wow when do you find the time?
OT...speaking of oldest people on the internet, evidently some of you would be surprised at how many people are on line that are much older than most riders. i know several in their late 80s and 1 who is in her 90s. it's a great way to stay in touch. if you know someone who doesn't get out much the internet is a good window to the world.

Nice! I saw someone with a mustache tattooed on their finger like that once My only finger tattoo is my Wedding ring. I electrocuted myself on an ignition coil through my metal ring, so got it tattooed to prevent that from happening again
very cool librarian tat. I think is funny how some local public libraries have gotten a little out of control with regards to noise. Fax machines and cell phones are so out of control in some...
Scooting: since Jan 3, 2008 (where have you been all my life? Although at 29 my first car is a scooter. to that I am grateful.)
Home: New Orleans (currently Birmingham, AL. sigh.)
Scooting mileage: 3,008 (last reading i noticed before it was stolen last week. again, sigh.)
[new category]
Listening to: Sun Kil Moon - Salvador Sanchez - Ghosts of the Great Highway. so glad I found this album again. think it's better than the last time I listened to it.
so, not beating anyone in any category, but i'll let this detail slide.
I'm losing my edge, to better-looking people with better ideas.

Hey, not sure if "good luck" is the right expression regarding the storm—hope you and yours make it through okay.
And sorry to hear about the theft.
Sun Kil Moon is great…
re: your location in your profile… I guess you know the Wilco song "Via Chicago"?

I had a seizure before I got that far in the video.
