Yup, finally happened. 
. I had just gotten gas while riding home and about 5 miles down the road the motor started sputtering and losing power. I pulled over onto a grassy, but not shady, spot in front of a convenience store - how convenient is that?
I thought at first it was water in the gas, drained the bowl, but no water came out. Started it up, same problem. Checked plugs, same problem. Next I checked for loose wires and found none. Finally, I removed the cone cover and inspected the points. They didn't look too swift, although they were firing, so I took out my spare pair, installed and gapped and . . . walla! Bike roared to life, full power restored.
Worse thing was, my arms and shoulders got sunburned pretty good - it got to low 90s. Put in over 100 miles today....

This is alarming!
Beer contains female hormones!
Yes, that's right, FEMALE hormones!
Last month, Montreal University and scientists released the results of a recent
analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer.
Men should take a concerned look at their beer consumption.
The theory is that beer contains female hormones (hops contain
Phytoestrogens) and that by drinking enough beer, men turn
into women.
To test the theory, 100 men each drank 8 pints of beer within a one (1) hour period.
It was then observed that 100% of the test subjects, yes,
100% of all these men:
1) Argued over nothing.
2) Refused to apologize when obviously wrong.
3) Gained weight.
4) Talked excessively without making sense.
5) Became overly emotional....
