Doghouse Schematic Design
Still working on the hole and tweaking the roof. I'm alarmed at the lack of good design criteria for doghouses. I mean what if dogs needed a restroom how can I calculate their space requirements?
Does my Laun Long for something better?
I was cutting my Laun the other day, and as I sat on my porch I wondered if he longed for something better. Was this two-square foot planter pot everything he thought he would be? After all he was uprooted from a golf course and unceremoniously driven to his present location. Does he want to be here?
I was at Target, I'm always at Target. You would think they would stop asking me if I need help finding anything. I know the store better than than you, High School summer help girl! Stemless wine glasses, 200 meters and a left after the small appliances end cap! Anyway I saw this.
Acres of grass photographs. Maybe my Laun wanted to be a model? Every blade waxed and polished. Perky but not too sharp. Maybe I should sharpen my scissors to leave a clean cut? Do they make Laun product?

Long Lost MFK
Sorry to the followers, I haven't felt much like posting lately. Maybe it's because the cut-back sword has been slicing through my industry again. Luckily I still have a head.
The Winter Park Hill climb was a little weird for me, how could I be a minute slower than last year, and last year I was slow. The good thing is I'm still in the to 10% of all who climbed that puppy. Time were down by a minute across the board. I would bet my blog that the finish was a 100 yard farther up the hill.
I'm currently designing my friends dog house. I'll get the concepts up for appoval. It may be over budget due to the fact I'm making it Tornado proof. You can't be too careful with this crazy weather.
I saw this the other day. Proving once again McDonalds can add sugar to anything.

Couldn't Agree More
New study shows iPhone users to be in a class by themselves
iPhone users are richer, younger, and perhaps even more productive at work than those who use competing smartphones, according to a new study released Friday. ( 26 comments
We'll except for that whole more productive part, or maybe I am. Apparently it doesn't make me any more sexy, or attractive to the ladies.

Cadel Evans Greatest Natural Resource?
I've been watching the Dauphine Race in France this week, I'm sure I spelled that wrong. I study all the posted pics looking for something to blog about, and I think I've found something. Cadel Evans has the most square footage of eyebrow than any professional racer. He also has some strange recessed mouth area. This is possibly a result of his body trying to compensate for eyebrow growth. I bet if we harvested Cadels eyebrows we could some how use them for alternative fuels. I wonder what his regenerative capabilities are if we shaved them once a week?

Sorry no Pictures
On my drive to work this morning, I saw a complete cycling abomination. I oppose the use of the Camelback in almost all situations. In my mind the only acceptable use is some all day riding in dessert locations such as Moab or Fruita. Local trails, are you ever that far from your car or a water source? Road bike what are you thinking? Todays subject of my wrath was commuting to work. He was in full winter like gear, the mornings are chilly but it was still 60 out. Neon windbreaker, you know how I feel about those. HUGE backpack, ant two water bottles. HIs bike looked like a trail mix of reflectors, mirrors, and LED blinkers. This gets me back on track with the Camelback. Where do you wear it if you already have a backpack on? Frontways was his answer. I almost drove off the road when I saw this. I'm going to stop wearing my glasses when I drive so I cant see these disturbing details anymore.

Where do they all go?
I've been watching peoples microwave habits lately. One thing that sicks out is most of the cook time is never completed. You usually are left with the odd 15 or 10 seconds. As soon as the food starts hissing and popping people panic and put their food out of its misery. I wonder where all these seconds go? One of these days I'll put together a spreadsheet of these lost seconds.

Big Poppa's Stir Fry EPO
So I've had some unidentifiable nasal crud for the last couple of days. My head feels like the image of the Grinch that Stole Christmas. You know the part when his heart grows three sizes and breaks the the box around it. Yeah, just like that but it's my head. I'd like to think this setup shop in my body last Saturday when I SDFL the Burn TT. Anyway, its been tough to ride. I tried weds. but after four minutes of a 20 minute interval I almost threw myself off Lookout to end my suffering.
All day Thursday at work, I was not looking forward to riding. I then thought what would I do if I hung up the bike all together. I guess I would talk to 50% more women, so that would be 50*0. After deciding to ride the couch for the evening I popped in Notorius and whipped up some Stir-Fry. That's when it hit the urban beats of Big Poppa and the Spicy Stir-Fry must have triggered a chemical response in my body. I was drawn to my bicycle. This must be what Salmon feel when it's time to swim up stream. It was a quarter to 8 and I was going riding, and a ride it was. I stood up 80% of the time crushing big gears. There was a concert at Red Rocks. I must have freaked a thousand drunk and high people out as I weaved through the throng at 40 mph's. Even though I had a steady trail of snot running out my nose, it felt good!
I guess you got to get to your lowest, before you get to your highest. Thanks Big Poppa.

Nann Bread Attacks
I love Indian Food, maybe it is because you don't actually have to chew it. It just kind of slides around in your mouth and your tongue gets to play with it. It says "hello spinage mush stuff, do you want to check out Mr. Stomach today?" The answer is always yes. Today at lunch I imagined I was attacked by a Nann Bread monster, my only weapon against it was my mouth. I can't decide if the restaurant patrons were thankfull that I fought off the monster, or pissed that I ate all the bread?
The fajita pie anchor
Well I'm still pulling parts of Trogdor out of my arse. I wonder when the fireball is coming? Mental note, fajita pie is not the correct pre-race meal. I'm constantly amazed at my poor performance. I love watching the 40+ fathers of three put 10 minutes in to me. I think I've got my schedule off by one week. I feel great on the weekend before every race. It is a good thing I have a race every weekend this month.
I did enjoy discussing our combined mediocrity with Mr. Mention.
