Get aerobars. You can cover the cig with your fingers so it doesn't go out, and take drags without leaving your efficiently aero tuck. Hypothetically, of course.

Don't encourage me. :(

No need to imagine. It is the official New York State bird.

So that girl keeps texting me, but never anything positive, always berating me or trying to guilt trip me while claiming not to. Consensus of female friend and female cousin is this girl really likes drama and attention and will never get better. You guys were right.

Grumble.

The Star Wars rule has worked for me.

i don't get that either. after watching our neighborhood flood, and being cut off from everything because all the streets around us were under a foot of water, but we stayed dry because we're on a hill, i will never buy a house not on a hill. actually i learned that when i was a kid, as our house was basically at one of the highest elevations in town.

i get that garageband is like the four-track of days gone by, and it's perfect for exactly what pcad is doing, but just yesterday my mastering engineer friend posted liner notes from an old album that he worked on with a long list of studios that don't exist anymore. then he posted a pic of a mastering compressor that cost more than my car. i feel so badly for my music industry friends.

same here. except i've weaned myself off of coffee and now i'm useless until 10AM. i'm sure even just hopping on the trainer for 15 minutes would help some.

Run away from this one. She sounds like nothing but trouble.

Pretty good. Not nearly the best though. And certainly not worth headaches.

I had resolved to not let this turn into a SA situation. Would like him back in the thread though.

LesterOfPuppets 02-01-13 10:47 AM

I rode the fixie in today and was way overdressed. Musta been about 48° or so.

Happy Friday all!

I heard the song, "Psychotic Girl" just now. Appropriate for Solo and Humbug.

LesterOfPuppets 02-01-13 11:01 AM

This place is an absolute zoo this morning.

Office work is pretty much an insane undertaking.

Yes, but it's not something you actually have to announce....
As far as the MOD stuff goes, I did mention it to the head man here during our friendly chat a couple of days ago, however he never really responded back...I might be going out on a limb here, but I'm thinking he's thinking that maybe "Perma banned" might just be a better place for me...

I do both the coffee and the morning ride. fresh coffee from freshly ground beans with my muesli for breakfast. commute into work by bike. gets the morning off to a good start and helps keep me sane.

LesterOfPuppets 02-01-13 11:59 AM

Same here. A fully awakened state requires a ride and a coffee. I prefer the ride pre-coffee myself.

Coffee rules all. When in doubt, coffee is the answer.

That's the summary. Someone will undoubtedly try and 'ftfy'.

stevebiker 02-01-13 12:12 PM

OK, someone clue me in.

What the hell are these "addiction" discussions all about?

At first, I thought "Addict" was a particular bike that everyone was raving about. Or like the "Cult of CAAD" thread. But my admittedly short search did not turn up an Addict bike.

So -- what the hell are these addiction discussions about? Do we have that many heroin users here?

Correct.

truckstop 02-01-13 12:14 PM

i've thought about trying to get my old job back, the commute would be nice by bike... minus the mildly gnarly neighborhood i'd have to get through.

commuting by bike doesn't work so well though when you have a 10' slipper commute.
