I'm supposed to be on the trainer.

I am procrastinating.

Nice Billy.

FWIW, those jerseys are really quite nice. Well worth the dollars asked.

Mine mostly get stolen.

The capacity of this place to exceed even my own lofty dumbness expectations is a source of continual wonder.

I did finally wrap up the 'I Hope' song, final lyrics:


Old man boards a bus in Portland and heads for the Rio Grande

At the end of the day doesn’t seem like it’s much of a plan

He’s got a friend to meet on a lonesome Mexican beach

At the end of the day seems like a bit of a reach

I hope I can make it across the border
I hope the pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams
I hope to see my friend and shake his hand

I hope, I hope, I hope


Hope and redemption

You can find it at times even when you think that you won’t

Sometimes it’s there at the end of your rope

I hope, I hope, I hope


Old man boards a bus in Portland and heads for the Rio Grande

At the end of the day doesn’t seem like it’s much of a plan

It’s just our favorite movie but as far as I can see

If there’s hope for him, there’s hope for you and me

I hope I can make it across the border
I hope the pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams
I hope to see my friend and shake his hand

I hope, I hope, I hope

I hope, I hope, I hope

A couple of days away from road riding has been beneficial here, feel freshened up now.

Life becomes dull when you lose your sense of wonder. You're welcome.

Someone should write a song about that.

Velo Vol 02-27-13 11:53 PM

At the end of the day "at the end of the day" is a weird phrase to use in conversation. Or songwriting.

rjones28 02-28-13 12:03 AM

I clear my desk and turn off my computer at the end of the day.


What's so weird about that?

LesterOfPuppets 02-28-13 12:05 AM

It is what it is.

Nothing, if you are using it to describe something that literally happens at the end of a day.

rjones28 02-28-13 12:10 AM

What do you have against idioms?

Blanket statement. I assess them on a case-by-case basis, based on their merits.

It's not cliche in song writing yet, only on CNBC.

That kraut in Rome is history.

Pope Pcad I is all that remains.
