I Need A Job

I am currently seeking employment. Again. I thought I would take advantage of the vast network of friends I have here on the blog to ask for such. What am I good at? Well, let's start with the short list of what I am NOT good at: Basketball, swimming, giving birth. The point is I am willing to do just about anything that pays the bills. Preferably something fun. And isn't that what we are all looking for?

Thanks. My email is there to the left.

To all my Valentines

(click the spoke card for pictures)
Thanks for coming out to ride on a cold Monday in February. At least the weather held off for yet another Fiasco. Rain and snow was predicted but failed to fall. Good.

As usual, we started at the Swamp. I don't say it enough, but I would like to thank the Swamp for their hospitality. It's nice to be as welcomed as we are. We had our drinks and braved the cold to unlock the bikes and ride.

It's still very winter, so the rides are short. This one took us through the park and past a few hockey fans, eh to The Viking. We are just as welcomed here. So welcome in fact that pitchers were five dollars.

Someone, and I blame Jon Snyder, had the bright idea that a blinky light dropped into your mug meant that you had to chug it. That's when things went off the rails. I thought it was a blast until I got the dreaded blinky.

That's when I thought it was over. I mean, there were 30 lifetime members for life there, why would I have to get it twice? I got it twice. I wasn't the only one. Some got it more that that I'm sure.

As with every night at The Viking, there was free popcorn. One of the faithful handed us some floss. You ever try to use that stuff drunk? Me either, I'm just saying it would be tough is all.

There is a new lifetime member for life and he is trying to put together some bike polo. There is a link to his budding blogspot to the left. So get down to goodwill and pick up that croquet set that you've been eying and come out and play.

February Fiasco

I could not be there for the awesome January ride so you'll just have to show up again and we'll drink at each other.

The weather right now is fantastic and with the exception of a few flurries on Monday, I expect it to be just as nice. With that, I have now given it the kiss of death and it will be a true Fiasco.

As usual, meet at The Swamp Monday February 9th at 8:00p.m. and have a few beverages. We will ride to another location and do the same. I'll try to make more cards this time.
