Feeling just like 65er. Snow sucks. I was supposed to have an outdoor soccer game. The "winter storm warning" put an end to that. I shoveled for exercise.
Now I'm grumpy & feeling stir crazy. Time to romp in the snow with the dog I guess....

I'm having a great afternoon... flipped mother nature the bird and my daughter and I went out to the warm and cozy shop to tidy things up.
Here is my home shop... still a mess but so much better than it was as I found the workbench.

I would never take them from such a sweetie!! (I'm not mean like Taerom) Tell her she can have my heart, though. :)

But she already has mine...
(All together now!) AAAAWWWWWW!!! :)
(I'm not mean like Taerom)
:rolleyes: Those boots probably wouldn't fit me anyway.
I just remembered that I uploaded some videos to Google a long time ago. Check out these skills...

waiting for my greek takeout to get here. tzatziki is God's way of letting us know that He loves us.

tzatziki is only one way we know (insert deity) loves us... there's also houmos, pitas, souvlakis, teropita, spanikopita, dolmathes...
Dang.
Now I am REALLY hungry.

Ah, that makes more sense.
Fastest I've been is 220...kph. (In Germany, on the Autobahn.)
Proportionally I think my worst speeding was on the bicycle, 22 in a 5 mph.
I love this hotel's wireless system.
God it's fast.
Bits per minuet would be all of them.

Damn.D'oh. I got one for 55 in a 40 a few weeks ago, and an 80-something in a 65 last summer (though I think the ticket might as well have been for driving with out-of-state plates...). Sucks, I've never gotten a ticket for anything ever, and then I get two in one year. :rolleyes: They were in two different states (ND and CA) so hopefully they don't "count" together, or something.

Was running late for work one day and called when I left the house and made the 15 mile trip in 7 minutes on my Honda 750 Supersport (with an 812 cc bb kit).
The staff were amazed to see me arrive on time and I said all I had to do was ride at roughly 130 mph to make that kind of time and just got baffled looks... then I translated that into metric for them which is 210 kmh.
Fastest I have ever ridden was 245 kmh... it's not that I couldn't have gone faster but that a little switch in my head said what the hell are you doing ?
I've hit nearly 100 kmh on a bicycle and that is far more frightening if you allow yourself to think about it.
Anyways... it's quiet time at Casa del Sixty as all the butterflies have been herded and all is quiet.

I didn't think that dance was popular anymore.
Belly is full from greek. Sixty Fiver, I've got half a thing of lemon potatoes left, as well as the most delicious peasant salad ever created. Their feta is so moist and mmmmgles....
Tired. Packed all weekend. Last week in NYC! Who is coming to Rochester for house party?!

No Siu... you are not bad.
I'm just feeling a wee bit mellow and introspective this evening and I just like stories with happy endings.
Good morning foo. I've had a wonderful weekend. First, I'm officially the president of my fraternity. Woot! I was inducted into my position Saturday evening at my chapter's formal event. Second, I might be getting a road bike at a nice deal ($375) that was used maybe at most 3 times. Finally, I got over my bad chest cold. I'm feeling great.
Have a good one guys.

Morning Foo!
Is Monday again. I no like Mondays. Got an interesting phone call today...it seems that the job I used to have has caused another person to quit. Seems he did not even give notice, he just got tired of it and walked out. Glad I left that position.
