OT: That Pina Colada Song

[Lise]

Key Largo by Bertie Higgins. Ain't Google wonderful?

HA! Google! I never think of that thing!

Bertie Higgins...Rupert Holmes...they sound like the same guy in my memory! Thanks, V, for helping out the search-engine challenged. L.

Well... Thom's out riding his motorcycle. He's had it 4 months and only put 250 miles on it. It's not even broken in yet. Our weekends had been filled with my training. So, I'm puttering around the house today. We still need to replace the derailleur on my bike and I don't feel like riding my afterwork loop which I can do with just one chain ring. So... you're keeping me from being too bored. I may attempt the repair myself. If I get sufficiently motivated.

Hmm. Mike's had his motorcycle about 4 months, too. Just in time for the raniy season. Did Thom do a spreadsheet showing how much money you'd save if he got a motorcycle? Mike did. We should be rolling in cash right about now....

[Veronica]

No... he's just tired of the commute. I actually sat on it today. Thom would really like for me to get a motorcycle. They are so heavy, even his which is relatively small.

Mike's is too tall for me, or I would learn to ride it. I had a roommate in law school who taught me to ride his in a parking lot. It was pretty fun.

Thom thinks I'd love riding one. I so seldom drive anywhere so I kinda don't see the point. If I'm going to go somewhere to ride - I'd rather be on my bicycle.

Thom's was fairly inexpensive. He's planning to ride the Davis course with it, so maybe you'll see him.

That's fun. I'll bet he'll have even more fun doing a double that way! You need to get him a bike rack for it - or better yet, those wheel racks like the Mavic motorcycles. So he can give you a spare wheel if you need it. Now that would be helpful!!

Did you fix your derailleur yet?? Is it going to be okay for tomorrow?
