Another day, another dollar. Another week, another five bucks.
Can’t say I’m sorry to see it gone. At least I’ve been riding my bike to work. Nothing beyond that, mind you, but to work and back each day. And that is quite nice.
And, as an upside, I’m back down to 210 lbs. [...]
Happy Friday
No one loves a Tuesday. Not even the bastards mother…
The snow and cold weather just keeps on coming through. People keep telling me, “Hey, at least the trails will be in great shape!”
Yeah. In August. Good thing I’ve got the Drink of the week.
Could be worse. But I’ll complain anyway. It’s just what I do. And I do [...]
Drunkcyclist, our worst critics prefer to stay.
A whole lot has been written on this site lately, mostly in the comment section following bikepunk’s George Carlin is awesome post, regarding the concept of pride. Proud of this, proud of that.
KG commented: “It’s easy to understand why some people, especially those that contribute to this blog aren’t proud to [...]
Happy Friday
Today makes five days in a row riding to work this week. And on five different bikes no less. I might be starting a trend.
Either that or the weather is finally nice.
Whatever.
Happy Friday, everyone.
It’s the first week of April, and that only means one thing: The shit hits the collective fan this [...]
Sunday is a fun day
I just got done being sick last week, even missed a day of work on Tuesday. Opted for the “full day in bed” plan – and it worked out swimmingly. Everything was groovy till my sister came through this weekend with her two kids. One had a fever of 102, the other [...]
Haikuesday
the valley grew dark
suddenly, as big jonny
went back to the fridge.
Ol’ Dirty Bastard
I’ve got little else to share at the moment being sick and all. Big Gay Randy asked me how I’m always sick; I told him I got a kid in day care. Shit happens.
More on that bum later.

Nine Days Wonder
I don’t know how I first heard of these guys. I really have no idea. But, let me assure you, they rock. I’ve heard exactly two of their songs. In my entire life. And that’s enough to know.
Nine Days Wonder – The Next Realm
Cleaner sounding mp3 of the same track [...]
Hum
I was trading emails back and forth with my man Chris about bands a while back (as in years ago). I sent him two vids of Hum playing on some dumbass old show called 120 Minutes or twelve seconds or something like that. I want my MTV. They aired back in ‘95 [...]
Arctic Monkeys
Arctic Monkeys – Brainstorm
Editors
I first heard these guys on the radio while I drove over to Pun’s place one time. It was their tune “Munich”, it caught my ear and then some. I checked ‘em out online, like immediately. Pun made fun of me. Everything was good in the world.
Danger danger IE7 users… video [...]
Bat For Lashes
I think I link dumped this one once. Whatever. It’s time I embedded the vid and tagged it music.

Broken Social Scene
I don’t write much about music on these pages. Not often anyway. One group of folks that impresses me again and again is Broken Social Scene.
I won’t bore you with the particulars of when and how they founded the group, the line up changes or their studio work. In short, [...]
Is this bike porn?
Or just plain porn?
Vids below the fold…
Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip
I don’t know shit about these guys (is it two?) but god damn if they ain’t fun. They got a myspace page you can dig ‘em on here: myspace.com.
Ya’ll know the drill ~ vids below the fold. IE6 is fucked.
Unknown Hinson
I never heard of this cat until about five minutes ago.
I now worship him like a god.
new young pony club
The 80’s are apparently back in a big way. Or at least the kids today are rep’n that shit to the fullest. Even though I went to high school in the 80’s and hated every minute of it, I still dig the music. And maybe hating every minute of it is what [...]
I am old
Man, I sure am getting old. I’ve got a mountain bike that is sixteen years old out in my garage and I listen to music that was recorded in 1985.
I wouldn’t change it if I could.
My twenty year high school reunion is slated for next spring. Not that I’ve received an [...]
