Wednesday’s Link Dump

I spent yesterday at home, sick in bed. The horror.

We’ll see how today goes.

Anyone need a six foot vagina? Great conversation starter at parties and gatherings of all kinds.

For Sale – beautiful pink “vagina couch” that I made in art school and no longer have space for. The pics are from my portfolio and are several years old; as a result, the couch has some scuffmarks and stains around the bottom from being moved, but otherwise is in excellent shape. A professional upholsterer helped me build the couch, so it is also functional and durable as a piece of furniture. The couch must be picked up in Mendocino, a 3-hour drive north of SF. I am asking for $600 and a loving home! Call Willow… www.craigslist.org

Good old Moscow.

Hey Jonny. Just thought I’d let you know that Moscow is under about 2 or 3 feet of snow and it’s gusting 35mph. U of I, WSU, and all the school districts up here are closed for the week. We at Paradise Creek Bicycles were insane enough to open today, but by 4 o’ clock, having only made $15 (can of Clean Streak and a bottle of Tri Flow), Jon came back from a visit to Casa and decided fuck it- we’re closed. Good thing though is that I actually saw many crazed bikers actually riding today, one of whom is a City Council member. So Moscow is not all bad, just totally fucking snowed in and it will be a few weeks I’m sure before I’ll be riding a bike besides in circles around the bike shop or on the damn rollers in the living room.
Cheers,
Fred

We’ve had a lot of snow here in Flagstaff this winter, but not enough to close the schools for a week. That is a fair bit beyond what I’m suffering through.

I can’t read a word of this, but the vids speak for themselves.

Tremos, esperando hayan disfrutado de su paseo a San Miguel, les comparto estos videos de sociedades cicleras que por lo menos nos llevan 50 años de ventaja en la cultura del uso de la bicicleta.

I’ve been to Europe once, for all of four days. But I can tell you, those cats have it figured out. Mahatten ought to seriously consider getting rid of 95% of the cars they let on that island. It’d be better for everyone involved.

Much better.

Damn. We’re “sophisticated”? I gotta flip the script ’round here something fierce!

It looks a bit more complicated than just riding your bike up the hill, doesn’t it?

Thanks Mate

I guess that’s one way to park a bike.

About big jonny

The man, the legend. The guy who started it all back in the Year of Our Lord Beer, 2000, with a couple of pages worth of idiotic ranting hardcoded on some random porn site that would host anything you uploaded, a book called HTML for Dummies (which was completely appropriate), a bad attitude (which hasn’t much changed), and a Dell desktop running Win95 with 64 mgs of ram and a six gig hard drive. Those were the days. Then he went to law school. Go figure. Flagstaff, Arizona, USA

    In Idaho they ride in the snow. In Austrailia they park their bikes up people’s asses. In norway you dont have to ride uphill. And in N. Cal you can get a couch that looks like a giant twat.
    Flippin sweet.

  3. You know whats funny about the bike parking video…is there has been times that i have thought that….that is how I want to be buried if I do get buried…for two reasons….one…the obvious bike parking…and the other…the world can kiss it….

    out.

  4. …jeez, if i bought that vagina couch & one a’ those couches that look like a big pair of ultra-red lipsticked lips, man, i’d never get out a’ the house for all the fantasies…

    …just sayin’…

  5. bgw- if you did that, you might want to invest in a steam cleaner as well.

    just sayin’…:)

  6. That’s not a couch, that loveseat is a cozy chair for one. Great design though. Perfect for a bachelor pad.

  7. Reminds me of a chick I dated on Hill street years ago. I was wonder’n what ever happened to her.

  8. …salesman #1: who’s that guy on the bike ?…

    …salesman #2: dunno, but team bissel just hired him cuz he spends so much money renting steam cleaners from us…
