'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I once told a boss that "if everything is #1 priority, then I will do these in a random order and you'll just have to deal with it."
Good one.
See, if they say "everything is #1 priority," they're just in denial that not everything they want done is gonna get done when they want it. Somehow, you have to find a way to get them to face reality. Assuming you care, that is....
Well, it's probably bikable for SO (in fact, our visitors are bringing him a mountain bike) but possibly not for me. It's about seven miles to the heart of town, and it includes some pretty significant hills.
I suppose the answer is for me to get in better shape. My answer is to buy the weird tiny little vespacartruck dealio (like this one, but white: [link] and use that. Parking at the airport is free, so we'd be able to leave a vehicle there and still bus in.
What did you mean when you said, "feel my skills, donkey donkey donkey donkey donkey?"
Leise- That is the cutest vespacartruck dealie I have ever seen. I am currently carless and I am want to buy a scooter to go get groceries. I am not sure how drivable they are in the winter, though, and we have a lot of winter.
If everything is number one - which things don't have to be perfect? In my world ( library) public appearance /relations matter more than anything else...some of the backroom stuff slides
I always hated hills on bike. I've done my dad's commute (10 miles throught the city traffic) in a little over half an hour but that's pretty flat. When I was on a trail in WVa, I wanted to kill someone.
Oooh, that's a nice Vespacar, though I'd want to know if they're actually street-legal in the US, which can get sniffy about nice little cars.
Yeah, I have no idea. It's just sitting in the Mexican restaurant's parking lot, for sale. I don't even know how much they want for it, I just know it's cute! I love the idea of it because I could theoretically even haul gear and building materials in it. But come to think of it, I have no idea how it would handle our wintry roads.
Adding to the Kat chorus. I'm so sorry to hear these latest developments. Continuing to have you all in my thoughts.
Another team pulls out of the Tour de France.
