Good Morning. Im beginning my day with some Miles Davis courtesy of KUTX and Sunday Morning Jazz, which I enjoy to no end.
Summer has arrived here in Texas. I walked Miss Betty this morning at about 830, and it was already 84 degrees. We’re no where near as hot as it usually is this time of year, and we’ve been thankful for the cooler weather so far, but I can’t help but think Mother Nature is saving up to give it all to us at once.
This weather is always a catalyst for discussion about where we would like to live outside of the blast furnace we call home now, and this year it takes a little more seriousness, as I’m not too far from retirement. Close enough indeed that it’s time to start some serious thinking on the subject.
We are traveling to California next month for a week, and I know that will spur some ideas of moving there. Im not against it, thanks to the popularity of Austin, most of the reason real estate there was so insane has actually moved here. For what this house will sell for we can buy an ocean front lot up the coast from Los Angeles with money to spare. There are of course, plusses and minuses to everything.
I hope you all have a fine day.
“Ultimately, happiness comes down to choosing between the discomfort of becoming aware of your mental afflictions and the discomfort of being ruled by them.”
Silly statement, there have been literally endless pages written about the impossibility of truly knowing someone, regardless of how relatively close they were to us in our lives. I’ve been thinking lately though about how little I truly knew about my mother after her passing this last November. Today this was put in my mind by a memory of something she found amusing. There is a scene in the movie Jumping Jack Flash with Whoopi Goldberg, where she is being pulled behind a car inside a phone booth. She is panicking, justifiably so, and she’s on the phone with someone saying “I’m a little black woman in a big silver box!!”. My mother thought this scene was hilarious. She would laugh and laugh anytime it was on, and would even reference it at other times. I’ve never even seen the whole movie, and have no idea what it’s about overall.
To this day, I have no idea why she thought it was funny. I don’t find it amusing, and I’m not a fan of Whoopi Goldberg in general. My mom loved everything she did. I’ve often thought about this over the years, even before she died, though it never seems to have occurred to me to ask her about it. We talked a good bit when I was younger, I mean most times we were the other’s only companion during regular days. Though we conversed, she didn’t often discuss philosophical things with me. In fact, I could count on one hand the number of times our conversations weren’t practical or pragmatic in nature. How to do this or that thing, or something similar. It’s different for me and my kids, I do have practical conversations with them, but far more often it’s philosophical in nature. We talk about the why of things more than the what. I feel like if they know the why, the what becomes clear on its most often. I think it just reiterates my original statement that we can never really know someone, though I hope my kids are not thinking of why I might have said something once I’m gone.
It is the want of happiness that makes one unhappy, not the absence of it.
Is the process more important than the product?
I’m decompressing to some of the best come-down music ever written and recorded. Moonlight Sonata. (Ludwig Van - obviously)
Well, it was an interesting weekend. Too short, as always, but somewhat rewarding and generally enjoyable. We closed it all out last night with a bit of dim sum.
👍🏼
I’ve been thumbing through the micro.blog users that I see with similiar interests to me, so I have been following a few folks here the last two days. Hopefully this is the preffered method of developing this little network, and no one takes offense to it.

