A real Christmas story...

UPtown Cycles: Egg nog and Blondes

Hello life. How's it goin? Good? Great. Well, this was a pic from last nite at Uptown Cycles (Donovan aka Cycle Pimp's new pad). It was quite a good time with excellent egg nog, bikes up for drawing, and that mello bike crowd that I've grown to love. (i.e. flower couple, malaysia gal, dude named stuart)...but where was my swell italian pal damiano?? hmm.....well, anyways, go to http://www.uptowncycles.com if you want to hop in on some rides, always a terrific way to spend an evening

JFK Speech at Yale University, 1962

Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. Mythology distracts us everywhere. For the great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie - deliberate, contrived, and dishonest - but the myth - persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

My First Real Purchase!

Well, it has been a two year search and, finally, the result is in: my new car is a...duh da duh daaaaaaa 2007 Lexus IS250! I get it in a week. I still can't believe I bought a car. It's an exciting feeling and one that puts a lot of responsibility on the shoulders. Sort of a feeling of growing up, coming of age, etc etc.

Sadly, this requires the giving up of my current baby, Carolina (said with a Argentine accent). Seven years, the longest relationship I've ever had, is coming to an end soon. I plan on selling her with only 48k on the odometer. She's never given me much trouble and has been faithful. If anyone wants to gently take her from me...please let me know.

Ahh...the bittersweet moments of life. I guess that's just the way the ball bounces eh?
