Yeah, there's a lot of that but it's still a fun place for me to visit every 10 years or so.

The ones that bug me are when a character is telling his toddler son about their money troubles and he breaks out into a woeful sorrow number. Or when Tom is telling his buddies how much he digs a girl and they all start singing and snapping their fingers in celebration.

We get 7/1 (Canada Day) off work because the CEO is Canadian, so I went on a 4hr/70mi z2 ride, got a haircut, and went shopping for some new jeans and polos. It's been a pretty productive day.
God bless Canada!

Bailed on the Wednesday night group ride. My old shoulder injury started acting up; rode about a mile and couldn't see riding 30+ more miles with this agony. Time to see the doctor, I guess...

Here's an example. I was dining at my go-to pizza place a few blocks away in the French Quarter, where they usually pump classic Motown over the sound system. Two NOPD officers sitting at the next table. Marvin Gaye comes on. One of the NOPD's closes his eyes, throws his head back, and starts up...
MOTHER, MOTHER, THERE'S TOO MANY OF YOU CRYING
BROTHER BROTHER BROTHER, THERE'S TOO MANY OF US DYING
YOU KNOW WE GOT TO FIND A WAY
FOR UNDERSTANDING, HERE TODAY...
True story.

Dude, take my word for it. Come sit on my front porch if you don't believe me.

Leaving for Santa Fe today, to go the opening performance of the Opera season. I've only been to the opera once before, and that one time was enjoyable. People knock it a lot but if you like seeing things on stage like plays or musicals, you'd like opera too.
Wish I would have time to rent a bike to go pedaling around! Instead it'll be eating and shopping and lazing about, I think, since I'm only there for 3 days.

Interesting! Was just in Santa Fe this past week and randomly met and chatted with one of the Opera directors while at 2nd Street Brewery.

Headed down to Fiesta for 5x5' at 112% before the day's festivities began... bad idea. It was too crowded with cars.
Instead I did one hot lap (10'), then my 1hr coastal loop, hammering when I felt like it. Ended with one hard effort 130%/3.5min up Balboa.
