Nutty--
$350 is not unreasonable for a decent bike. Who's the manufacturer? (I paid $200 for a six-year-old mountain bike ten years ago.)
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Electra, and it is a "townie" -- cruiser mark II -- bike. It is designed for sitting upright, which I really have to do, because my back sucks.
Somehow, I take issue with the basic "we are so cool" web design, and the excessively styled models of bikes. But, this is pretty much the bike I want.
(Theo, they do sell streamers for the handlebars, although not in pink. They are leather, which I believe is the most depraved use of leather outside of leather onesies.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm actually liking Bones better this week than I did last week -- it's the lab guys, I think.
DB needs to smile more. He never got a chance as Angel.

Yup. Any lab geek that can name flesh-eating beetles has got my vote.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I think I am going to watch Bones tonight, but I missed last week's episode. Is there anything I need to know from last week?

Yoiks. That's certainly stylized. Lemme poke about a bit.
Okay, Trek's got some city-hybrids for around the same range. [link]
I'd do some webresearch, frankly: if you're going to spend the money, buy a bike you can hang a basket on, or a set of panniers or mud-guards on. And that has a reputation for quality and sturdy construction. Substance over style, would be my recommendation.

Perkins, DB is hot. That's all you need to know.

I don't think so. There doesn't seem to be any salient through-continuity from last week.
Also, I called the dioxin as soon as I saw the brother's pockmarked face.
That kick-in-the-door thing is so hot.

Now tagless for your comfort.
We paid $400 each for our Trek hybrids about five years back. They were worth it. If you're mostly in town, I recommend slicks--the mountain bike tires have entirely too much traction.

What is even happening?
Okay, so House, which I am not allowed to watch, and what else? I take it GG is on right now? Is there anything else?
