Blog for One

I just saw this on Popular Science and now I want to forget the eco-friendly stuff and get one of these

I already use public transit to commute to work, but I’ve decided to go a bit more green and start cycling to work.

So, bought the bike yesterday, test rode it, everything OK. This morning, I found out just why the bike was such a bargain;

The derailleur came off the back of the bike and the chain fell off as I was crossing a very busy street during rush hour.

I managed to put the _thing_ back together and even made it in on time. Of course, more of the same on the way home.

Tomorrow, the bike goes back to Cheap Retail Store and I will get a bike from Serious Bike Shop with actual Customer Service.

I plan to cycle to work every day this summer, rain or shine. Now, how do I manage the clothing situation? I doubt I can cycle in a suit, certainly not in July.
Well, not if I want to keep the suit anyway.

More on My Green Experiment next week.

Went to a fundraiser las night for the Wong’s Dragon Boat Club. My team is the
Crazy Chameleons Dragon Boat Club but some of my best friends are with the Wong’s.
The fundraiser was a comedy night with a hypnotist…
No, I didn’t get hypnotized, but it was fun watching those who did.

A friend of mine just wrote to tell me she found my blog. This is funny for me, because we reconnected after many years after I found her blog. So now I have to reconsider my blog title…

Live latin music so good it brings tears to you eyes.
