I have no recollection of such an admittance. Show me the transcript.

So do you guys like my new Avatar? Thanks to kimconyc for the cool photos from Sunday. My team mates also enjoyed them.

RT 03-23-10 05:53 PM

Like the avatar, am disappointed that this thread is still alive after a month or so away. Good God man, we could use this thread as a source of fuel and solve the energy crisis.

No. Change it back. It is not up to snuff.

I will summon you all soon to plan and execute the Invasion and Conquest of the 33.









We will of course overwhelm them with vastly superior numbers and body weight. We will crush them. I mean physically, not their souls. Besides, anybody who is into amateur bicycle racing sold their soul a long time ago. I tried to, but like some of my eBay listings, there were no bids.

On that note, so UPS shipped my package at 12pm pacific time today, and for 2nd day air will it be here tomorrow or the following day?

It's UPS. Just pray the idiot who delivers it doesn't leave it outside your house in some way that virtually assures its destruction under your own car wheels.

mzeffex 03-23-10 06:18 PM

My house is about 100 feet from the curb - I think I'm good. I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of more bike schwag. Muahaha..

coasting 03-23-10 06:20 PM

when i'm not home, ups leaves my packages outside in the rain without anyone signing for it. Fedex do not do that.

My favorite UPS Classic was when I was in my basement office waiting for a $4,000 guitar to be delivered all day. I found it @ 6PM. The driver had leaned it up against my back office door, never rang the bell, and left it outside. A guitar. An expensive, fragile, sensitive to temperature and humidity guitar. All afternoon.

It was 12ºF that day.

God help me what a bunch of idiots some of those drivers are sometimes.

mzeffex 03-23-10 06:24 PM

They do the same for me, but put them in a plastic bag.

The wife just ended the bike upgrade. That's all I got.

Who would be dumb enough to run over a package sitting in the driveway?



Never mind.

This conversation needs to somehow be steered back to college basketball.

My guess is that rollin is more of a photography traditionalist, and that he doesn't like the lack of sharpness due to the multiple exposures (and the resulting motion blur) necessary for HDR photography. Me - I don't like the unrealistic hues typically created by the HDR process - I mean, who would ever be caught dead in blue kit with fuschia trim? What color is that in real life?
