Just wondering what cliche everyone lives by, I have a few:

"Speed is only a question of money, how fast would you like to go?"
-????

Thank you Bruce Stanford for that. :up:

How appropriate for today - what with me trying to meet the draconian (and prejudicial?) requirements of the DOD/AF in order to ride my 'lil 'ol scooter (BV250) on base as a contractor and all.

This one is a parody of the immortal words of Commodore Oliver Perry, one that I first started using maybe 25 years ago after my first or second encounter with the gigantic bureaucratic machine that is the military. But this can be applied to almost any situation such as the race track where it could be that "you are your own worst enemy" (cliche intended).

"We have met the enemy and he is us!"
