Sounds like the flu. I like http://www.boironusa.com/products/oscillococcinum/ Any health food market sells it. Hope you feel better soon.

Me too.

Check out the new Edifice Watches from Casio. They're like $350-$550 or so.

I also replaced the battery in my Seiko Mickey Mouse watch, removed the battery from my Swatch (original from the 80's) but couldn't find a battery for it. I tried replacing the battery in my Relic but I managed to break it in the process. :(

I'm going to risk another lengthy ride on my worn to crap rear tire on my Zipp 404 tomorrow.

Pcad lives right on the Velo EdgeŽ.

I only have two pieces of Ti - my wedding ring and my watch

http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8199/8...2840ce8578.jpg

Both are strong, light weight, vertically compliant. The watch is from a Swiss manufacturer of turntable cartridges ("needles" for you heathens) that range from about $250 to about $5000. They gave it to me on loan and promptly forgot about it. It happens.

Trying to decide if we're going to stop off at Louisville or Cincinnati on the way to visit the in-laws. Talk about a win-win.

Good websites.

Learn how to read labels and what's really in pet foods.


I always gave probiotics each morning with their meal. It puts the good bacteria into their system and is great for their immune system. I looked at the ingredients and alfalfa is in dinovite - dogs can be allergic to it.

We've been feeding him the Lamb and Rice (so I guess not grain free?) variety of Purina 1 since about forever (he's almost 12). He also eats anything that gets near the edge of the counter/dining room table/stove/grill shelf, etc. The dinovite seems to be working.

Doc! I thought surely you were much above such a primitive ritual.

Say it isn't so, doc! Say it isn't so!

My cat is a hunter outdoors but seems to think he is off duty indoors.

It's so, very so. But purely from the medical tape sticking issue. Oh and the wind aerodynamic perspective. Also my private masseuse prefers the smooth touch. Really though, I must confess fredly poseur tendencies.

I like mine. Daily wear for over 15 years.

A flat when it is cold out is not fun.

My cat is a psycho killer cat. Really psycho schizo affective disorder. Haven't seen a chipmunk since we moved in. Not a mouse that was living either. Just heads, feet, disembowelings, decapitations. The horror, the horror, the horror.

Not all of them. If your rig has Avid Shorty brakes then they should work on those, however.
