Well put. i saw some Johnny Walker in the LCBO with the expensive stuff. i didn't realize their blue label is $200! it must be that expensive becuase it's hard to get a blend the same every time. when are we doing this? i'm salivating...
in related news, in the same LCBO i happened on a bottle of canadian rye, it was a single malt and it sold for less than the cheap blended scotch. i was truly intrigued, i should have bought it, i forgot the name (no it's not wisers, it was an independant producer).

Yo Steeker I didn't know you were an amateur astronomer type guy...! Free tours at the observatory in Richmond Hill (I work there) !!

I used the DDO big eye a long time ago and we used to set up our stuff in the parking lot's till I went car free ( what do you do there??)

It's listed in the bikeweek guide. I think there's just going to be some booths around the grassy area near the bandshell plus a bbq and I assume bands playing. Just somewhere to chillax for the evening. Beats sitting around at home.

dude. You know some seriously hairy girls if you think a guy with a beard is girly. I just like the smell of wildflowers is alls..

Tour guide?

*shudder*

I'm going DT to mec bbl.

Johnny Walker Blue blows 90% of single malts out of the water any day of the week.

That is all.

I first have to go see eyefloater and check out the Brooks saddles and if it is not raining Ijust might go to the X with you for burgers and stuff but if we have to lock up the bikes I'll pass cause that Krypto U lock thing from Cavernmech got me worried about leaving my Pinnarelo locked well any of my bikes locked

Are you trying to start a toronto SS/FG BF smack down?

is it good? probably. is it worth $200? no f***king way. i bet none of us could tell which is which in a blind taste test.

DAM I heard about a(wandering eye's) tour guide up at the DDO on my astronomy mailing list is that you for real ??

I don't think you'll need to lock up. If necessary we can just keep an eye on each other's rides. I think eyefloater is going to swing by when he's done at 7:00 as well. I'll likely show up between 7:00 and 7:30 as well. My friend cuts my hair (she runs her "studio" in her apartment) so we usually wind up socializing and listening to music and stuff so it takes a while (appt is at 5:30).

That's it! next ride, i expect Somnabulant to be wearing a sundress and matching hat.

Maybe a nice pink polka dotted naugahyde thong. That somnambulant is dreamy!! *Giggle*

Depends on what you like from your whiskey. I am sure Blue is a fine whiskey.....I far prefer the uniqueness of single malts over blends. It's like Creemore vs Guiness....both good beers but the Guiness is far more unique.

um...creemore is more unique perhaps?

hey, he's no tramp! treat him like a lady. i expect he'll we wearing gloves too.

^^^^^^^^
I can't drink the blended stuff at all. Must be a good single malt.

What's this about the Kryptonite flat key locks?

Cavernmech's just fear mongering because he wants everyone else to use that ****ed up cable lock he always has wrapped around his waist. [serious note]I REALLY hope we don't have to go through another Kryptonite recall debacle.[/serious note]

I think I will ride down this evening as well.

I like the utilitarian look of the monster chain but I'd sure hate to carry it around.

those things are freaking heavy. i tried using one for a while, just about killed me to ride with. i don't know how those new york messengers do it.

seriously...it must be quite intimidating uncoiling that chain in front of offending motorist. I picked up the furget-about-it at Cycle Therapy, crazy heavy
Jeremy, what kinda of cheffing you specialize in? All the chefs I know all are wonderfully competent all around but they all have a zest or passion for something in particular.

It would start raining just as I start to go for a little cruise at lunch, wouldn't it? Of course, I was going to grab lunch someplace and as I was riding down Augusta I decided it would be nice to sit in the "window" (ie. opening) at Big Fat Burrito and read a book "outside" while sheltered from the rain. It was lurvly! And the rain died down enough after an hour that I barely got wet getting back to the office. Oh, and the burrito was decent also (first time there).
