Blog Post: Stupid On Wheels http://ping.fm/KcEJw

today's exercise plan: none. 53+ miles in five days means it's time to take a break (good morning, everyone!)

just so you know, I’ve no plans to go to Appalachia or Argentina #charactermatters #gopimplosion

condolences to the family, friends, & fans of Brigadier General Edward McMahon, CA ANG

whoda thunk that i'd ever reach a point where an 8-miler is "a quick workout"? not bob da blob here http://ping.fm/Bc4n9

interesting opinion piece on President Obama's background http://ping.fm/cr3QF

laying in bed & about to fall asleep then remembered i hadn't finished a assignment due today...

thanks for all the FD's greetings, you kind peeps - and a great one to all your dads, too! (off to do homework now...)

Blog post: another 22 miles in log book http://ping.fm/VyHWf (comments welcome)

good morning, folks - off to find pancakes then a tall hill for two wheels - be good to each other...

boomer fitness news of the day: at 0600 this morning, i weighed the same as i did when i left the USAF...in 1991. thank you, bicycling!

obligatory shout-out to y'all - have a great constructive day :)

*fast* solo 10-miler on the Kona Dew Drop, then a relaxing 4-miler w The Bride (her on the Huffy; me on MT bike); two very nice rides

seriously dragging even after caffeine and protein - is there such a thing as 'starbucks in a i.v. drip?'

back on my A game - ready to get back to work & back to the road - cabin fever: get it! ;)

on sick leave & slept all morning - feel a gazillion times better

Could the upcoming Tour de France be fixed so a French rider finally wins??? *Probably* not but this is funny: http://ping.fm/PuZAc

After a good weekend, time to hunker down and give The Man his pound of flesh - good to have a job to come to, sometimes...

did a bunch of homework & a lazy nine mile around town - good weekend

Short Blog Post: Last Night's Aceball http://ping.fm/iU8Cx

got a 10-miler done - rest of day: homework (l4d), ride to lunch, more homework (& l4d), baseball

Rly overcast here but weather.com says everything will clear out by 7:00 PM gametime - go Aces!

Having set my FB userid, I am outta here - g nite y'all

have a craving for juicy delicious apples - silly diet - could eat them all night long...

Blog post: need a note for your teacher? http://ping.fm/B4sge

good morning, folks - carpe diem time - have a great day

cell phone problem solved: @strdncr5 the genius remembered we have an old stand-by we can use - my current number is still good :)

phone call to at&t went exactly as expected - no options other than buying a $300 iPhone - not feeling the love...

if you have my cell, take note: cell phone won't power on - long phone call to at&t tomorrow probably won't end well, either

fuzzy from yesterday's ride - if there's biking today, it'll be on flat ground & high gears

back in the office after a 4-day weekend...what's my password? uh oh

2nd ride done - that's 23 miles & 1400 calories for the day - I could get used to this

Back from a 16-miler; turned out to be a beautiful spring day - time for homework now

big plans on this beautiful day: homework, bike ride, homework, bike ride - that's how i roll

Kash the Kona' debut is delayed due to 1. rainstorm 2. @strdncr5 asleep in staging area; race officials remain optimistic but red flag is up

UP: saddest movie in history - lady next to me bawled from beginning to end...& she started the waterworks at the disney/pixar logos

my love & appreciation to The Bride (@strdncr5) for the best 27 years in the history of history - happy anniversary!

At Harveys Lake Tahoe w a beautiful view of the parking garage & the maintenance dud trying to fix the TV - not going well :)

TGIF, kids! @strdncr5 & i took Thur/Fri off to celebrate the anniversary on Friday - behave yourselves b/c we won't ;)
