Working from home is a treat. I've just finished steaming another batch of raw peanuts, they are delish.

I've worked from home for two weeks straight. Haven't been in the office since May 27th. WIN!

Also visited my dental surgeon for a consultation about some implant work and it looks like I'll be paying almost more than what monkeys here paid for their dentist bikes recently - combined.

Just have 'em pulled and go with the English grill?

i thought your field of study was unemployment?

If it had been, I'd be happy to be working in my field.

Yesterday we compared our mortgages, today is about our education and wealth mis-management strategies, what comes tomorrow - cup sizes of our better halves?

We're all getting grown-up/old. These are real topics now.

I'm a solid B cup, is this a competition?

Sounds like a good intern!

He had a remarkably strong voice with a lot of presence, I thought he would be suited for the dying on air business. Aside from that he was OK, I can already do my job, I need an intern who can do my job better. He wasn't offered management training. Nice guy though.

Not you, Moobs.

Nope, that's my field. Speaking of... Adulting didn't happen today. Got two rides in this morning and was drinking IPA by 11:56am.

I used my degree as kindling to start the fire.

My diploma is so hideous that it looks like it was designed by someones secretary and printed at Kinkos. Never framed it, just stuck it in some binder on a shelf.

Majored in Art with a concentration in painting, now a full time metalsmith. So as to whether I use my degree, yes and no.

No riding today since it's been threatening to storm. When it's windy like this, it's too dangerous to be in the woods. I've seen 2.5" dia. branches get driven a foot into the ground. Fuck getting hit with one of those if I can avoid it.

Here is a segment of today's ride on the Giggle Pig. Today I softened up the front end and tightened the rear, in this segment I used every inch of travel on both ends and never felt it. A minute or so in you can have a laugh as I struggle to keep the front end planted on a short climb. This is a lot of bike for me to pedal around, I can manage 90 minutes a day but am totally gassed by the end. Even so I have no inclination to take either end out of trail mode.

I know its boring, I'm a hack.

You get paid weekly? I get paid the 1st and the 15th. I have an in law that is a heavy equipment manager for a regional construction firm, he makes bank but has to yell at everyone all the time. He too has never paid for his own gas but he had to work the oil fields of SD.

So, I was bitching to myself that I was out of shape while riding today. Up comes a 65 year old man on a 1989 Bianchi with what appears to be stock tires, just having a lovely time pushing his bike up the hill. Mind you this was headed to one of our most technical descents in the area. Put things in perspective for me.
He was wearing a tshirt, gym shorts, and running shoes, having the time of his life.
I greatly enjoyed the rest of my ride as a result of the encounter.
I hope he made it down ok!

Hospital duty... Meh

The best technical rider I have ever biked with rode a full rigid Bridgestone from the mid 80s when steel was real.

Me neither. No hikers there either because it is too tuff to hike.

Weekly and I don't have to yell I approve the contractors pay apps and everyone settles down when you remind them you will sit on their money until the day they try and lien the job
I deal more with owners of the. Various trades companys town engineers DPW power and gas company architect engineers more on the front end getting everything ironed out before it becomes problem and little interaction with the labor force the general Foreman deals with them

My Association with Toshiba has ended. They make copiers now. I have no need for copiers. Yamaha doesn't make copiers. They make some kick ass Audio Components however. I love getting free shit also.... Very impressed.

Why doesn't your entertainment system cover your kitchen? Think of how much time you spend in the kitchen? Should family time in the kitchen exclude Music, memories, and information?

 

[Toshi]

I have two in-ceiling Klipsch speakers in the kitchen. The receiver in the basement drives it as a second zone. Said receiver gets content streamed to it from our phones via AirPlay. 'tis a nice setup.

The rats in my kitchen prefer salsa. Im more of a 90s man.
