What's the danger? Do those things that hold the sails swing around unpredictably?

Jon Stewart's take on the issue the past week or so has been hilariously awesome.

I could get approximately the same wattage with a cadence around 95 but that tires me too quickly. I have never been a high cadence kind of guy even though I have tried many times.
I'm kind of that way, too. I'm capable of short high cadence bursts, my idle/cruising cadence is lower, like 80-90rpm.

In other news I do have to find a new LBS. the front fell of mine and it's stuck inside the CBD No-Go cordon anyway.
I only mentioned it to him, but I'm sure that if I had pushed it they would have gladly switched it for me.

Hahaha, I used to fool around with that kinda stuff when I had a server running and posted pictures hosted on it.

Wait a minnit, you're talking about someone else hosting their pic from their own server. Reverse process.

Are you running port scans on someone's home server now?

Oh, wait, you're talkin' about Razor's pic. That IP is internal doesn't do you all that much good. I guess I already knew his location, so no big whoop there. SSID is an interesting tidbit, but you could get that by wardriving by his casa.

Thanks. Is that anything like the ancient Chinese proverb, "man who goes to bed with itchy butt wakes up with stinky finger"?

This is pretty neat, but I don't think it would work with deeper wheels.

Damn! I looked around on the site so that I didn't have to ask a dumb question but couldn't find it.

Meh.

Someone called wanting my blood. They must be getting desperate; I don't have a rare type.
