i'm definitely riding tonight, and freezing to death.
luke, great performance last night. do you have anything on hard media? (as opposed to the internet)
and i dont know if that was a shot at me or danny or andrea (which is why we need to use bostonfixed.com cuz too much is going on here) but i'm not exactly sure what "flirting" and/or "macking" are.

AND YO! 300 TONIGHT! midnight showing at the fenway theater. i'm hoping to go there any buy a ticket around 7:30 before i head over to CSC.

stop whoring for bostonfixed.com already gary. if people want to be on there, they probably are already. i'm pretty sure we don't need flirting in any place, whether it's mixed in here or has a thread of it's own there. furthermore, bostonfixed.com seems to have turned into a public forum for john to talk about his ass/package so i don't know how necessary it really is.

Just because there is NO races this month, i though i should fill some of that void.

it is going to be a good time and fairly difficult, just like college!

fairly difficult like "oh i need to chug four beers in a row" difficult or "Abide Pt. 2 Manifest" difficult?

the secret? show up with a route in mind for a longer ride. If you have a destination, everyone will follow you.

Since it's snowing, anyone down for a snow ride tonight or tomorrow? We could end up at some place with hot food after.
