Hey NWICY, I think I can hang the bike up for the season. Forecast is pretty much winter after today.

Consulting my CG-like spreadsheet I see that I fell well short of my 1000 mile exercise rides goal. Kinda slacked off the last two months...lazy sloth boy that I am.

806.9 miles, 58.6 hours, approx. 43,000 calories burned, avg temp 77.9, average trip speed 13.6 mph.

So, ever wanted a Miata, but hated the idea of owning a Miata? Well, now you have an option. It's owning a Fiat, so I'm not sure you gain much, but I'll admit, it's intriguing...Fiat is rebranding the new Miata with the engine from a 500 Abarth and calling it the Fiat 124 Spyder. Pretty nice looking, honestly.

That's kinda weird to have a bastard child Miata/Spider. I owned a '94 Miata. Still like the lines on that old model better than the new ones. I think Miata is due for a total remake.

oh ****, it's going to snow this weekend and we don't have a snow shovel.

We can use a broom and a spade, right?

We took dinner over to some friends that recently had a baby. Their older two (baby is #3) for some reason went into a closet. It just so happens they dup around enough in said closet to find their Christmas presents. Ooppss.
