Joe,
 
In this age of weighty concerns, you are wise to remain focused on the most  
important issues and avoid unnecessary distractions.  Clearly, the fact  that 
you name your bikes so as to associate them with human qualities (or at  least 
the qualities of a loyal family pet) show you to be well grounded with  your 
priorities in proper order.
 
In your heart, you already have the answer.  It is only the result of  your 
uncertain domestic situation which raises doubts as to the proper  course.  It 
is time to act decisively and do what you know you must; take  tool in hand 
and explore the mysteries which lie beneath the surface.   Rely on the power 
within and take control of your own destiny.  Those  rocker boxes are a metaphor 
for life.  Cure their weeping and awaken to a  new day.
 
Abby

Dear  Abby,

I've never written to you before, but I really need your advice  on what could
be a crucial decision. I've suspected for some time now that  my wife has been
cheating on me. The usual signs... Phone rings but if I  answer, the caller
hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a  lot recently although
when I ask their names she always says , "Just some  friends from work, you
don't know them." I always stay awake to look out  for her taxi coming home,
but she always walks down the drive, although I  can hear a car setting off, 
as
if she has gotten out of the car round the  corner. Why? Maybe she wasn't in a
taxi? I once picked her cell phone up  just to see what time it was and she
went berserk and screamed that I  should never touch her phone again and why
was I checking up on her.  Anyway, I have never broached the subject with my
wife. I think deep down I  just didn't want to know the truth, but last night
she went out again and I  decided to really check on her. I decided I was 
going
to park my Harley  Davidson,Ole Blue next to the garage and then hide behind 
it
so I could get  a good view of the whole street when she comes home. It was at
that moment,  crouching behind my Harley, that I noticed that the rocker boxes
on my  engine seem to be leaking a little oil.

Is this something I can fix  myself or should I take it back to the dealer?
