I was in Milwaukee tonight. Those are David Bazan's feet. by miss_kaz, on Flickr

Super tiny venue, very intimate and chill show. It was great.
This show was at Cactus Club wasn't it? That's my all-time favorite venue in MKE. I saw Russian Circles there a while back. There's a rad bar across the street called Palomino, too.

Win8 IMO is as good as XP was when I updated to it from '00.

Took the day off at work to go volunteer at the co-op. Was strongly tempted by a Bridgestone mountain bike. Camping season is only 5 months away...

I'm strongly tempted by one also. Used to have an MB-2 but didn't like it as much as these MB-3s. I must have cheap taste.

Flite isn't doing it for you?


MTB is done, literally spent the whole freaking day working on it. It is a killer ride, super fun. It will be tons more when I get better wheels, another pair of SPDs, and maybe a different saddle. I am considering going SS with the current Uniglide wheel, maybe when I get a new pair.

people are freaking out around here after the police had to shoot two wild boars that wandered into a residential area. as if Godzilla had gone on a rampage.

my buddies and i travel to take boar that size (200-250 pounds) with pit bulls and spears.

told my coworkers: "y'all forgot where meat comes from".

Time to start a new sport: bike hunting. It's like a cross between bike polo and being a badass caveman. Fixed gear mountain bikes and spears.

I'd lost the keys to my Fahgettaboudit U lock last year. I recently sent the lock to Kryptonite to get it rekeyed. Today I got a box from them.

I was just expecting my old lock with a set of new keys. Instead, they sent me a brand new one.

Hell. Yeah. Kryptonite.
