Well, this is an “interesting” problem for Harley Davidson...

 
 

According to the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg, Harley-Davidson is struggling to find enough repossession agents to repossess bikes from those who don’t make their payments. And the problem is so big that the MoCo reported a $52.6M credit loss stemming from its financial services division. In addition, its motorcycle delinquency rate rose 46 percent to 3.2 percent from a typical rate of about 2 percent.

The theory is while the pandemic was on, spending was encouraged, and payments were enabled by government stimulus checks. But by the time the pandemic was over and the checks stopped coming, some Harley-Davidson buyers no longer had the means to make their payments, and delinquencies began to rise.

 

But unfortunately for Harley, during the pandemic, many motorcycle repossession companies left the industry and never returned. The lack of recovery agents has Harley scrambling to find willing and able professionals to repossess their bikes from delinquent buyers.

Think about this for a second. What's the single craziest,

ballsiest thing you could possibly think of to do?

 

Yeah - not even close. Think about this guy. Back in 1984, Astronaut Bruce McCandless II became the first human being to do a spacewalk without a safety tether linked to a spacecraft. How could you possibly prep for this kinda craziness? You gotta have some kinda incredible faith in what was then an un-tested flight package. THAT, my friends, is ballsy. Juss' sayin'...

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced Wednesday he had sent a group of migrants to Los Angeles, the latest attempt by a red-state governor to provoke progressive California on immigration.

Abbott’s decision expands a program that has sent thousands of migrants to Vice President Kamala Harris’s residence in Washington as well as to Denver, Chicago and Philadelphia as part of an effort to call attention to U.S. border policy.

The Texas governor’s move comes days after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration transported asylum-seekers from Texas to Sacramento, prompting condemnations and threats of criminal prosecution from California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said first responders and nonprofits had been alerted to the arrival of more than 40 migrants - and excoriated Abbott for “using human beings as pawns in his cheap political games.” “Los Angeles is not a city motivated by hate or fear and we absolutely will not be swayed or moved by petty politicians playing with human lives,” Bass said in a statement.

What part of 'FUCK YOU, GAVIN' do we not understand?

We just didn't get these subtle little innuendos when we were kids. In retrospect, they're pretty frikkin' hilarious. They were so subtle - any you know me - I like subtle...

I lived in OKC for a year or so back in the mid-70's. I have no idea what the lamp has to do with Chicasha (the town is right outside OKC), but hey - whatever floats their boat...

I told you guys about how my wife took the news of Sajak's retirement very hard, so I don't think I have the heart to tell her this story. If you see her, don't mention you saw this here.

For the reecord? If that headline WERE true, it'd almost guarantee the death of that franchise. Juss' sayin'...
