It has a rather long history. It started in the late 1930's with a few friends getting together
and riding Indian Motorcycles. Soon, they began having contests, who could get from point
a to point b first. Eventually it grew and became known as 'The Black Hills Rally' (due to the
black gold in the Dakota mountains).
In the late 40's a guy opened a bike store/shop in Sturgis. His nick name was 'Pappy'. He
is considered the founder of the Sturgis Rally.
Pappy rode an old Indian (well at that time it was not old). Over time the rally grew and grew.
Now every year in August, people from all over the world visit Sturgis, South Dakota for the
Harley Bike Rally. Old Indian bikes are welcome too. Whatever you do, don't ride a crotch
rocket to the rally!
Generally, over half a million people attend the big Sturgis Rally.
It's a ten day party fest where most anything goes.
My husband had a super glide (Harley) and we went to many rallies across the country. We
never made it to the big Sturgis Rally but they also have one called 'Little Sturgis' that is in
located in Kentucky. We went to the first 2 rallies at Little Sturgis. I guess now it's going on
20 years or more and has grown.
I think there are one or more other towns name 'Sturgis' that mimic the big Sturgis rally in
S. Dakota.
I guess we'll see in a few weeks how many come back home with the covid-19 virus.
Of course, we won't ever know how many spread it to others across the USA....
....BUT.....don't forget......harley riders from all across the world go to Sturgis!
Statistics don't relay much in facts these days. I am not sure they ever did.
Kind of like when Trump was running for president and all the statistics said he would lose
and Clinton would win by a landslide.
If they say 50,000 people died from the flu, they may also say those same 50,000 people
died from cancer.
If you have ever looked at a death certificates, they tend to run off a bit about everything
or rarely nothing.
In other words, when a person dies, they may state the person died of the flu because that
person had the flu which put the person in the hospital and the person got the flu due to a
poor immune system, due to brain cancer, due to .....and so on. It's the same for dying of
pneumonia. It's the same for a person that may have multiple health issues but died due
to being hospitalized for one of them.
Yeah it's rather crazy the 'green burger' thingie. Just a marketing ploy to say they are healthy
for you. I wouldn't eat it.
When my spouse was alive, some times he would say, 'lets have a toaster cheese'. I don't know
if anyone else does that but I coined the word 'toaster cheese' due to my laziness. So here is
my own recipe for toaster cheese:
Prep time: Really fast
2 slices of bread
1 slice of cheese (any kind you want)
1 slice of tomato
Mayo
Place bread in popup toaster and toast to very brown.
Spread some mayonnaise on each slide
Cut thin slice of tomato on place on one toast
Place cheese on other toast and inset in microwave just until cheese is melted
Place melted cheese toast on top of tomato toast
Slice in two sections, eat with a side of pickles and/or chips
There is absolutely no proof at all as to how the virus started.
We can guess since it appeared to start in Wuhan China, that it came from those awful bloody
horrific street markets in which they cage various exotic and precious domestic animals beside
and atop each other. Very very nasty to say the least. So it could have originated from bats
or due to a combination of sick animals. I just don't know how anyone could eat that nasty
fly infested stuff. If I was starving, I could not and would not eat it. I'd choose to die first.
Any way you look at it, there is no proof at this time.
Top right, submit support ticket button. When clicked, you will be at a page with a form
in order to submit your issue.
I tried it and inserted this topic link.
If you're having issue submitting your phone number for verification, yes you would need
to submit a support ticket with your phone number so that they can manually verify it for
you.
Looks like you have a double sword since you need to submit a ticket but can't.
You said in your bug report: Firefox and in Chrome
That may be the issue due to the problems Chrome has been having lately. Addon's could
be corrupted if you use those.
I am only guessing but I did submit this topic to supprt and I will post it in the moderator
forum. Next time admin visits the moderator forum, he will see it.
In regards to Tasks, they have been in short supply so I hear. From what I see in the Task
sub forum, they are seemingly getting back to norm. BUT it can take awhile to make each
level in Tasks and when starting out, it can be very slow. All you can do is look consistently
to see if there are tasks. A hint for you if you have not done tasks before, is to read some
threads in the Tasks sub forum.
Surveys vary and again you need to look consistently. They come and go rather quickly.
It's the same everywhere valerie, that's why it's called a QUARTER, and a 1/4 is the same internationally
In Canada it is $0.25 too, well actually $0.12 after tax deductions
I didn't know if every country has a quarter.
In the USA there has been times they considered phasing out the 1 cents. Nothing really cost
1 cent any more. I guess they moved past that and focusing on erasing money altogether.
USA quarter = $0.25 cents
