Saturday Bill, Michele, and I went on a TCBC ride. It was a 30 mile deal starting at Ramsey Beach and taking the back country roads. Turnout was great and I had a good time even though Michele was mean to me. Several times.

Snow + new Trek 7700fx == HELL

Posted in Play, Sport on March 18, 2005 | Leave a Comment »

I just picked up my new Trek 7700FX and, of course, because we live in hell (Minnesota) it started snowing immediately. All I want to do is ride. RIDE. So, I did the only thing that anyone in my position would do. I ordered studded snow tires for my mountain bike and will just do [...]

Sichuan food on a mountain top

Posted in Eat/Drink, Travel on March 14, 2005 | Leave a Comment »

Chris Low doesn’t like Sichuan food. I suppose because it can get pretty spicy. Needless to say, Sichuan restaurants were not on the list of places we would go normally.

Several of my digital cameras have the ability to take mpeg movies as well as still pictures. Until I upgraded to iLife ’05 and iPhoto 5, I would have to pull those movies off using the camera’s tools or by hand when the camera gets mounted as a disk. WELL NO LONGER! I did an [...]

You will note that the title this entry is in all caps. THE POST BAR, you remember, the place where my hopes for a great martini were placed, has another name: FREAKING GORGEOUS. The Fullerton hotel is just lovely. I wouldn’t mind staying there at some point just to be in a place that grand. [...]

The coffee situation in Singapore has been sub-optimal for me. As a rule, I’ve been avoiding caffeine in the last year which means decaf coffee. Well, decaf coffee is not a big thing here. Perhaps its not a big thing anywhere but the US. In fact, if you order decaf coffee at our hotel, you [...]

Roti Prata at last

Posted in Eat/Drink, Travel on March 14, 2005 | Leave a Comment »

Ok, as everyone knows (and I mean everyone), Steve made a list of all the foods that he (we) were going to have to try on our last trip to Singapore. The only item that we didn’t get to try was Roti Prata. This was because nobody really seems to serve it until late at [...]
