Just got back from the gym, where my wife and I spent some quality time weakening our minds, and ogling the hardbodied hotties that inhabit our particular gym.
We are fairly lucky because for some reason our gym is frequented by quite a few actual athletes, and there are relatively few rockheaded steroid monkeys underfoot.
Tomorrow it's the first big ride of the year: Headed...

Finally got back on my bike this morning, ripped off a quick 74km, avg speed 31kph, top speed 56kph.
No real hills on this ride (which for Calgary residents was a quick blast out to Bragg Creek), that top speed was a 3km sprint at the end of the ride. I would like to say that I was racing against some other rider, but actually...

Birth control? What's that? screw it, we don't need it. My partner has a vasectomy and I'm dying for a kid. I won't ask you to pay for it or anything. Really. We'll pay to raise it. 
You're right about the post divorce friends picking sides. Most of their friends were hers already, so they went back to her. As for the rest, they all tend to be married to wives who got fat and ugly, so maybe they're jealous. I dunno. But My friend Uni invited us to dinner last night, so that made us both happy.

Okay, uncle is fine. As long as the kid is a cyclist. I'm blaming you if it's not because it's definately in my blood. And for crissakes don't get a yappy puppy. Hector is paranoid about fur on his clothes. Get a snake or something.
Finally it stopped raining; In fact, I actually went outside and saw blue sky. A scrap of blue sky, a long way fro me, and moving quickly south, but it was there.
No more rain in the forecast after this afternoon, so i can get back on my bike tomorrow morning.

Retin A Micro has been around since the eighties, and it works like magic...except for the first 4-6 weeks when it makes you break out like crazy. I've used it before. I think the reason it makes you break out so much is that it clears out all of the unwanted stuff that was under your skin in the first place, and after that it just prevents gunk from sticking together.
As for the research, ironically enough I am actually doing my thesis on exactly that. The world of education (and the world in general, I think) are on the verge of a paradigm shift. People are finding out that what we currently call "education" is really just socialization and indoctrination of a historically culturally narrow (read: Western/WHITE/male) pedagogical content. Unfortunately, the content also seeps through to the context/structure as well. There's lots more to it but yeah, I'm excited about the research too, for those reasons.

I went to the grocery store this morning. Picked up some olive oil, lettuce, carrots, mushrooms, cream cheese, a couple pounds of hamburger, a baguette, and 4l of milk.
Making burgers tonight (those of you who were at the big loft party, or at any of our bbqs, know what kind of burger I mean)
Yes: the heart attack smack jack burger!
Mix ground beef...

You're so awesome! but you really need to do something with that diet...

Oh? you think maybe I am not getting enough to eat?
well I just finished one of th best weekends i can remember. And since one of the things that happened this weekend was 20km of riding my bike through hail, 60kph winds, and driving rain while transports roared by me, you can imagine just how good the rest of it had to be.
In my profile it says that i 'have no unfufilled fantasies'. That...

Hello

hello yourself, and thanks for letting me befriend you...so what are you studying in college?
still more bloody rain. I have not forked a leg over my bike now in four days (this is what you get when your only bike is worth more than your car...you are scared to let it get wet!),

Pearl is my fave suicide girl, because when the live show came through town she did this wild opening number with a hula hoop, and i don't think i will ever feel the same about toysRus again...

so what do Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears, and (as of now) Gwen Stefani all have in common?
Their music is better with the damned sound off.
Just saw a video on teevee of something called hollerbag girl, goddamned bloody awful. It was nauseating.
Sure was a lot of eye candy though...

Don't worry about my grammarianship. As long as you use apostrophes correctly (and you do) I am happy as a clam!
