word of the day . . .

Good morning. The perfect word as in Fred's or Sagebrush's Armamtarium armamentarium (ahr-muh-men-TAR-ee-uhm) noun, plural armamentaria The collection of equipment and techniques available to one in a particular field, especially referring to KLR 650's .[From Latin armamentarium (arsenal), eventually from Latin armare (to arm). Ironically, the word to describe the apparatus of war (armament) and the word for 'doohickey' paraphernalia (armamentarium) derive from the same root.] George Escondido, CA [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

******************* farkle: the addition of pretty accessories to one's motorcycle, especially to a Harlery Davidson, or other cruiser type motorcycle. as in "Bubba spent every dime he had adding farkle to his FLX/CHPR." MarkB (w/ well armamentariumed KLR650) ******************* I could be mistaken....but I think a 'Farkle' is an Accessory for the ST1100. I mention this only to hopefully eliminate the potential for 'Farkles' being bolted to any HD products resulting in panic, injury and/or serious death resulting from new found available speeds North of 85 MPH. :-) John Rasmussen Moorhead, Minnesota 82 and Sunshine

you go into a grocery store and buy a 6-pak, some snooce, and a can of beans. The cashier says 'your single, aren't you'? 'Why do you say that'? 'Just because of what I bought'? No, said the cashier. 'Because your ugly'!! George Escondido, CA

same root.] Etymological note: I believe the term is originally a Hodaka term, applied to stuff for your Combat Wombat, which spread first to the plain, or "non-combat" Wombat, and from there gained wider currency.
