I'm testing a lot today. It'll be quiet.

I'm going to test ride my new yummy brifters on my Rambouillet this morning.

Naturally I'll have to stop by Ralph's Pretty Good Cafe on the way to the PO and bank on my bike and 'fuel up' for the big 2 mile errand ride.

Pax, I'm so glad your honey got through surgery with flying colors.

lots of folks would be doing good to ride their bikes 2 miles Lisa, have fun and report back!

[Trek420]

Question is, is it belated and so should be delivered for opening on December visit, or is it early and should be kept until May?

Heavens, I have no idea who you are talking about but keep it till May

You're right Mimi- good reality check.
(Actually, it's more like 3 miles.)


Hey, cool factoid alert!:

Now that OT:A has been deleted (as in EL POOFO GRANDOTE!)... it also made some of our total post counts go w-a-y down as a result! Cool!
Mimi- your old persona is now back down to 8,000 posts! Now you can sign back on as yak away some more to your heart's content guilt free!

Thanks, Snap! Now we don't appear to be such terrible blabbermouths! (well maybe just slightly smaller blabbermouths)
In my opinion, someone should just start TD2 in the long-ongoing-offtopic-conversations forum and then they could delete this aging monster of a thread and start fresh!
After all, our U.S. administration is sort of like a New Day- what about a fresh new day here too?

P.S. I find it ironic that there are so many threads in the long-ongoing-offtopic-conversations forum that are anything BUT long and ongoing. Sort of a George Carlin irony thing.

If'n you want to start a new drift, we could ask Susan and Jeff to lock this one. Then it is saved for "posterity" I didn't realize the massive post counts would go down when the other 2 threads went poof.

Being home-bound has caused me to start watching some of the more bizzaro shows on television. Bridezillas anyone?

This thread has Nanci posts on it, so it's kind of special to me. I hope it doesn't vanish for good.

Just moved to a new home.

It's never been exclusive, all are welcome here. C'mon over, sit down and drift.

I taught a creative writing class in Newport, Rhode Island to a large group of people with severe spinal and brain injuries.

The first exercise I gave them was to sit in a circle and I would start a line of poetry and each person would add another line and we would go around in the circle several times to see where we landed.

Along about the third person in the circle started laughing and blurted out something that wasn't even remotely close to what had just been passed to her. The next time we came to her she dissolved in laughter again and gave another way "off base" line. By the time we got to her a fifth time we were all laughing to the point of peeing our pants.

It seems that she had a brain injury that had destroyed her short term memory. She couldn't remember anything recently said for even a few seconds.

To her is was hysterically funny because we had liberated her from HAVING to be on target. We all changed our underwear and went on with more creative writing.

Hip Hip Horray for drifting!!!!!!

[Biciclista]

man, I'm finally home. Pardes, i liked your story. People with short term memory loss rarely get a break.

That's like the time about 10 years ago when my mother called to say "Oh by the way, I forgot my memory pills over at your house, can you mail them to me?".

Did a little 3 mile walk in the rain this morning, but too rainy to bike today.
DH is in the basement as I write, tinkering with my two bikes and getting them fine tuned and putting my rack on the 'grocery Rambouillet'. I'm so lucky and grateful to have a DH who can work wonders with bikes.

Now... if I can just keep picking up cat fur tumbleweeds around here long enough to successfully postpone vacuuming the house until right before Thanksgiving when my cat allergic older daughter is coming......

By any chance do you know what those pills were called? I sure could use some

LOL, I was going to say that! (But I forgot...)
