  • Mass Ride

  • Group Ride Last Sunday

    “This weekend’s ride was very cold. When I returned to the car after a nice three-hour ride, my toes were numb. They came back to me in the car, ouch! The ride was nice, although there was too much socializing for me. There was some singletrack, but mostly doubletrack. After the ride, we all met…

  • Another Screwing by Sikorsky

    It”s not a big thing, actually it is a small one. But all the little things add up to one big screwing. It’s vent time ladies and gentleman and here is the latest installment. I just received an e-mail from the powers that be that reminds us (like we are children in need of reminding)…

  • Post Run Thoughts

    Today's run was fantastic. I did spend a lot of time cleaning up the trails because of a big wind storm last night. After the run Marcy and I stopped at McDonald's for some B_Fast. I don't know what I am going to do this weekend. I guess I should plan on that Yankee Peddler…

  • Lost In Blah Land

    Hello everyone, I just was reviewing a photo taken by Niko (Paul and Lucy’s son). He did a pretty great job—might even be better than his dad! Just kidding. Anyway, … lol. On another note, I could use some words of inspiration. I’ve hit a bit of a slump. Haven’t worked out in two days…

  • Happy Birthday Melinda

    Today it is my daughters birthday. Happy Birthday Melinda. A while back I asked the place I send my child support to give me their address. They replied that I couldn't have it. I asked Ronda on my site in a PM I believe about getting it. I think she ignored it.

  • Is PHP/MySQL The Way?

    Well, my site got hacked last night, and to be honest, I’m questioning the future of my cool website. I’m faced with a decision – whether to switch to a different code base or stick with this old format. Right now, I’m going in to check if my databases are still intact and, if they…

  • Power of Anger

    What, you are the only person I know in the whole world? I have no job, I sit at home taking notes, I have no life. I eat well and sleep well. I don’t stay up all night trying to figure out why a friend posts something on my site, it corrupts the data base,…

  • Outraged Cyclists

    Ah, the open road. A cyclist’s haven and, sadly, sometimes a battlefield. Here’s the scoop from the League of American Bicyclists, these folks who stand up for pedal-pushers everywhere. Picture this: October 22, a big day in Charlotte, NC. The FCC’s got its ears perked up, trying to figure out if local broadcasters are playing…

  • Let's Boycott Clear Channel

    Woah, talk about a real shocker! So, these DJs over at Clear Channel’s Raleigh station G105 went way off the deep end, huh? Encouraging folks to go after cyclists like it’s some kind of twisted game? That’s just nuts! And the bit about tossing Yoo-Hoo bottles and zooming down bike lanes on a motorcycle? Totally…

  • Everything begins and ends

    I watched the matrix last night alone. Soon I didn't realize that I was alone as I got lost in the movie. I went to a digital theater and that made it more awesome than ever. The movie was absolutely awesome, great. It had so many references to my philosophies that I couldn't believe what…

  • Matrix Movie Out Today

    Today’s the big day, the final Matrix movie finally hits theaters! I was all set to see it with the group at noon, but now they’ve pushed it to 4, which throws a wrench in things. So, guess who’s going solo? Yep, that’s me. I could tag along with them later, but that means I’d…

  • H E L P

    The statement below is from the company that I work for (no joke). Please read: An important addendum to your Savings Plan SPD and prospectus is now available on Employee Self Service. This addendum provides additional information about two recently announced changes to the Savings Plan: expanded ESOP diversification rights and conversion of ESOP stock…

  • New Pictures are Posted

    Tonight, I realized I’ve been slacking on sharing all the photos I’ve been getting in the mail. So, I’ve finally posted two sets! The first batch is from my trip to Saratoga Springs to visit Paul and Lucy (such a good time with those two!). The second set features Emerson and his mom, Julie. There’s…

  • Giving Up

    Mood: GrouchyMusic: Enya – Miss Clare RemembersFood: Blueberry Scone & CoffeeSetting: Work Alright, I think it’s time to throw in the towel on these morning runs. It’s just too dark out there, I’m talking pitch black, can’t-see-your-hand-in-front-of-your-face dark. I’m planning to do what I did last winter: head to work early, knock out the day,…

  • Description Of Good Weekend

    This weekend was wonderful. Friday night I went to a Halloween party at my friend Sean's house. We handed out candy to 250 children. Why so many … he said that there neiborhood is a popular place during Halloween and a lot of inner city kids show up. All these mini vans full of trick…

  • Back from Plattsburgh: Adventures, Tantrums, and (Maybe) New Tires?

    Yo yo yo, Plattsburgh survivors! Guess who’s back, like a bad penny refusing to stay hidden in your couch cushions? That’s right, yours truly, fresh off an adventure (or was it an ordeal?) in the great northern tundra. So strap in, folks, ’cause this update promises more twists and turns than a pretzel factory. First…
