math problem

I bought neoprene socks from Performance Bicycle and they seem to work
rather well.

Don't you have the standard rain golashes for that kind of thing?

It wasn't raining that hard when I left in the morning, and in fact, stopped
raining completely mid-morning, until the next storm blew in. Yeah, I have
booties, but most of the time I just wear my commuter shoes. Booties are a
pain, and I don't pull them on unless I think we're going to get an inch or
more.

Right after that first big rain/windstorm was my time for riding
through puddles and being surprised by their depth, even though
they were on familiar terrain (I knew there were no potholes
there.)

There was a beaut where I shortcut through Mountain View
Cemetery. I don't know if the puddle still there, I've
been avoiding that spot since. The City has been building
some Japanese garden thing in there, and I guess it
overflowed.

I also discovered, the hard way, a wicked sinkhole in the
parking lot by Mr Sub.

Our tap water is still turbid and ugly, and a "boil your
tap water" advisory remains in effect.

cheers,
Tom

If a bicyclist rides for 45 minutes at 10 mph when it's 6 degrees C in a
rainstorm in the dark, upon arrival at home, for how long does she haveto
shower with water at 41 C before her toes thaw out?

42... the answer is ALWAYS 42!

Claire could try drinking a hot beverage that is almost, but not quite
entirely unlike tea.

From the Doctor Who (Peter Davison) story: "The Awakening":
Turlough:"I quite miss that brown liquid they drink here."
Will Chandler:"Ale?"
Turlough:"No. Tea."
Will Chandler:"What be tea?"
The Doctor:"Oh, a noxious infusion of oriental leaves containing
a high percentage of toxic acid."
Will Chandler:"Sounds an evil brew, don't it?"
The Doctor:"True. Personally, I rather like it."

On a blustery PNW night, a pint o' grog hits
the spot. So does clam chowder, minestrone,
Lipton's (chicken noodle) cup 'o soup, hot
cocoa, or hot-&-sour soup from your best local
Chinese take-out place. And wonton noodle soup
w/ BBQ whatever, and a li'l dish of that chili
seed + orange rind in oil sauce on the side.
And gai lan & black bean sauce. And maybe
some pot stickers.

cheers,
Tom

6C is average for Vancouver this time of year. I ride all year.
Get Marion in China to send you Exustar bike boots since that is where they
are made. I find the rubber cleats slippery on shiny floors but the feet
are warm and dry.

Just because they are made here doesn't mean they are easy to find
here.

I'll ask Ah Zhi how much they cost, hao ma?

Uh oh. Here we go with the "yumminess of food" thread again.

Jesus, Claire, I had hoped you weren't posting your idiotic [censored]
anymore. I think your brain got more frozen than your feet did.

Folson: Claire's brain, even frozen, would have you beat at any
temperature.
