Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Correct.

Left the house at 10 'til eight; got home at 10 'til midnight.

Mr. Jackson did a good job, once again.

I liked it. Mrs. rjones28 liked it, but the 3D gave her a headache.

The 3D seemed well done to me, but I haven't realy seen any 3D movies in the modern era.

OK, since everyone is still all hot and heavy about guns, I have a gun question: What's the difference between a "high-power" rifle and a regular rifle?
Is this a trick question?

The 3D was not necessary to the enjoyment of this movie. We'll see the 2nd part in 2D, to spare Mrs. rjones28 another headache.

My ole time favorite is A Christmas Story with Melinda Dillon, Darren McGavin and Peter Billingsley. Remember when Ralphie Parker only wanted an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action 200-shot Range Model Air Rifle and his mother thought that was too dangerous - he could shoot his eye out. It's now a Broadway play.

So I got a booty call txt from an ex girlfriend last night, a different one. She's never sent me anything like that. It was either amazing timing after the breakup, or actually kinda bad because I was a sleep when she sent it. The conspiracy theorist in me, says maybe her, and the crazy broad are in alliance somehow, and this is a test. To my knowledge they don't even know each other. When I woke up I replied "sounds good to me". Meaningless sex sounds like a good idea right about now. I have doubts my conspiracy theory. It's hard to believe they would join forces against me, but these women are crazy. I guess I'll see what happens when she wakes up. Even if it is a test, I don't think I would be doing anything wrong. It's over, we're friends, and I am free to do what I want now.

Could be. My sister and I actually were talking about how we think Sol is a double agent, and he was responsible for the final attack. I could see the love thing too, however.
