Cleaned the drive train on the Addict last night. Man what a messy friggin job that is.

Oh by the way the Jets got the best DB in the draft. They also got that kick ass LB from Miami. The best defense in the NFL just got better.

Amusingly incorrect.

What's with everyone getting new wheels or even bikes?

But I'm not to be outdone; I'm awaiting my PBK two tyres + free tubes combo order.

Exciting!

Up and over Mt. Peter and Mt. Bonehead both ways again today. Ouch Redeaux.

I keep hoping the Greenwood Lake cop will write me up as I plunge past his radar trap @ 44 in the 30mph zone, but he doesn't even look up from his donut.

pcad. I entered a race tomorrow, 4/5 crit in trenton NJ you should come.

I went to the local practice crit yesterday to make sure I am up to it. The local thing is not sponsered by anyone and is cat1-5 guys and girls and freakin fast. for 18 glorious minutes I had an average of 26.4...then it rained which turned out to be an awesome excuse to not continue. I don't think the 4/5 guys will be going that fast tomorrow (I hope).

Nothing sounds better than the soft buzz of a clean drivetrain.

If I had his contact information I would forward your trite comment to him and urge him to issue you a traffic citation for traveling too slow on the roadway.

Ugh...next few weeks are going to suck. We are super busy...very good for a small paper mill...but it means we are running 7 days per week, 24 per day, until we complete the orders. We started a new schedule today...4-12 hour rotating shifts followed by 2 days off...rinse repeat. On 12 hour days today and the next three then 2 days off and 4 12 hour overnights...No riding on the work days is a major ugh but the paychecks are mighty sweet and hopefully will be back to a nice 5 day work week before too long.

Odd to whine about too much work in this economy but all work and no play makes me cranky lol.

The economy has turned. Hard. I can see it in our business. Soon it should start helping the long term unemployed. Not soon enough of course, but better late than never.

We've had some seriously horrible luck this month....

50+ mph winds blew in our garage door, our 10 year-old deep freezer that stores about a month's worth of food is on the verge of death, and our hot water heater has now started leaking (not from a repairable source, e.g. intake pipes).

oi. :bang:

Sounds about right. Wait til the other shoe drops, then you'll really have something to whine about.

CNBC rocks. Erin Burnett, Becky Quick. Yum. And a rant from Santelli is always fun, sort of like a Phil Hellmuth meltdown.

There are so many signs it's turning it's rather convincing, not only on CNBC. I'm seeing it in my investments and big time in the business. Very different than last year, which was like Night of the Living Dead. I'd say it's 1/3-1/2 way back. The investments are all the way back and then some.

The investments have roared back for a couple of key reasons: companies fired so many people and cut costs so hard they are super profitable now, and stocks had sold off to preposterous End of Days levels by March of 2009, which is when I started loading up the truck. Caterpillar for $26? It's about $68 now. Apple for <$90? Closed at $270+ today. It goes on and on, every decent stock out there doubled in value, some tripled. But those companies are going to start hiring; in point of fact they already have started.

Let's make this thread longer, faster by saying STICK WITH CRAMER.
