The Led Zep rig is pretty advanced. Sign up for the Stern Insider and the machine has a QR code reader built in that tracks your stats. Maybe someday they'll put in that **** that just automatically senses your phone, could be tricky due to the proximity of machines though.
There is a retro machine in the house (Pabst Blue Ribbon/Red Fang (Portland, OR rocknroll heros), '60s style with 2" flippers. And there are two 20th century machines: F-14 Tomcat and Stars. I never play those though. All the other ones are full blown 21st century machines.

yes - try reduced file size

TCM features Oscar nominated and winning films leading up to the ceremony. They kept me going in rehab last year.

I had a chance to drive by the "scene of the incident" yesterday. Holy devastation Batman! I'll try and get a picture, I couldn't chance it with all the chaos. There were already multiple road and lane closures for road work. Maybe I'll ride the Gravel bike down there for photos

Several years ago, I was staying in Panama Beach and it was 50º. I bundled up for a bike ride and passed a small park where a guy wearing shorts and a wife beater t-shirt was waxing an old enormous Lincoln. I checked the plates as I rode by and they were Minnesota tags.

I totally don't get the shorts in cold weather thing. There just too many more comfortable ways to say "I'm a fool."

For the Tuesday ride we usually drive to friend's house and ride from there. Today when I pulled the Seven out of my car I noticed the crank was hard to turn. I haven't ridden that bike since the deep water crossings 2 weeks ago and it turned out the bearing on the drive side was stuck and was turning in the cup. Campagnolo Ultra Torque bearings are pressed on to the crank spindles which are part of the arms. One bolt goes through the spindle to join the halves.
My friend had a 10mm Allen and I pulled it apart and soaked the bearing with WD 40 and forced it to turn with pliers. Seemed ok after that so I slapped it back together and we rode 45 miles with no issues. I suppose I should replace the bearing or something.

Weight back down today to a smidge below 145 - yay. Even had wine w dinner too (we usually skip on Tuesdays).
Day off work on PFL so it means more posting from me . Ton of stuff to do around the house, but I'm most excited about trying to find time to tune the suspension on my new MTB. SIL coming in an hour or so to visit and take care of baby, so that's my time to do personal stuff.
Also have a haircut and troubleshooting some home electrical on tap. But, my biggest chore on these days is trying to have more hands-on time with baby so that Liz gets a break.

oh - and we get to navigate our first homeowner's insurance claim, yay. Leak from under the upstairs toilet caused some rotting through the floorboard, and leaking onto the lower level. Abatement guys already gone, but now there is a floorboard to repair, plumbing to fix, drywall to replace, tile to re-do, and related cleaning when its all done. So much fun. I joked with Liz that we should just call the landlord to deal with it - those days are over

Yeah, sucks. Brother in law is well connected around here (does HVAC) so we trust the plumbing and construction references - it's mostly the insurance claim that is new to use as homeowners (AAA)

Shorts on a sunny 50 degree day with a sweatshirt is sometimes very pleasant.
