Re: Unbreakable, the people I know who really like it are deep into the comic book/super hero thing. Must be like with Kevin Smith's "Dogma." The combination of him and the cast convinced me to see it the day it was released. I was, like, wut? But many people I know who were raised Catholic thought it was great. +1. And I would love it if someone would make Lamb by Christopher Moore into a movie... That's a shame about Split. I too was hoping he got over himself and just make a straightforward good movie without all of the corny devices. Glad I didn't spend the money for the theater. |

In other news, kitty has not been himself the last few weeks. He was scheduled for his monthly lymphoma checkup this morning. Initial blood work revealed his red cell count has dropped from 34 last month to 24, leaving him anemic after he had been going in the opposite direction for months. He's having an ultrasound this afternoon. Have to wonder if this is the beginning (or middle) of the end.

Oh no, I am getting myself sucked into the latest "average speed" thread in the 41.
No good will come of it. None. |

The fact that you two (3?) posted in an avg. speed thread means your Fred membership card should be arriving in the mail soon. Whatever you posted has no bearing on your newly attained Fred life membership.

Also, I think that I have an idea of [MENTION=25227]Velo Vol[/MENTION]'s depressing cycling isolation - not a single Flyby on any of my Strava'd stroller walks. :(

I meant to post that in the avg speed thread. :o

I feel like I've made the grade. I no longer feel the need to go back and read every post.

I'm riding the open paves that were waiting for me here. I like them, after two short rides. Light as a feather too.

I have this little paralyzed dog that I did surgery on Monday afternoon.

It was a difficult surgery and I had no better luck than the first surgeon so I resorted to a salvage procedure that usually works but given the severity of this dog's symptoms, I was not very optimistic. Then kind of a rough time post-op, several not-insurmountable things have gone wrong and the dog refusing to eat. We all start to wonder if its worth going through all this for the dog, since the odds for recovery were looking so slim. But it was the wife's dog and she died last year, the guy wants to do everything for her within reason.
Yesterday he wondered about euthanasia and I told him that wouldn't be wrong. But two spinal surgeries in two weeks, my opinion is, after all that, we should give her a reasonable amount of time to recover. So today she is moving her hind legs again and ate her breakfast. Home by the weekend. :) |

And the answer to your question is obvious. |

The ToC is going up Mt Baldy today. Looks like fun.

As people get bigger, their ratio of surface to volume goes down. i.e. bigger people have less frontal surface per pound than smaller people. So if power goes up with size, big people get an advantage on the flats, where aerodynamics is more important than weight. This is the reason you see comparatively large people, such as Cancerella dominating on the flats, but getting dropped by the little climber guys in the big mountains. |
