I'll probably pooch over for 5:30 or so.

And if anyone has a french threaded bike in 58 to 61cm lemme know. I just discovered my new Hatta headset is french-threaded...

Dual pivots? We got dura-compatible ones. The one that comes with holder the dual compound brake pads and then an additional 2x salmon pads. We also gots canti koolstops. And the "campi" refills. I think we've run out of dura-salmon ones.

P.S Hope to see some of you guys at CM tomorrow.

Haha! I met Mike in Kensington, and he mentioned this. Good luck to you, sir.

does anyone here have a 56cm iro jamie roy?
or know if anyone stocks them in town?

wanna test out the sizing before i order one.

Good dog man thats crazy talk!
*Cheers Keith i'll drink one for you.(or 4)

Always a good excuse to get another bike. I think I'm going to have to get a loft bed too, though...

have a drink for me fellas; i can't make it tomorrow night as it's go-time at work as usual on a friday. too bad, i like bettys, it's an old george brown hangout. say bye to keith for me (or something more appropriate than "bye"...).

Too much...chocolate cake...can't move. Someone ...get me... milk, and TJ, I need coffee.

you don't drink coffee, do you? ;)

Can someone repost the pertinent details for the bar thing real quick?

Toronto Star article on pipe bomb ******bag: http://www.thestar.com/News/GTA/article/281334.

So, the emotional toll on everyone who thought there was a bomb in the area (general citizens and people who had to respond to the threat), the financial cost of all the local businesses being shut down and obviously the AIDS FUNDRAISER being shut down ... all to make a statement of what, people are scared of being blown up?

When I was in photography school at least the bull**** art just hung on a wall.

Cling to that artist statement like a ****ing life raft, kid and just keep telling yourself it was worth it.

"I didn't expect anything as crazy as what went down," said Jonsson, a third-year integrated media student at the Ontario College of Art and Design.

My favourite part of his logic was: " Then he went to the nearest pay phone, dialled the ROM's main number and keyed random numbers into its automated staff directory.

"There is not a bomb by the entrance of the museum," Jonsson said he told the unknown woman who answered."

I'm not a reactionary 'fry him' type of person, but if some idiot is so stupid that he did that not thinking something crazy would happen, he should be given two years of full time work with the AIDS charity that he screwed over with his stunt.

This is the most disturbing quote:

I'm surprised I didn't see the words 9/11 terrorist/insurgent/mission accomplished in the article once.
Somnambulant: http://www.thestar.com/SpecialSectio...article/264679

"The university's 100 per cent tuition waiver for staff and their children, worth about $4,500 per year, is an especially prized benefit."

Can you adopt me please so I can finish out my $9k x 2 ? :) I guess university staff doesn't include the janitorial staff eh. Wouldn't want them to get educated.

Yes, it's an overreaction for police to not trust a note on a bomb that says it's not a bomb. "**** guys, nevermind - it says it's not live! *whew*"


Ya think?! Did you just figure this one out or something?! What an absolute moron.

EDIT: haha BF won't let me post an image with wh0re in the filename

hahaha... What a bag of ****** that guy is, wtf was he thinking he'd not get some serious reaction *sigh*. Ah well, gl to him in court today ;)

Rob:
Betty's
240 King E, at Princess ~6pm or earlier to grab a table. Apparently there was talk of getting something away from the bar area, I guess just look around 'til you see someone. Please correct if I'm wrong.

I've got to bring the trailer back tonight, a little sad I have to take my big'n'heavy MTB for the task ;)

I'll be there tonight, probably around 6:30. Don't drink all the beer before I get there!

Certainly a step up from my previous employer.. Our UK office had a (literally) 100% turnover rate. :P

I think that tuition thing applies to ALL full-time, appointed staff. So it would apply to a full-time, "permanent" janitor. I think part-time/contract folks get some sort of tuition break calculated based on the amount of time they work or something as well. I might be wrong on both accounts, however. :)

Keith - Sorry I can't make it to your party tonight - I'll be on my way to Ottawa by the time you guys hit the bar. I may not have been a patron for as long as some folks 'round here but I most certainly appreciate everything you've done for me in the relatively short time I've known you and it is sad to see you go... BUT... I'm glad to see you moving on from something that you weren't into any more. Here's to bigger and better things - I'll pour a little juice on the concrete for Cavern Cycles.

Everyone give it up for Keith!

(Note: I'm enjoying the thought of all of you, at work or wherever you are, clapping and giving the man a standing O)

I hope they fry that little prick who planted the "Bomb". He's totally pooched. To say he didn't expect a problem but he pre-consulted a legal office? Nice try. They should put a replica gun in his hand (sorry, sculpture) and cut him loose in the local precinct and videotape that. The only thing he can say is "It's art!" ..... grrr.. And thanks, local OCAD profs, for not considering if this dimwit had left his "Sculpture" behind...

And with regards to Bettys, it is a local hangout for George Brown, the Sun etc. so may be pretty packed. I'll try to get a table visible from the door, but it has two discrete rooms and a second floor. If you don't see us, just keep looking. I'm going to try to be there for 5:30.

*pours out part of his 40oz on the rug*

...

*goes to find a rag before the gf finds out*

From what i've heard, the kid who did this bomb thing is the same kid who was arrested and in the media not too long ago for doing a 'performance' piece where he threw up on actual artwork in the AGO.

I'm interested in knowing who the teachers were that got suspended and how much they knew about this before hand.

I had a teacher there who worked for adbusters for a couple years and assigned "culture jamming" projects.

1) One of my bandmates works at OCAD. Gonna get the juicy gossip from him on Sunday. :)
2) My visit to Ottawa is off, so I'll see you guys tonight. Cam, I'm gonna aim for around 5:30 as well. I'll PM you my mobile number in case you don't have it and there's any trouble.
3) Anyone doing any rides this weekend? I'm gonna try and get out for a ride tomorrow and/or Sunday morning methinks.
4) TrafficJammer: how are those winter cycling shoes treatin' you?

Do you figger you guys will still be around Betty's after CM? Like 7:30-8ish?