I got over it - the procrastination that is…
I’m currently procrastinating on going for an hour long bike ride. Some sort of nonsense in my mind about needed to “decompress” before I go…
I felt a need to put quotes around the “day off” portion of that sentence. Before one can consider answering it, you have to consider the phrase’s definition. I mean, a day off what? Work? There is work everywhere. When I come home each day, I know I have enough work waiting for me to never face much “leisure” time in my foreseeable future.
Is it time away from my paying job? Well, I can make a strong argument that work done to improve my home will be more valuable than my salary at some point. With the pandemic pushing folks to work away from work for over a year now, there is a new normal.
I think we are at a point where we redefine the nature of “work.”
Well I finally gave up on Apple Music. I tried, I really did. I wanted to like it, but no matter what the suggestions were just never right, I had all sorts of errors with playback, and the playlists just never worked right. I just really like Spotify. I’ll keep my Apple Music account, but I doubt I’ll use it much. Cest la vie.
Monday night we went to the dyslexia night event at RRISD. We brought Jack with us, not really with a plan, just thinking that having him might help us understand some of what he deals with. Maybe bouncing things off of him, etc. Initially we had no idea what the evening was going to be, on the way over I had Sam read the description from the flyer, and we found that it was a “simulation” event, where we would be presented with scenarios that were designed to make us feel the confusion and frustration that our children with dyslexia struggled with. So there were a number of things that stuck with me on the night, first, and foremost was Jack. He indicated that he thought it was a good simulation of how he feels every day, in fact, he told the assembled group at the end of the night as much on his own, without prompting. He was one of two or three kids present that I believe to have been the Dyslexic population. i think a few others were there for various reasons, but a few I think were also there for the experience. We did a few stations that were designed to mimic and simulate the frustration that kids feel when surrounded by those not afflicted with Dyslexia. one was a mirror that had to be positioned in front of the writer so that you used it to write out letters and words. This was EXCEEDINGLY difficult for me, and the “teacher” walked around praising some “students” and chiding others. This had the desired effect, i actually threw up my hands in frustration and tried to quit. Another similar station had us writing made up letters and words that we weren’t familiar with, and forced to use our non dominant hands. This had the effect of creating a jerky, uncertain writing method, and I actually saw my hands looking as Jacks do when he writes. My favorite of the evening was a section where we had to read paragraphs and passages that were written in a patterned gibberish alphabet, however not everyone had those passages, some had the same passage written in english. So when the “teacher” called on you, you may or may not be able to read your section. It was borderline embarrassing when your passage was gibberish and someone else suddenly piped up with the passage as if it was no problem at all. I learned a lot. One of the other reading stations had the letters and words printed backwards, and initially I thought this was a forced way to simulate the confusion but what I found was a situation where I couldn’t identify words, even when i had recently read THE SAME WORD just a sentence or two before. This is something I’ve seen Jack struggle with time and again, and unfortunately I have to admit that I have let frustration get the better of me many time when it occurred, and lost my patience with him. I think my main take away from this is to spend some time learning methods to teach and be calm with my dyslexic kid, because it is more obvious than ever for me that he is different, and it is me who doesn’t understand that, not him.
not a ton to tell, just trying really hard to get in some shape that doesn’t look like a pear before the first cross race of the season.

The Charge of the 1st Battalion Queens Own Cameron Highlanders at Escaut Canal, Belgium, 21 May 1940 by David Rowlands. The last Highland Regiment to wear a kilt in battle.
Many Scottish units wore the kilt in combat during the First World War. In particular, the ferocious tactics of the Black Watch led to their acquiring the nickname “Ladies from Hell” from the German troops that faced them inthe trenches. The Highland regiments of the Commonwealth armies entered the Second World War wearing the kilt, but it was rapidly recognized as impractical for modern warfare, and in the first year of the war was officially banned as combat dress. Nonetheless, individual exceptions continued, and it is believed the kilt was last widely worn in action at the evacuation of Dunkirk in May 1940. However, on D-Day, June 1944, Lord Lovat, commander of 1 Special Service Brigade, was accompanied by his personal piper Bill Millin, who wore a kilt — and played the bagpipes.

People have been remembering Robin’s comedic works all day. But I keep going back to this movie because it’s still my favorite of his dramatic roles. It’s probably the most visually brilliant movie ever made. And the story seems so relevant right now because it’s about death and suicide and moving on and keeping hold of ones we love.
………………
I’ve always wanted to see that, partially because it looks visually dazzling, partially because it deals with themes that interest me, and partially because I suspect it’s been mocked unfairly.
I still can’t get my head around this thing. I can’t imagine what drove Robin to where he found himself this morning.
Peace is very hard to come by, peace of mind, that much harder yet, well nigh impossible at times, but let me say this, if you’re out there, one of my many brothers and sisters, and you find yourself in this place, just call me up. Hit me up on Facebook, shoot me a tweet. Carrier pigeon, smoke signals, beat on my door.
We’ll go for a bike ride. Or get a coffee, or a beer. Or “go over to Harvahd and beat up some smahtkids”. Were in this together.
You’re never really alone. Ever.
To Mr Williams, we will truly and deeply miss you. Peace to you, and to those who loved you tonight, and tomorrow.

The Best Pictures Of This Year’s Japanese Cherry Blossoms
The Japanese cherry blossom, known as the Sakura in Japanese, is the flower of a cherry tree that is cultivated for its decorative features rather than for cherries (it doesn’t bear fruit). The overwhelming beauty of the cherry blossom bloom has been known and adored for ages. The blooming period is associated with Japanese traditions, culture, aesthetics, and is a bittersweet metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life itself.
The blooming cherry blossoms herald the beginning of the centuries-old Hanami festival – the traditional Japanese custom of picnicking under trees rich with flowering Sakura branches and enjoying this short but striking first breath of spring. The blossoming wave usually starts in Okinawa in January or February and progresses through all of Japan until April or May. The cherry blossom front (Sakura zensen) can be conveniently tracked every year using this calendar.
Cherry blossoms are beautiful.
Cherry blossoms try to kill me every year.

