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 [...]

Snowing like all hell again in Flagstaff, Arizona. File this under “the view from my window”:

Big Jonny declined excitement.
File this under “fucking up a good thing”:
The traditional Philly cheesesteak has gone precipitously upscale at one new restaurant, where the chopped steak and melted cheese standard includes goose liver and truffles — and costs $100.

I spend last Sunday in hiding. I avoided the telephone and internet, and most people truthfully, until the magic hour of 2:00 pm. For that is when the Versus channel played the delayed coverage of the Tour of Flanders, the storied 92nd Ronde van Vlaanderen. I wanted no spoilers to intrude on [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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.
Ol’ Dirty Bastard – Brooklyn Zoo

Something to think about when you assert your right to ride.
Be safe out there.

Broken Social Scene – Fire Eye’d Boy

Miles Davis – So What

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 [...]

When keeping it real goes wrong:
Woman bicycling with shotgun strapped to back is arrested
It was a sight that would catch anyone’s attention — a woman riding a bicycle around St. Cloud, Minn., late at night in the bitter cold. Turns out there was another reason a citizen took notice: The cyclist was carrying a gun. [...]

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 – Brainstorm

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 [...]

I think I link dumped this one once. Whatever. It’s time I embedded the vid and tagged it music.

Well, I’ll be damned. Barack Obama’s Iowa Caucus Victory Speech below:

We can talk about Huckabee’s big win after being totally and completely outspent by Romney (I’ve heard ten to one!), Romney then folding like a lawn chair, [...]

Bombs & techno, like peas and carrots.
