RE: PESO - Ti on the Train

So how come he's riding the subway? Over here you're not allowed to take an unfolded bike on the tube. Can't imagine why anybody would want to, though - bikes are quicker. On the other hand, it hasn't snowed within the limits of Zone 6 since 1327. Bob > > This is sort of a counterpoint to yest

PESO - Ti on the Train

This is sort of a counterpoint to yesterday's Itinerant Cyclist. I mentioned in my response to Marnie that Itinerant's bike was a tad ramshackle, which contributed to my opinion that he was something of a down-and-outter. Here's a bike that's anything but ramshackle, and its owner looks anything

Re: We shall overcome um um, some day

John, less than 3 years ago I was paddlling in the softened surf at the mouth of a nearby river - I'm too old for real-surf kayaking - when I saw a commotion on the other side, lifeguards running and jumping in the water. As I came closer, they started pulling kids out of the water, and taking

Re: Arrrgh

I had my own Arrrgh yesterday. Maybe not as bad, but.. A friend gave me her old Fuji Finepix A350 which had a stuck lens (it had been dropped with the lens extended). I bought a tri-wing screwdriver ($3) to disassemble the case, pulled off the back, the main circuit board, the battery casi

Phone calls

Since it seems rant time...My phone just rang again with an "unknown caller!" I am being killed by robo-calls. They don't seem to have to pay attention to anything. One call, for the tenth, (at least) time says this is the last time they will call me to reduce my credit card interest.

Hi Roman, had some trouble reaching your photo yesterday (my net provider is about to catch fire the moment I find a good glass bottle), but had more luck today. Interesting composition, but I feel the colors get in the way - and the stream looks too irregular, too textured - my taste, here...
