Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Winter Storm Watch? wut

If I was a local journalist I'd do a hard-hitting exposé on what really goes on behind the scenes of that so-called family ice skating night. I'd blow that scandal wide open.

Yeah but that would have been when the magic was with them. The magic is no more, it has ceased to exist, it's pining for the fiords of Norway, it is an ex magic situation. I would sell every stock of Apple I owned and buy Samsung, or Walmart, maybe Dunkin Donuts. Anything but apple, unless in a pie.

One might even say that it has run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible...

I love my apple stuff, I do fear for the company though. Hard to overestimate the power and genius that was steve jobs and what the future bears without him. Not an optimist on this one.
