Today's ride

So I discovered map my ride. I still think the features of motionbased make it better. Anyway too bad we can't have the best of all programs combined into one.

Today's ride was with pal Jean B; the wife drove support in the Subie, oweing that the rte has no "convenience" stores--or anything else fot that matter. It was a good ride. The elite drops really work. You can get all the stats at motionbased-search user petek and select the ride for today's date.

After the ride and a visit, Sally and I went to Temple to check out the expanded Sun Country bike shop--then ate at my favorite tacqueria--mmm was that good.

Back to 5 hours at work tomorrow and ten + a day next week.

I wished it would stop raining in centex so I could get a decent mountain bike ride in.

Pete out!

Late Update

Weird; this thing won't allow me to type in a title.

This is an update after a lengthy absence from posting. Work is sucking up too much time lately---and---the rains have been quite torrential and trail damaging here in central Texas this spring--so little riding has taken place.

This pic--albeit blurry--is of my "exercise" room's theater. I just got the monitor and Infinity speakers from Crutchfield. I extracted the media lounge player from my main system, as well as the DVD player. Now I have access to all my digitized music library as well as I can pop in a movie and spin til I dont wanna any more.

The last few "innings" -- ha ha as opposed to outings coz d rain--has been spinning to Velvet Revolver. After listening to most of the new Libertad tonigth I think I can say their first album, Contraband, is much more rocking.

I whipped through the new Burdett Thai cop thriller book--Bangkok Haunts--recommended as are all in the series. I see Cruz-Smith has a new spy novel out. Also I await for Follett's sequel to Pillars of the earth--which I think is due soon.

So I went to see the movie about the rat chef. Way entertaining. I still need to see Spidey 3 and Die Harder 3. I'll pass on the transformers. The Pirates 3 movie I thought was disappointing.

So fat, tired, not riding enough, missing my Qatar connection from Ph/Kirkuk, etc. And office and govt/contractor politics are a major drag too. There is a good thread going on over on MTBR about whines--I sure seem to wanna have many about now.

Please God, can I win the lottery? I'll be good.

WHY WONT THIS FUCKIN THING SPACE PARAGRAPHS CORRECTLY?? AND WHY MY STYLE ALWAYS LOOK LIKE A MCDONALDS OR SOMETHING?

GOD-WHINE-I JUST HAVE NO EFFIN TALENT.
