yeah i don't really like the flyer either, but i kind of doubt that will have any impact on the race itself. i'm going to go, i'm going to try and have fun. that's all.

I have a question: Does anyone in Portland know a fellow named Jordan who is vegan, owned a Casati but recently sold it?

Nice man. He was my roomate at UBI.

Do you have some way I can contact him? He sent me his myspace when we were in school, but it never showed up on mine. I need to ask him about some Vegan double toe straps that he is planning to make.

I think we're finally to that cold, dry part of winter which = the best for night rides.

Yessss.... except I like it when it's slightly wet, so much fun. Skidding through turns is excitement.

humancongereel, I think I saw your bike outside of a certain party last night. But maybe I was just drunk and confused... vbmenu_register("postmenu_3429023", true);

nah, i was supposed to get one with a friend, but he sorta delayed talking to the landlord and i'm sort of in between **** now (looking for one of those temporary week-to-week places downtown). he's found another one...and this time i'm going to see if i can't get contact info from him and work things out myself. things falling through and leaving me in unpleasant situations like this can't happen. might as well just look for a studio apartment all to myself.

man you know the women do not talk to me. I've just been working (at the Gap?) and uh, being out of the cold. give me a call sometime though, jake lives a block or two away and i'm sure he'd be down to do something

PS not an emergency yet, but I'm going to need a place to live Feb.1, I'm nice and have 2 cats, they are also nice. so if anyones looking...
