Bike Forums - Addiction LXV

No need to ask me. I am happy to answer without being asked. As if you didn't know that.

I think emanating prose does not make you a wannabe intellect. It makes you an Addictionite...or a modern "poet".

Seriously, feel better.

I also had an EKG and a chest x-ray.

I warm up on that road right next to Sewers, at the bottom of that hill you're standing on. I then head west and mess around on Lookout Mountain.

Not the worst view I've ever seen. Lucky.

From the office during my lunch break?

What could go wrong?

I get the feeling that I must look like a slot machine hitting the jackpot, lights flashing and bells ringing, whenever I walk in to a doctor's office. $$$

EKG, blood tests, chest x-ray, and orders for a sleep apnea test. :foo:

Can neither confirm nor deny this.

For the pedants, "neither confirm nor deny" is a glomarization. That term comes from an escapade of clandestine soviet submarine salvage in the 70s.

I learned y'all something today.

Beats me. a friend of mine was checked recently after his doc just happened to notice a bullseye bite on his arm. It was negative, though.

I rode it today, but not nearly as long as I wanted to. Once I started heading south on Anna Maria Island, I realized that the winds coming from this new formed tropical system were going to slow me down and make me late back to the house (and thus piss off my family). I wanted 30-40 but ended up with just 21, including a bunch of sight seeing.

So I dun rode, and it was better than nothing.

Also, vacay is over tomorrow. Goes by sooooo fast. And then I have to go into the office at 2am as soon as I get back. Ugh. I got some better bird pics at the docs/seafood place tonight. Will post later.

Tropical system? Huh, that might explain it. After waiting in line for four hours (as expected) to get new license plates, I drove home through TORRENTIAL rain. I could barely see the lines I needed to stay between. Just now stopped. I need to run out and check the rain gage. We have a lake out back.

Your rectum is reck'd?

3.7"

We arrived home, last week, to 3.5". We average 20" per year. Might be a little over this year, as it was last. Maybe those averages are old news.
