Time, constant and always ticking has a funny way of distorting itself in our memoriesl. We say our kids grow up too fast or that the Dot Com bubble seems like ages ago, yet there are people alive in America today who grew up without planes or cars, let alone satellite, microwaves, and iPods. The [...]

Thanksgiving

It’s that time of year again. It’s our annual pilgrimage. Just as the grizzlies of Yellowstone migrate to the upper elevations of the Absaroka in search of hearty pine nuts before winter takes hold, we humans too have a migration. Our migration comes in many forms but the end result is the same. Planes, trains, [...]
Nature > Folgers > Me

At the expense of throwing the defibrillator at this blog (see last post) I have to say that 7am MST is way too early to be using a plunger. A Folgers induced Vesuvius rocked the early morning silence on my block. It’s just as well though, I couldn’t sleep in. I had dreams of wolves and bears. [...]
Stoked to hear there are woofs where I ride. Probably will spend the weekend riding the foothills using a lamb shank as my seat cushion. I’m currently in a wind tunnel designing a helmet whose air turbulence causes the high pitched whine of a dying coyote. My first assumption was that this was the a [...]
For the life of me I can’t understand why anyone would ever go with a 4.7.

It’s May, the birds are chirping, flower are bloomin, and it’s time to go skiing this morning. On the snow by 8 I toured up a ridge. A veritable ghost-town. No other cars on the highway and no snowmobiles to be heard. I had the mountains to myself. About 200 yards up the hill I [...]
How about Politician Reform?

Let me start this post by saying I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed. Now, with that disclaimer out in the open the headlines in the paper continue to shock me. Let’s break down four headlines in the same local paper on the same day…I had to laugh at the comedy of errors. 1: [...]

Every now and then you have a ride that you’ll remember for a while. A ride when the weather, the bike, the stamina, and the setting all kick some serious ass. My DIY projects were thwarted by faulty plumbing parts. The 80 degree partly cloudy weather also curb stomped my home improvement ambition. A few [...]
Census

Got my Census today….this is going to be great. Wherever I go my Census will go with me. Reminds me of the days of My Buddy. Wherever I go, my Census and Me!!!…..My Census won’t be used for “counting every man, woman, and child.” Instead I’ll utilize it as toilet paper, a napkin, a coffee [...]

I got owned last night. My closet dropped me like a call on an AT&T cellie. Apparently I still put on my sweats like a 5 year old. I set them on the ground, put each foot in, grab the waist band. Then I squat down building tension. In a sudden move I burst [...]
