Bionic Man (sort of)

The Orthopedic specialist suggested I have a plate placed over my clavicle. The ill fitted jig saw puzzle still looks the same. As amazing as the human body is, it apparently has some difficulty auto-magically realigning bones on it's own. It's an out patient surgery so …

sticks & stones

Went for ride in Annandale Park yesterday. The ride up was good. Beautiful day and feeling strong. But the ride down proved to be a bit more challenging. Coming off a berm, a little too hard on the brakes and my bike slid out from under me to the left. I went right …

Famn Dlaggers

About a month ago we decided to foster kittens. This time of year, also known as kitten season, a lot of them end up getting put down. So we thought the least we could do is take in a few of the fuzzies and find them homes. I mean, there kittens. They're cute. How hard …

Mr. Toledano

There's a lot of good photography out there. But every once in awhile I come across great photography. The kind of imagery that is so unique, creative & bold that it drops your jaw, kicks you in the face and then gives you a big 'ol smooch. Mr. Toledano's work is very …

Bike Month

I remember my dad teaching me to ride a bike. I think it was a Diamond Back BMX and a little too big for me. I fell a few times but up and peddling in no time. And ever since then one bike or another has always played counter part to my shenanigans. A GT Performer in …

Come get yer Kittens!

My step mother once had a dream that after being pregnant for 9 months she ended up having kittens and was little disappointed after all the effort. But we've got actual kittens. The kind that have big adorable eyes. The kind that run and jump and play. The kind that …

The Impossible Art Of Li Wei

ISO50

If you're not familiar with Scott Hansen let me be the first to introduce you. I've been a fan of his design work for the last few years. Drenched in a 70's style that few have the ability to pull off in a contemporary environment without looking kitsch or clich

CONEY

A wonderful set of pics from Coney Island.

FAMILY TREE

If you haven't seen Geni.com yet you should check it out. I came across this yesterday and was instantly hooked. A very slick, easy to use web based family tree. As you add family members (and their email address) they're invited to add to the tree as well. Simple, …

GARAGE SALE

We were hosts to a garage sale over the weekend. Brenda, a high school girl here in SR, lost her mom to breast cancer. So she's been busy raising money to battle the disease. The sale was a huge success. She raised close to $800. The buyers were swarming from the wee …

things to note

I broke 1000 miles on my bike! As most two wheeled expeditions have consisted of 20 mile jaunts I'm rather pleased with the accomplishment. I've been riding to work and/or at lunch and occasionally on the weekends. The challenge with getting longer rides in is the time …