James Charles alters the portraits on American dollar bills, exchanging the original staid and solemn faces with those of famous pop culture icons. Sometimes Charles simply draws over the original portraits on the bills, giving the famous politico faces playful makeovers, while on others he completely replaces the original faces. In either case, the text at the bottom of every bill is also replaced with either the name of the new face or a quote or descriptive phrase.
The Bride of Frankenstein’s text reads “Runaway Bride” while Frankenstein’s Monster reads “Love Lorn.” And Willy Wonka’s bill reads “The Bossman” while an Oompa-Loompa on another bill reads “Working Class Stiff.”
These dollars were exhibited back in 2011 as part of the American Iconomics show at the Shooting Gallery in San Francisco.

The Best Pictures Of This Year’s Japanese Cherry Blossoms
The Japanese cherry blossom, known as the Sakura in Japanese, is the flower of a cherry tree that is cultivated for its decorative features rather than for cherries (it doesn’t bear fruit). The overwhelming beauty of the cherry blossom bloom has been known and adored for ages. The blooming period is associated with Japanese traditions, culture, aesthetics, and is a bittersweet metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life itself.
The blooming cherry blossoms herald the beginning of the centuries-old Hanami festival – the traditional Japanese custom of picnicking under trees rich with flowering Sakura branches and enjoying this short but striking first breath of spring. The blossoming wave usually starts in Okinawa in January or February and progresses through all of Japan until April or May. The cherry blossom front (Sakura zensen) can be conveniently tracked every year using this calendar.

The sky above the port was the colour of television, tuned to a dead channel.
If you’d gone to a publisher in 1981 with a proposal for a science-fiction novel that consisted of a really clear and simple description of the world today, they’d have read your proposal and said, Well, it’s impossible. This is ridiculous. This doesn’t even make any sense. … Fossil fuels have been discovered to be destabilizing the planet’s climate, with possibly drastic consequences. There’s an epidemic, highly contagious, lethal sexual disease that destroys the human immune system, raging virtually uncontrolled throughout much of Africa. New York has been attacked by Islamist fundamentalists, who have destroyed the two tallest buildings in the city, and the United States in response has invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. … You haven’t even gotten to the Internet. By the time you were telling about the Internet, they’d be showing you the door. It’s just too much science fiction.
I love the 356, mostly for how it looks, as its performance is…underwhelming, but hell it looks good.

This is, and forever will be, one of my favourite movie scenes ever.
Motherfucker do you comprehend the intensity of that scene? Do you?
They pictured the feeling of tasting something that takes you way fucking back in time and makes you remember a certain moment of your life, a taste so comforting that makes you remember how happy you were back then.
MOTHER FUCKING PIXAR.
AND THE THING IS
OUT OF ALL OF THE THINGS THAT COULD HAVE IMPRESSED EGO
IT WAS A SIMPLE DISH THAT WAS CONSIDERED A ‘PEASANT’ DISH.
FUCKING PIXAR YO.

So I hit Ant Hills, Memorial, and Jack Brooks park before the storm hit down there and tackied everything up. A few things struck me-
—Houston folks are DEAD SERIOUS about bike/trail etiquette. I must have heard “RIDER!!” 2000 times at Memorial. (Not knocking it, its just not something that happens in Austin), that being said, not a single person asked me if I was ok when I stopped to tighten a BB bolt, something that happens on Austin trails to the point of irritation. Interesting difference.
—The trails had almost zero elevation change, but were somehow still fun. It was rootfest at Ant Hills and Memorial of course, and the sand was a heart breaker in a few places, but it was still a lot of fun. Ant Hills in particular was varied and entertaining, though I wonder how long before that flat “out and back” would get boring.
—West End Cycles is still the coolest bike shop I’ve ever hung out in. Blaine in particular is really entertaining to talk to. They were my shop of choice when I lived down there, and even though that was ten years ago, it felt like walking into my neighbors house when I dropped by Thursday. I would dare to say that just about every shop in Austin could learn some STRONG lessons about customer service from them. (Customer service does not equal “free shit”, it’s all about engaging with the folks that come in the door.)
—Htown has made huge strides in becoming a better city to ride in. There are green belts and connectors everywhere. I was over at my Alma Mater, Cougar High (University of Houston) and there were bike racks everywhere, routes to get in and out of AO posted, and there is a bike friendly light rail line going in that drops you right at the door.
—Htown has equal (or better??) beer and coffee than ATX. This will be controversial, I know, but I find it to be true. Karbach, and St Arnolds, are two of the better known beers, but I hit a few places with kegs of stuff I had never heard of and I was shocked to find it was local. Katz roasts a fine coffee bean. I’m on the fence about whether over all Houston or Austin is better on this front, and in general I refrain from comparisons like this, so I’ll just say, good options abound.
—IF I were banished back to the Bayou City, I would likely revert back to road riding, but there is enough fun MTB stuff that a ride or two a week would keep me going.
interested in others thoughts about the place…

