maybe 40 minutes? all the hard stuff was already together (fork, crank, etc,) 10 min to unpack 20 min to put together (wheels on,, seat on, handlebars on, pedals on) 10 minutes to adjust to "close enough" to ride. Competative cyclist offers a "ready to ride" option for about $100 more that due to dimensions must come on a 18 wheeler UPS truck. I can't imagine a more terrible way to waste $100.
Younger guys, Do the engineering thing it is worth it. CHE if possible. |
Nick Drake killed himself in 1974. He was an obscure folksy Brit pop non-star. Then Volkswagen used his song 'Pink Moon' in a commercial in 2000. After which Nick Drake sold more albums than he had in the 26 years since his death in about a year. His haunting music is now on a new AT&T spot. It's a shame such beautiful music is used in such a blatantly commercial manner, but whatever turns Mr. Drake on to more people. Check him out you friggin pathetic weenies.

One good thing about the flood is that it has hit Titans stadium. Hopefully they'll take a wrecking ball to that thing and move far away.

CHE - Chemical Engineering
ME - Mechanical Engineering CE- Civil Engineering BME/BE - Biomedical/Bioenineering EE/ECE - Electrical/ Electrical and Computer Engineering (sometimes Computer is by itself) Optics (only some schools) ^^ I count as real engineering...they have crap like envirormental engineering too, but it is just stuff a CHE could do better. Whatever you do don't major in history and english ;) |
