IIDD, May 21st

Hi Ragin'!

To answer your questiones:

Did I mention I became a much happier cyclist when I threw the %^&%%&^ speedo/odo/cycocomp away? Happier, yes BUT far, far lazier indeed!!!

Chain cleaner @mec = $5.95 - but the guy was right.  A wipe down with a solvent, aided by a toothbrush, works great.  Just don't use the toothbrush for its intended purpose again.  Tastes awful.
Thanks for price info but I had always planned to use Cora Lee's nifty power brush!

Glad I am the last resort for bridge.  Did it happen?  Was I missed terribly? In fact you were the partner of first choice, strange as that may well seem! Yes, as Coriandre walked in the door, returning from Water for Elephantos, with Agneta. They had had an argument, over dinner, about wearing helmets while cycling. Rather bizzare, given her yogic propensities and otherwise puritanical life/eating/drinking style, but she is against wearing them! She doesn't like people to disagree with her, especially at bridge. Perhaps you two should be partners next time we have a number of tables! You were not missed at all, inasmuch as there was far more esoteric malt for all!!!

May 26th.  I will be up early and have the boat disconnected from the dock and ready to sail by 8:00am   As this is my first piloting experience with a 47' single screw starship, sedatives will be available.  Final details next week. Whirlygig and I are still on, as of this writing, but the more we cogitate upon crewing for a novice Captain Queeg, we are having increasingly nasty mutinous thoughts!

Rode the RAV line today.  Is "Way Out" a grammatically correct sentence? Does this acronym stand for Ragin' Against Vanilla? Isn't it  a wall sign rather than a sentence?

Flamin' and I are supposed to cycle at 11:30am, from our place. Depending on weather, we may postpone going for a bit if it looks like it will be better in early afternoon, no later than 1:00pm, however. Even if it is drizzling, we will be going out, along with Miltonious. He will be staying for dinner and if you are free, you are invited to partake of meal, break bread and sip wine and malt, and perhaps play a few hands of bridge, initating Milton into the arcane, black arts of full contact bidding.so you will have to decide whether you are a fair weather rider or not! Give us a shout to confirm. Talk later. Cheers, Il Conductore!
