Well - I continue to consistently have bad posts. Is that what I should strive for?
Well you have more posts per day than I do, so you are actually the bigger post whore. :) Hang around here long enough and you will eventually pass me at your current pace. :)

I try, but the new tasks at work don't allow it to be a recreational sport any more. Today might be a good day, but next week will not.

Nothing - I got some cool stuff, but he didn't say it was him. Just deducing, that is all.

I'd venture to say you are right. He loves Dead Guy Rogue, and Webcyclery is down the street. We are the only two from Bend in the Secret Santa thing and you weren't my person, so it wasn't from me.

what's the longest forum or mailing list you've been on? i think i started lurking at mtbr in the late 90s, but i've been on the guided by voices mailing list since probably '94 or so. back in the day, it was manually run; if you wanted to post, you sent an email to the admin, and he collected enough to make a digest and then mailed it out to the subscribers. ancient technology.

That's right noobs. I'm like 'past the expiration date' milk.

Wish I was in the shape I was in then.....damn.

I was riding a GT Avalanche LE at the time. I later sold this frame to RM as an emergency replacement for one he cracked so he could do some race.
