Today I was in a 5.9 magnitude earthquake in VA. Luckily it wasn't as dramatic as it sounds. Just the building waving up and down a few inches for about 10-15".

Say you find your stolen bike at a flea market, what's the next course of action? Do you confront the guy, call the police, buy the bike back, or what?

I'm banged up but otherwise OK. Front wheel is pretty much done for and my fork is bent just enough where I'd have a serious problem riding it, knowing something's not right. And hamfoh, to answer you question:
She hit me going really slowly. She turned into me without looking, and I ended up flipping over her hood and my ass plopped into her sunroof, where I then threatened her life from until I realized she was about a second from messing her pants. Cops and emt came, everything was cool. Besides the fact that 89736876 people saw me get my ass owned...

Today I made the spicyest Couscous ever!! not cool-way too hot. then I walked over to my friends house where I got a ROAD BIKE!!!!!!!!!!
I rode it to the LBS to get some parts it needed. It feels really awkward riding Freewheel.I dont like it....but it will help me win my race coming up.

Today I saw this guy "place" his cannondale into the bike rack on campus and walk away. I almost wanted to hide/testdrive it just to make a point. A few hours later I saw some guy's shoes next to a fixed gear with what had to have been the loosest chain ever.

Your cog is slipping.
Today I decided that I'm pretty much fed up with my Omniums (the clicking is back...again) and will be swapping them out for some black 75s.

Today I had my first day of school. Didn't get pushed into many lockers but some freshmen insults were thrown around. Shortly after school I swam again, this time hard. 10 100m (4 laps) all out kicks with fins and a board. We went all out on the first one and tried to keep that time throughout the next 9, with 1 minutes of rest in between.
My body hurts.

Srsly. Every day I sit here looking at a bunch of 75s on the shelf wondering why I'm dealing with such bull****. Enough is too much!
Most likely, yeah. Minus the chainring. Maybe someone else will have better luck with them.
We're going to be putting up a 'used, demo, prototype, scratch & dent, etc' section on the site soon so that's most likely where I'll be listing them.

My boss/counterpart at work had never felt a quake before and didn't know what it was. Our manager (Japanese) knew right away and said something like yeah yeah earthquake, so what?
I figure we (at work) were about 150 miles from the epicenter. It was really minor like small slow waves. However, it apparently ties for the strongest earthquake on record for Virginia. It has now been decreed "The Great East Virginia Earthquake" because my company refers to the "Great East Japan Earthquake" in official company documents.
