Bad news: I caught whatever the hell my wife had last week. So far I don't think I'm doing as badly as she did though.

Good news: PICKED UP MY NEW BIKE YESTERDAY!

Annoying news: The bike came with 44cm wide handle bars. I'm running 40cm wide and have contemplated going to 38cm wide on my current bike.

But still, NEW BIKE!

Hell, mine needs wound up every time.

I love how comically oversized that ladle is for the pot, and honestly the entire kitchen. It reminds me of the 3 foot potato smasher I accidentally ordered several years ago.

It's just .zip files all the way down

“They want you to say what they want you, what they want to have you say. And we’re not gonna let that happen. You’re going to say as you want and you’re going to believe, and you’re going to believe in God. You’re gonna believe in God because God is here and God is watching.”

I am the walrus?

This was my shakedown ride for the 100 miler planned for next weekend. :p

I am happy that I managed to keep nearly a 16mph average riding solo today. Also, just 8 more miles on this bike before I feel like I have definitely gotten my money's worth out of it.

I got home from a 100km bike ride about an hour ago. I'm going to go mow the lawn and get the patio staged so a fiber optic line can be run under it.

I thought it sounded like an investment firm. Or an ambulance chasing law office.

I think they have speed bumps, don't they? I know there are curbs just waiting to be run over.

Huh, my glaucoma looks more like macular degeneration. I have a fairly sizeable blind spot smack in the center of my left eye because of it.

If there was a good way to get states/counties/cities to communicate, I thought going to exponential taxation rates on properties would be useful.

First property has an exponent of 1. Second 2. Third 3. Etc.

Although, I'm not sure what that would do to something like my family's farm. It's somewhere around 200 acres, but not contiguous. There's like 50 acres here, 40 acres there, 2 acres over there. It's also one of the smaller farms in the area.
