Don't you hate it when

ya can't find something?

I've looked, searched high and low.

I know i had it before the move. I just can't find it after the move.

I might have loaned it out, but i can't remember who or if i did.

It's bothering me.

What is it?

My copy of the Triplets of Bellvile.


It's naggin, frustrating... that movie kicks ass...

It's freaking GREAT training fodder... and damn good entertainment...

It's buggin the shit outa me that i can't find it... i've searched the hundreds or thousands of cds for the damn DVD... nowhere... i THINK i've looked through the "junk" boxes from the general location.

I just don't know, and maybe that's why i'm all grumpy.

Setting a team in motion is a pain. Setting a club on the right track, lining up duties and all that, itsit's (see SB, i'm working on it) a major pain. Often the mental catalyst for me is seeking other options. once i start looking around, stuff starts falling in place where i am... very funny stuff actually. This isn't the first time...

That and ya look at the last two emails off the newenglandcyclocross list and ya can't help but say: F'yeah. I'll refrain from posting the emails here cause they weren't written for me and not for my own post fodder check them over here if ya can, if ya can't and ya care about cyclocross, esp in the primier area of the country... join up.

One thing about sectioning. Cutting 40nm thick bits of epoxy is damn tricky. Just breathing near the ultramicrotome screws up the sequence. And often it will skip a cut and the next one won't be 40 but 80nm and that don't work. The metal layer has to be as thin as possible. Tedious, but freaking fun. A challenge i embrace... in general.

On the otherside - its days like today that you realize, there just ain't enough coffee in one pot...

I tried a different place for lunch - no so good... over priced and under portioned. Flavor was good, Tofu was like deep fried sponge - so not good, but again, flavor was good. Not going back tho unless someone else is picking up the tab and they have a craving for Tai food (or MegA comes down for lunch - couldn't help it meg... LOL)...

On the plus side the weather seems to have settled down so that i can ride home au natural... i mean normal SS's everywhere...

Oh and i've decided that I like Windows Media player... call me a sell out but... all this DRM shit and Apple's format and all that... iTunes is getting axed off my 'puters... pretty redudant as Iron Man sounds the same played with WMP vs iTunes... And WMP lets me rip in MP3 format.... Not that i have a decent MP3 player... but what ever i get it'll be something along the lines of the Archos... iPods seem much less appealing with the NO SHARE policy... not that i've purchased a single track on line ever but... well ya know i have aspirations of putting all my CDs on a player... Hell i KNOW what music i have, my problem is finding the GD cds... much easier to croll through a list of artist names and hit play on the right album...

4 gigs for $140... decent price it would seem... rather attractive... hmmm...

Must

not

click

buy now

must buy niterider TAZER tail lights and headlights first... or a Krog... i dunno... tough call...

I think this blog is right brain taking over from left brain...

in the words of Frank:
Frank goes to work, and the left brain and right brain co-exist until...Frank's right brain kicks his left brain in the nuts and wants to do something more exciting and stimulating, ...


mmmm direct link to post here mmmm

left brain right brain... must photograph... NO fix microscope... must write... NO CUT SECTIONS.... must read.... NO WORK ON RECCOMENDATIONS... stupid brain fights...

I wonder how a google fight would play out with left brain vs right brain...

GOOGLE FIGHT Left Brain vs Right Brain

hmmmm, that ain't a good sign

Google fight is fun... cause it ain't fighting - conflict and competition without pissin in everyone's cornflakes... that is unless you don't win...

I still can't believe Wicks has never used 180 cranks... the freak's like as tall as i am (or i was before i got old and started to get shorter)....

peace... and don't forget to let the right brain run amuck...

You can borrow my copy of the film if you like.

The NBW may have movie nights again this winter. Les triplettes was a big hit last year.

Any movies to suggest? We've had Stars & Water Carriers & le Course en Tete.

Maybe Breaking Away or American Flyers this year...

that was like four posts....
I wanted to comment on each one

now i forgot what I wanted to say

best I get back to work

I can tie in to ideas

recently lost some stuff for some members of my mountain bike team
tore the house up and down
blaming it on the kids
they spill
stuff gets thrown away

but it was more than likely me
trying to put stuff where the kids can not ruin it

hidden from all
including me

I am not very organized

hope I can teach my kids better

gewilli said...

yeah - sorry - written as such,

maybe i should post before new ideas...

separate them... like hiding stuff from the kids... not so much hiding them but putting them out of sight and out of reach... means...

like you said...

spending lots of time looking for the 'safe' place you thought of in that instant...

gewilli said...

il bruce,

get Hell of the North or whatever its called... damn good 'flick'

BA and AF are good decent amurican flicks about bike racing...

i ain't a movie buff - check with "What-I-Think" for potential hidden gems of films with bike themes...

just a guess as to who to seek advice from...

and i might just have ta see about borrowin your copy to satisfy my urge to view that film!
