Don't forget that the individual ingredients most likely do not maintain their individual properties when mixed together. Mixing them together produces a chemical reaction (constantly going -...

Thanks, Drtgirl!

Life circumstances brought me here, and I am very grateful. I live in Heaven. :) It's truly amazing how little most Michiganders know about the Upper Peninsula, but we're not...

I started the year off right with a snowshoe journey. I also took a little walk, yesterday, and got some awesome pictures along Lake Superior.

Yeah, that was me. I skied from 4:20 to 6:10. I twisted my ankle earlier today, so skiing was a little painful after about 10K.

It's probably a slow-twitch (endurance) vs fast-twitch (sprint) muscle thing. You're going to compensate for the climb by holding back a little more. Your HR will get up, sure, but your leg muscles...

Skierchickie,

Was that you I saw at Tech, tonight? I was wearing the blue and black jacket with the gray cyclocross hat and the gray neck gator that hid my face. :D I like to keep my face warm....

I've done two with very little experience. It took me about 6 hours for both. Don't be afraid to walk.

I go outside and play with my friends. I'm not a fan of reality tv.

Irulan -

Those pictures are great! It's kind of funny, though. That's a "day in the life" in my area...the land of four-wheel drive.

I would place more value on the cost of utilities, if anything is covered, neighbors, privacy, etc.

As far as living next to a rail-to-trail, absolutely not, but this is something that needs to...

Yes.

I find that I generally can eat what I want during cycling season, but I have to put in about 8 to 10 hours a week. Also, the part about sports gels and such is also something to consider. If I'm...

I've always had guys friends who I loved dearly, had a great bond with, but *never* loved them or wanted them in that manner.

Who you are attracted to is not something you can control. You...

Bunny ear canal sounds about right since we have so much wax floating around here. ;)

I prefer to call it the bunny ear. We live in the bunny ear. ;)

Tech is AWESOME! I've gotten out for three or four skis over the last two weeks - prepping for finals, so not much time or...

I love Hugh Jackman. :D Love a lot of his movies and he's not so much a pretty boy. Yeah. I'd take that.

I know I'm two months late replying to this, ;) but here I am!

* I started a bike blog last March and I do post in it regularly.
* I usually get about 20-30 unique hits per day.
* It is a...

Yeah! If I have $50 to spare, I am going to join in on that and promote it through my blog. I hope people donate. I think it'd be an awesome team effort. :-)

Elden's post, today, made me practically sob. I found myself going through Kleenex like crazy. Then, I had to go unstuff my nose. Very sad. There are lots of very sad people following that blog.

I strongly recommend picking up a book by Jancis Robinson. I have a wine course book and a tasting book by her. :) They're beautifully illustrated and well-written.

I keep a cellar, so I have wines of all kinds. I've found that any grape will most likely taste good when done in a style you appreciate, but mostly when it is drunk within the appropriate time...

Right on. I've used a couple models of SPDs and prefer them because they are so easy to get out of. You must make sure the tension is set to the easiest setting, for real. It may help to stop into...

Exactly. In our mountain bike races - in my area - we do sex and age group categories, but the overall winner IS the overall winner, no matter who crosses first. The fastest person is the fastest...

WOW! I checked out this blog and loved the first two paragraphs of the latest post. What a great thinker! :-) I've got a lot of work to do, though, so I don't have time to read the whole post, but...

I'm picturing something similar to an on-ramp on an expressway, and you are traveling like you are already on the expressway, and the other guy is on the on-ramp. In this case you have the...
