Herself and I picked out vinyl, tile and carpet yesterday — now all we have to do is wait for the flooring dude to clear our choices with the property-restoration folks, who no doubt must consult the turd-herders. Then we’ll be in business, maybe, assuming that the contractor who handles the installation will not be [...]
I know, I know, print is dead. But it’s one thing to say it, and another to see the actual corpse. The Rocky Mountain News died today, just a couple months shy of its 150th birthday, and even those of us who are more pixel-pushers than ink-stained wretches should pause to pay our respects.
The first [...]
I remember when there used to be something called “the off-season.” No longer. Websites don’t like downtime, and so there’s always something needs doing over at VeloNews.com.
My days in the barrel as online editor at large are Monday and Wednesday. Come important events, like the Amgen Tour of California or any of the grand tours, [...]
I should be in New Orleans, drunk as a monkey, draped in cheap beads and screaming, “Show us your tits!” But nooooo, here I am in Bibleburg, gulping non-alcoholic java and grappling with various calamities on this last day before Lent.
The Devil is very much with us going into this season of prayer, penitence, fasting [...]

Among the other outfits in attendance were Carmichael Training Systems, Moots, Angletech and Alison Dunlap [...]

But enough about me. The inaugural Peak [...]
If there are any Okies in the Tour of California peloton, the Dust Bowl days must be looking pretty damn’ fine to them after three days of soaking rain.
Astana and OUCH might want to think about swapping sponsors, seeing as it’s the boys in blue and yellow who are spending all the time on the [...]
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I can give you both. Here’s a shot of the basement a week after a sewer crew fountained Herself’s crapper, ruining carpet, vinyl flooring, drywall and my sunny disposition. The outfit hired to handle the cleanup and restoration is on the job, and God willing (and [...]
