Damn nature you scary. I found a brown widow spider in my bedroom once and almost burned the house down.

Today I feel like crap. I don't often leave the office once I have arrived but today might be that exception. I feel hungover, but without the awesome drinking part the night before.

Today I found this great video of Carleton when he was younger.

Last night a cyclist was struck and killed in Chicago. Reading this article about him basically makes me cry. It's like the perfect description of me and most of my friends: "loves bikes, loves Chicago, rides safely."

It's looking like Critical Mass tomorrow will be in his honor, I'll probably ride it at least for a bit.

Cars, man, why?

Kaz, I'd ride too if I was local. Hearing about a cyclist death is like hearing of a death in one's extended family. Totally sucks for everyone involved.

I can appreciate a good de-cluttering. Isn't it you who had that green kilo with the chrome fork? I wanted a kilo for a year after seeing yours.

I picked up some apparently pretty nice knobby 26" tires donated to the co-op yesterday. Today they are mounted and ready for some novice off-roading tomorrow.

for shore. that kilo was great to me but i'm definitely done with kilos. my second kilo is for sale now and i've only had it a few weeks, and it's way nicer than the green one ever was, even when it was black.
