Pirated copies are sure to follow.

They said they will release it in small increment unless the ransom is paid.

Used the heart rate monitor on the new phone this morning. New phone has a lot of toys I need to figure out plus the camera is really great. Resting heart rate pre-coffee and pre-reading news was 59. Not bad for an elderly guy. Need to check it sometime after I bike "The Hill", the modest and only real hill on my fav route. Or after someone almost runs me over. :rolleyes:
Have you ever seen Sean Connery on your rides?

Boxster, Z would say, "Scary yard!" and probably smile. Then at bed time tell me that it was really scary......so are you scared or not scared? : )

I grew up three doors down from the cemetery. So, nope. ;)

We used to play football in the section that had not been "planted" yet.

Vacation is exhausting, especially a trip like yours where you would want to do and see everything. This may explain why my sister has been to Disney a couple dozen times, if you don't do and see everything, who cares? She'll be there again next year.:rolleyes: And her children range in age from 18-29.

I dated a kid in high school whose family ran the funeral home and they lived upstairs. Always a little creepy to hang out there.

Sneaked in a ride over to Lake Calhoun between storms. 80's and humid so I'll be ahead of NWICY in acclimating to summer. Seventh ride so a good start for the season.

One corgi spied at Lake Calhoun, cool but not as cool as the THREE basenjis spied on Sunday. Stopped and chatted with the couple. It's a basenji owner alumni thing.

There are 2 families in my town that have gone there every year for the past 15 years.

I can't imagine the expense. My bro-in-law (not the douchey one) always has to stay "on the property" in the Grand Floridian, which I think has to be the most expensive one there. I'd rather save for helping the kids with college and take them to Adventureland. By the time my boys are about five, they would rather go to Cedar Point anyway.

I know, but that's what they save up for every year. One of the families actually wants to move to like North Carolina or something once their kids are out of school, just so they can be closer to it. I'd like to see it once. Once. My sister has been there, she liked it, but has no intention of ever going back.

We have been twice, have a little over a ten year gap between oldest and youngest kid, so went when all of them were young enough to be excited by it. For an adult without kids, once will do it for you. My adult boys went recently for free, had a friend interning there who could get three additional people in free.

Truman lake is 21 ft. above normal. I saw it at about that height once. That's a whole lot of water. With all the rain it might get even higher.

Rev, M sympathies on the passing of your Grandma.

Boxster, that is 7 more rides than I have in. Haven't even aired up the bike tires this yr yet.

Gr8, Is Truman lake over by Omaha somewhere?

KC, heard that on the radio about the 144, I wondered what type of car it was. They had their foot pretty deep into the throttle that night.