“Welcome to Cardboard Box Office – our homemade creations of some of your favorite movie scenes built from some of our favorite domestic junk.
The project began after finding that we had accumulated both a lot of cardboard boxes (due to moving to a new country) and a baby (due to giving birth). With our social lives drastically altered we decided to find a way to make some of those housebound weekends a little more fun.
The costumes, props, and sets in Cardboard Box Office are created entirely out of everyday household items, toys, cardboard, and three individuals slowly losing their sanity. Enjoy!”

As where the official LEGO version features 1,368 pieces, this custom job utilizes over 150,000 LEGO building blocks to recreate the classic scene from J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic film. In addition to the staggering number of bricks used for the installation, Helm’s Deep also includes 1,700 minifgures.

It is a dark time for the Rebellion. Although the Death Star has been destroyed, Imperial troops have driven the Rebel forces from their hidden base and pursued them across the galaxy. Evading the dreaded Imperial Starfleet, a group of freedom fighters led by Luke Skywalker have established a new secret base on the remote ice world of Hoth. The evil lord Darth Vader, obsessed with finding young Skywalker, has dispatched thousands of remote probes into the far reaches of space….

I have great places to ride.
Cycling is a strange deal. I obviously love the feeling, like nothing else, even more than my motorcycle, but sometimes, just out of the blue, my motivation just dies. I just look at the bike and think of a 100 reasons not to ride, rather one reason TO ride.
Right now, this more than anything else, is my bicycling hurdle. I have to break this trend, and the way is just to go ride. I know this, but its as if a giant fist is holding me, stopping me from going out the door. “what if I flat, I dont have time to put my kit together, what if I crash, this week is important at work, what if I’m too tired afterward to get anything done…”
When I type it out, its infuriating, and maybe thats the right answer, typing it out, like saying it to someone, makes me realize how dumb it is…
Lets see if it works…

“Here is the story of the motorcycle so far. Bought about a year ago as a commuter in a totally original state (not even an exhaust on it). The bike was doing it’s job pretty well, but i saw that there where some true potentials of beauty in her.
Inspiration came from bike builders like A.C santcuary & Bulldock Japan and i started with a very tight budget of aprox. $800 to build it. A lot of one off parts made by me like the clip on’s, the tail tidy and even the solid brass label on the exhaust is made by hand by me. The color is a unique, one off mixture off gold & green pearl with black stripes on it, and a thick coat of clear laquer (5 hands of it!)
Lot’s of powdercoated parts, wheels, swingarm, triple trees even the levers are OEM powder coated. The fact that I was on such a tight budget made me try something different, the bike is not a bolt on bike.
The exhaust is the original OEM headers 4 to 1, chopped, with a one off inserted silencer. The headlight is a 1978 yamaha xs 400. I changed the brake hoses with braided one, chopped rear light, lever hollowed by hand and a lot of small part’s on the bike are powder coated. Even the seat was remoulded with anti-slip surface.The bike was built in a room acually with late night’s and rock’n’roll music!
I am very proud of her (here in Greece bikes have a sex when we talk about them)Yours sincerely

“Drinking is an emotional thing. It joggles you out of the standardism of everyday life, out of everything being the same. It yanks you out of your body and your mind and throws you against the wall. I have the feeling that drinking is a form of suicide where you’re allowed to return to life and begin all over the next day. It’s like killing yourself, and then you’re reborn. I guess I’ve lived about ten or fifteen thousand lives now.” Charles Bukowski

On March 19, 1945… the USS Franklin CV-13 and nicknamed Big Ben, is seen here heavily listing to starboard after a lone dive bomber equipped with armor piercing bombs attacked prior to the Franklin launching her fully armed aircraft that were warming up on deck. She (the USS Franklin) is credited as the most heavily damage Carrier to survive WW II.

