It's like--when I wake up in the morning and it looks like a good hair day.....

That means it's gonna rain

Believe it or not, I consider myself an optimist. But the laws of nature do not allow too many things to go right in a row. I guess it throws things out of whack.

I had a friend who said, her car knew how much money she had in her wallet. Whenever she had a little extra cash--car break down!

Glad you have a sense of humor. Although, I would have taken it as a sign and given up before loading the second bike.
