Another weather rant - It's brutal here and it is interfering with my riding.



That's good because I'm horrible at cooking.

I'm not greek either.

And I'm not a woman

...or gay for that matter.
 
26 miles in...TT'd the last 2 miles directly into the blizzard. It came out of nowhere. The skies looked good as I swung around and headed for the car.

On the drive home visibility was near zero in the wind-driven, wet snow. We're already below 25°...

So, which one of you is cooking? I have the beer...Great Lakes Brewing!
 
Ah, let's just eat out - leaves more time for riding and women, both of which would be major parts of any epic European bro trip. We had a few snow showers, but none of the sudden snow squalls you had, Campy. Just going down to beat the old record low of 10 degrees tonight - gonna get down to about 8 they claim. I believe it, it feels like January, not 6 days out from April.

That is so funny you would post that - we had a woman come into the office a few days ago seeking a domestic partnership support agreement from her rich doctor boyfriend. Her list of demands was pretty amazing - and all I could think was "what a golddigger". And frankly, she must be good in bed, because she was not attractive and her personality was whiny b-otch.
 
Hookers are cheaper in the short run and in the long run.

Why are divorces so expensive?
Because they're WORTH every dime we pay for them.

We ended up with 2"-3" of snow by first light this morning. The roads were a glaze of ice and it went down to 16°. The road crews put a lot of salt and grit down and I think the roads are going to be a mess for at least today and tomorrow with melting and runoff water. With rain moving in for Friday and Saturday it looks like I'll be stuck on the Kurt Kinetic fluid trainer for a few more days. I packed the Kreitler rollers until next winter! Spring cleaning...

You got a lot more snow than we did - just a dusting. It said 7 on my car dashboard readout at 4:45 am

Definitely not driving the Morgan...

A friend slid his truck sideways this morning and got it stopped just shy of sliding it out into a busy state route. He's a careful driver and I could tell it was serious enough to freak him out.

Predicting 18° for a low tonight...Global Warming©, the gift that keeps on giving.

Hey, I'm not Greek either! I dated a Greek chick. Does that count for anything? Free baklava? A shot of ouzo? Some flaming cheese stuff?

So what did go wrong?

Let me guess... You dont know. She doesnt know either.

It's complicated... But, you will be friends. You will aaaalways be friends.

It's not you, it's her. No, it is you. Nooooo, but yes!

Just think of it, you know that she is right!

What went wrong?

Her family.

They were...Greek.

Her dad only knew one word of Engrish...Stroh's!

MBB will be able to tell you it was brewed in Detroit. Enough said.
 
Much better this way... They usually leave you after:

1. The first month.
2. The first year.
3. The first decade.

At least you still have your whole home and your car and your sanity and you dont have to see her walking around with various other boyfriends whilst telling her friends "how bad it went with you" because it was such a tragic thing that you guys dont fit and that she made you soooo sad... She never wanted you to be saaaad.... She just wanted you guys to be well together...

That's why she is throwing a huge party with go-go boys at her friends place now... So, she will forget about this a bit... She neeeeeds to forgeeeet, she neeeeds to move oooon...

Everybody should feel her pain... Especially now since she didnt have a date for so long. She is a gooood peeerson, reaaaally. She wants to have emotions but she doesnt so she f@cks up with other peoples ones, plus her friend was kinda talking about you so she had to have you for a week to get on her nose a bit, because she is so damn cute with that new haircut and she attracts all the beach scum every time they go swimmsuit showing in Crete and... Ehmmm...

I liked her. She was smart and ambitious. And funny.

The cultural divide was just too great to get across. I found the Greek festivals too confusing.

It was the early 1970's. The era of free love. Or at least the era of love that didn't cost much.

I quickly moved on to a girl that wore too much makeup and not enough clothes. That, too, was fun.

I am beginning to feel as if I am watching a Soap Opera with weather bulletins being flashed across the screen in a crawl line.

Nice. 70-75 is perfect. It is 45 here this morning - probably the warmest temp we have seen since Dec 2nd when it hit 60. Monday is the home opener for the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park downtown - sunny and 60. Some years - ok, many years, we have snow on opening day.