April 24th Walnut Creek ride
What a magnificent place for a morning coffee
- Kummerspeck (German)
Excess weight gained from emotional overeating. Literally, grief bacon.- Shemomedjamo (Georgian)
You know when you’re really full, but your meal is just so delicious, you can’t stop eating it?- Tartle (Scots)
The nearly onomatopoeic word for that panicky hesitation just before you have to introduce someone whose name you can’t quite remember.- Mamihlapinatapai (Yaghan language of Tierra del Fuego)
This word captures that special look shared between two people, when both are wishing that the other would do something that they both want, but neither want to do.- Backpfeifengesicht (German)
A face badly in need of a fist.- Iktsuarpok (Inuit)
You know that feeling of anticipation when you’re waiting for someone to show up at your house and you keep going outside to see if they’re there yet?- Pelinti (Buli, Ghana)
Your friend bites into a piece of piping hot pizza, then opens his mouth and sort of tilts his head around while making an “aaaarrrahh” noise. The Ghanaians have a word for that. More specifically, it means “to move hot food around in your mouth.”- Greng-jai (Thai)
That feeling you get when you don’t want someone to do something for you because it would be a pain for them.- Mencolek (Indonesian)
You know that old trick where you tap someone lightly on the opposite shoulder from behind to fool them? The Indonesians have a word for it.- Faamiti (Samoan)
To make a squeaking sound by sucking air past the lips in order to gain the attention of a dog or child.- Gigil (Filipino)
The urge to pinch or squeeze something that is irresistibly cute.- Yuputka (Ulwa)
A word made for walking in the woods at night, it’s the phantom sensation of something crawling on your skin.- Zhaghzhagh (Persian)
The chattering of teeth from the cold or from rage.- Vybafnout (Czech)
A word tailor-made for annoying older brothers—it means to jump out and say boo.- Fremdschämen (German)
; Myötähäpeä (Finnish)
The kindler, gentler cousins of Schadenfreude, both these words mean something akin to “vicarious embarrassment.”- Lagom (Swedish)
Maybe Goldilocks was Swedish? This slippery little word is hard to define, but means something like, “Not too much, and not too little, but juuuuust right.”- Pålegg (Norweigian)
Sandwich Artists unite! The Norwegians have a non-specific descriptor for anything – ham, cheese, jam, Nutella, mustard, herring, pickles, Doritos, you name it – you might consider putting into a sandwich.- Layogenic (Tagalog)
Remember in Clueless when Cher describes someone as “a full-on Monet…from far away, it’s OK, but up close it’s a big old mess”? That’s exactly what this word means.- Bakku-shan (Japanese)
Or there this Japanese slang term, which describes the experience of seeing a woman who appears pretty from behind but not from the front.- Seigneur-terraces (French)
Coffee shop dwellers who sit at tables a long time but spend little money.- Ya’arburnee (Arabic)
This word is the hopeful declaration that you will die before someone you love deeply, because you cannot stand to live without them. Literally, may you bury me.- Pana Po’o (Hawaiian)
“Hmm, now where did I leave those keys?” he said, pana po’oing. It means to scratch your head in order to help you remember something you’ve forgotten.- Slampadato (Italian)
Addicted to the UV glow of tanning salons? This word describes you.- Zeg (Georgian)
It means “the day after tomorrow.” OK, we do have “overmorrow” in English, but when was the last time someone used that?- Cafune (Brazilian Portuguese)
Leave it to the Brazilians to come up with a word for “tenderly running your fingers through your lover’s hair.”- Koi No Yokan (Japanese)
The sense upon first meeting a person that the two of you are going to fall in love.- Kaelling (Danish)
You know that woman who stands on her doorstep (or in line at the supermarket, or at the park, or in a restaurant)
cursing at her children? The Danes know her, too.- Boketto (Japanese)
It’s nice to know that the Japanese think enough of the act of gazing vacantly into the distance without thinking to give it a name.- L’esprit de l’escalier (French)
Literally, stairwell wit—a too-late retort thought of only after departure.- Cotisuelto (Caribbean Spanish)
A word that would aptly describe the prevailing fashion trend among American men under 40, it means one who wears the shirt tail outside of his trousers.- Packesel (German)
The packesel is the person who’s stuck carrying everyone else’s bags on a trip. Literally, a burro.- Hygge (Danish)
Denmark’s mantra, hygge is the pleasant, genial, and intimate feeling associated with sitting around a fire in the winter with close friends.- Cavoli Riscaldati (Italian)
The result of attempting to revive an unworkable relationship. Translates to “reheated cabbage.”- Bilita Mpash (Bantu)
An amazing dream. Not just a “good” dream; the opposite of a nightmare.- Litost (Czech)
Milan Kundera described the emotion as “a state of torment created by the sudden sight of one’s own misery.”- Luftmensch (Yiddish)
There are several Yiddish words to describe social misfits. This one is for an impractical dreamer with no business sense.
After the big rainstorm on the Cyclotour du Léman, Heidi aka my girlfriend stuffing herself with… cheese. What else?
When I started racing my father told me, ‘Cristiano, nobody has three balls but some people have two very good ones. – Cristiano Da Matta

