chemicals and energy. Evonik openly admits that they have done business in Iran, even boasting about it:
Evonik is a global market and technology leader in DL-methionine, an essential amino acid for healthy and environment-friendly nutrition of livestock, especially poultry. Growth drivers of this attractive market are the rapidly growing young middle-class and industrialization of local meat production. The main markets are Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Morocco.

It took 4 hours and $23,000 to get this crash victim to UT Hospital by Rural Metro Taxi Service and Lifestar VIP Taxi Service
Update: RIP Cruiser Rider - First fatal crash of 2011 on the Dragon, if you count dying in hospital. Does somebody really die when the White House don't count wartime deaths of soldiers who expire during evac or hospital, or do they just fade away?
KNOXVILLE, TENN. -- Two Slayers are in the hospital after wrecking their motorcycles this afternoon in Blount County.
Both accidents took place on Calderwood Highway, more commonly known as "The Dragon," due to its many curves with sharp teeth.
According to the Tennessee Ticket Patrol, the wrecks occurred at mile markers 3 and 7.
Both Dragonslayers were slayed by head-on crashes
The man traveling northbound at mile marker 3 failed to countersteer his motorcycle and went down an embankment.
He was overcharged $20,000 by Lifestar Taxi Service for the 10-minute flight to the Canadian-owned University of Tennessee Medical Center. He is listed in serious condition. CUT stocks rose 1% on the news.
The other Slayer was traveling southbound at mile marker 7.
He failed to countersteer going around a curve and also fell down an embankment. He was ticketed for wearing full body armor, which reduced profits of the Medical Industrial Complex.
He was also airjacked to CUT Hospital and is listed in stable condition.
Public servants did not admit the illegally low speed limit and lack of ambulance service was a factor in both wrecks.
The Slayers' motorcycle names have not yet been released.

Dragonater Note: These photos are the actual parties involved, except the potential head-on from the same weekend. Sarcasm saves lives, cops don't carry first aid equipment, and medical doctors kill more people than all wars combined.
"The most stunning statistic, however, is that the total number of deaths caused by conventional medicine is an astounding 783,936 per year. It is now evident that the American medical system is the leading cause of death and injury in the US. Using Leape's 1997 medical and drug error rate would add another 216,000 deaths, for a total of 999,936 deaths annually. Our estimated 10-year total of 7.8 million iatrogenic* deaths is more than all the casualties from all the wars fought by the US throughout its entire history. Our considerably higher figure is equivalent to six jumbo jets are falling out of the sky each day." —Gary Null, PhD; Carolyn Dean MD, ND; Martin Feldman, MD; Debora Rasio, MD; Dorothy Smith, PhD, Death by Medicine, March 2004 (plus 1-Million annual aborticides in USA)
"They have long been famed for their love of lavish banquets and rich recipes. But what is less well known is that the British royals also had a taste for human flesh. A new book on medicinal cannibalism has revealed that possibly as recently as the end of the 18th century British royalty swallowed parts of the human body. Even as they denounced the barbaric cannibals of the New World, they applied, drank, or wore powdered Egyptian mummy, human fat, flesh, bone, blood, brains and skin. Moss taken from the skulls of dead soldiers was even used as a cure for nosebleeds, according to Dr Richard Sugg at Durham University. Both Queen Mary II and her uncle King Charles II both took distilled human skull on their deathbeds in 1698 and 1685. Whilst corpse medicine has sometimes been presented as a medieval therapy, it was at its height during the social and scientific revolutions of early-modern Britain. In the heyday of medicinal cannibalism bodies or bones were routinely taken from Egyptian tombs and European graveyards. Not only that, but some way into the eighteenth century one of the biggest imports from Ireland into Britain was human skulls. Whether or not all this was worse than the modern black market in human organs is difficult to say. In Denmark the young Hans Christian Andersen saw parents getting their sick child to drink blood at the scaffold. So popular was this treatment that hangmen routinely had their assistants catch the blood in cups as it spurted from the necks of dying felons. Occasionally a patient might shortcut this system. At one early sixteenth-century execution in Germany, a vagrant grabbed the beheaded body before it had fallen, and drank the blood from him." -London Daily Mail, Medicinal Cannibalism: British royalty dined on human flesh, 21 May 2011
"'People are too trusting, people don't ask the right questions.' Sometimes, being too trusting was equated with being too dumb. But sometimes when he would say that and say, 'People don't ask the right questions,' it was almost with a sense of regret, as if he were uneasy with what he was part of, and wished that people would challenge it and maybe not be so trusting." -Dr. Lawrence Dunegan MD, quoting Dr. Richard Day MD who was director of a corporation paid $1-billion by the U.S. Govt to successfully genocide 100-million U.S. citizens, New Order of the Barbarians
