Fatherhood. I had no idea about it until I became one myself, and there really isn’t anything cooler than watching your own prodigy rip it up. I can’t wait to get my boy out on the trails too. Super cool…

Seven Years Coming…
Tucson Bike Swap
So it happened a couple of weeks ago already… that Tucson Bike Swap thing. It’s not to be missed imo since it’s the largest bicycle garage sale you’ll ever see other than Denver and the VeloSwap… or Elsons on rare occasion. But, time has been flying and truth be told, I didn’t get to spend [...]

Because its late on Friday and i’m still working, and i can’t figure out how to make MSNBC’s photo save onto my Mac, you’re gonna have to click this link to view this photo. but it’s worth the trip.

Maturity…
It brings many things. A better-developed palette for savoring various scotches and fine wines. It makes you appreciate fine food and all it’s intricacies.
It brings the knowledge that some people will bullshit you to get a laugh, while others will bullshit you to get your last dime and life’s blood and leave you dying in [...]
Thanksgiving 2008
As I take some time away from cooking the ham (my sister is bring’n the turkey), peeling the sweet potatoes, setting the table and cleaning the glasses, I’d like to share some rambling thoughts. Today is Thankgiving. And, for me anyway, it is a day to spend with friends and famliy. [...]
El Tour… FUCK YEAH!
What happens when you ride 109 miles with 7000 people that are WAY too excited to be riding 109 miles? A lesson for those of you that value your ass skin.
Getting Back To Cycling
Why’s it gotta be all full of hate? I remember when people were chill, relatively non-judgmental and just liked to ride. Sure, that was the time of Yod, Rex, Garro on two wheels, and the Mutanto halo of Cosmic and Alpine Pizza as far as Flagstaff is concerned. Then it got all segmented with shuttling, [...]

Books to Prepare Those Little Darlings for Real Life!
Indeed.
Random & Useless
I like what Belgium Knee Warmers has to say about the electronic Drua Ace groupo. What’s it called… the Di2
I appreciate the idea of a Milwakee Mimosa almost as much as I miss Michael Bussmann and Sausage.

Kyle
It has been four years since Kyle left us. I got an email from his sister Abby this week.

Hey Jonny,
It’s been awhile. Hope things are well for all of you. You can forward this to anyone you think would appreciate it. Since Kyle’s anniversary in here on Nov. 7, I wanted [...]

I don’t mean to make light of the week’s events, but this is brilliant……only a Brit……Honourary Membership to DC? I think he’s earned it, although he doesn’t mention bikes…..but he is completely blootered……

Dear naysayers…
Fuck You.
Also, you’re welcome. You now have something to bitch about for the next four years. You can whine ‘Socialist’ and ‘Hussein’ and ‘Muslim-baby-killing terrorist’ and whatever it is you want to bitch about. You’re welcome that enough of us have spoken up and said to your right-wing idiocracy “ENOUGH.”
You’re welcome, because without us, Rush, [...]
And so it goes
While we’re waiting for returns, you all can enjoy this recording. It’s old news, but too good to leave off DC after all we’ve seen. What’re we gonna do for fun when this debacle is over?

Get Stoked
Times are tough. The yellow bellies are on sale at Bashas. Poor a little out for my man Precious because he’s down at the shop right now, dealing with the tards and their reflectors.
Relativity
My political interest is completely tapped. I no longer care about the who, the what or the why. Mcbama, OPalin, Joe the Biden… whatever. It’s all just a reality show on a grand stage, and the tab goes to Joe the Tax Payer every time. Fuck all.

Be Like Dave Weins. A Consummate pro, and all around nice guy. Everyone ought to be a little more like him. Top Notch write up over at the nytimes.com. Thanks to Sad Cow for the heads up.

No Pun Intended
www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net
After reading that last post here on DC, it reminded me of the “no pun intended page”.
It also reminds me of the time I tried to go 2 to 1 with the Big Pun on drinks. Futility at its finest.
Fuck Mondays suck some ass.

Thursday Slide
Oil at $87. Time for a little OPEC slowdown. What the fuck do I care? I don’t even own a car.
Just sat through a lengthy c-span symposium including Rob Dugger, who I just met on the T.V. He seems pretty smart. The word of the day according to him, and in reference to the S&L [...]