“This shot is the most expensive shot in silent film history. It was filmed in a single take, that had to be perfect, with a real train and a ‘dummy’ engineer (notice the white arm hanging out the conductors window). Some of the locals who came to watch the filming, thought the dummy was a real person and screamed in horror; supposedly, one person even fainted.”

“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”

Sandy is a bitch. My walls are concrete, bring it on. Show me what you got.
yep. Thats me. 14,900 feet over South Eastern Afghanistan.
Good Times.

Its darker much later each day now. It’s fully 7:30, and the sun has only just started to peak over the tree tops, silhouetting them against the very pale light. The heavy mist from yesterday is still with us, and other than the birds, vocally announcing their presence, it’s very quiet still.
A little more Ali
her handlebars are…dopey….
Storms on the ocean have a special feel. I used to sit and watch them roll in from far out at sea when I lived on the coast. It was a foreboding, but not frightening feeling.
excellent
These boots and I have been around the world, (literally), and they are very much, MINE.
Mr Jimmy
The absolute GREATEST FIGHTER of all time. People argue with me that “He was the greatest of his time” or that “it was a different era” its all BULLSHIT. Ali is, and will be, the GREATEST.

Cityscapes are fascinating, there are probably 250,000 people milling around unseen in this one. I could stare at it for hours.

The mist in the air makes everything calm, like after a snowfall.
"The more inebriated citizens were a little harder to understand as they often repeated the sentences they staggered through several seconds before, but that describes what the hallways of Congress are like right after their lunch break, so what the hell."

Flat!! (Taken with Instagram)
I havent flatted in five years, and this one was weird, it went down slooooow instead of just “bang” flat. Quick fix though.
I’ve been waiting on this cookbook for two weeks… (Taken with Instagram)

Obviously I’ve been riding a lot. After a year of doing nothing but swimming and lifting, I’m finally finding the fire to get the wheels rolling under me again. It’s been very satisfying to spin the cranks, and feel my legs strong, and able.
(*disclaimer, that is NOT my bike above, I just think its stunning…)

The Himalayas,
I have been to some remote places, not Nepal, but I have been to places in Afghanistan where white men had never been seen before, there is a purity in these places, that cant be easily described.

This is the speech President Richard Nixon was prepared to give in case Apollo 11 did not safely return.
Luckily, it was never needed. RIP Neil Armstrong.
It’s Saturday coffee time. I call this my “Navy” mug, though I got it from a guy in the Coast Guard, and I dont think it was from the ship. I was complaining about thin walled mugs not keeping things hot, and he just showed up with it one day. He said, “you have to ask a guy who stands on the bridge for nine hours with a cup.”
Thanks Mike
I like nice things
Pushbike stuff Embrocations, hydration etc. I seem to be on a grassroots push these days, with Mad Alchemy and Skratch labs, but there’s no way around it just working. Im a long way from being an elite cyclist nowdays so I need all the help I can get.

It should be 107 degrees today, and the 73rd day over 100 this summer. I figure I need to take advantage of the relative cool before all that hits, so Im enjoying my coffee, and my dog, out here while its only 93.

I feel dehydrated today, but I think its an effect of allergies, and allergy medicine more than really being dehydrated, but my eyes feel dry and puffy, and I absolutely HATE that feeling.
He just started laughing at something my daughter said, and even when sick, he is absolutely addictive.
This is looking to be a pretty good year.
