I did, however, get some very important things done.
First thing on the agenda, raise right arm into air and slowly extend the middle finger to Verizon Wireless. This was a symbolic act. I chose to take my phone back and rooted the damn thing. No longer can they add programs, updates and other things I have no desire for. It’s my phone and I’ll do what I want with it. This, of course, made KB happy because she has grown accustomed to Verizon’s coverage and did not want to change. So I got my phone’s freedom and she got her coverage. We are both happy, for now… I still haven’t played with overclocking it, I decided to save that for some other adventurous day.
Second item. We begun our growing season today. I know exactly what you are all thinking, “Lukas, it’s going to freeze tonight.” Yea, I know. I planted in a green house. Hopefully it doesn’t get that cold that it freezes in the green house, cuz that would pretty much suck. If it doesn’t freeze we will have sugar peas, tomatoes, squash and lots of spinach in about a month, which will hopefully be when we plant the outside garden. I tried to convince my mum that we needed a cash crop, such as tobacco, marijuana or cotton in there, but she wouldn’t have anything to do with it. I was going to remember to take photographic evidence of this but when we got done it pretty much looked like it did when we started…
Third item. I did get photo evidence of this. Drum roll please! I am proud to announce that the Mooseknuckler Cycling Alliance’s World Headquarters now has its very own shop area. For the very first time in about five years, I actually lubed my chain at home. Now this may seem a bit strange to the average cyclist, but once you work on bikes in a stand it is nigh impossible to do without. Ask any wrench about changing a flat with the bike upside down and he will tell you it is not possible. However, if given a repair stand in which to place the bike, the same wrench can change a flat in about 37 seconds. Yes, that’s pit stop worthy. We must take the time to thank Mr. Gurr for his generous donation to said shop. The Craftsman work bench I had grown fond of at Red Rock made its journey across town and into my shed. What does all this mean? Can you now show up at any hour of the day and expect me to work on your bike? Hell no! It means that I can now lube my chain at home and if you happen to come bearing gifts of the beverage type I may do an emergency adjustment for you, but only if it is good beer.
Now for some videos.
I’m digging the videos, but guys, an invite would be nice…
That’s about it for today.
Ride!
