Supposedly the ?! combo has been around since the 60′s, even had a key for it on some typewriters. So where did it go from then to now?

Is the combination question mark and exclamation point a sign of the times?

New bike . Because sometimes when you break your old one you get to replace it! Been on a few rides with it so far, the bumpier the better. Still trying to get used to how it handles in close quarters but that’s part of the fun.

Still feeling like I need more riding and climbing, I set out on the standard ride around the lake.  I then decided it wouldn’t be enough.  Hooked it to the north to add some time & hills through Interlocken.  Ride profile adds about 5 miles, and <<some>> climbing.  Let’s just face it, we can all use more climbing

So I just finished a road loop around the lake. It is almost maybe starting to feel like I’m supposed to be out riding those things again. Nice little 12.6 mile loop tonight. Hopefully I can step it up a leetle on the weekend.

Did a combo ride (by two counts) today around Standley lake. Combination of dirt and roads – also combined two different rides I do in the area. Josh and KT joined me for the fun.

At the top of Lee Hill Rd. on my bike. Fourth or fifth ride this year – OUCH! Map to follow shortly – I hope I make it back over old stage

I was looking for a regular picture of a target – you know, like the the logo for the store.  Then I found this mixed in with the scandal about how they are “misusing” social networks, blogosphere blah blah.  However I found/borrowed this pic – it makes me smile.  Poor little kid though – I hate when that happens.

So, I’m spending another weekend in NYC.  I call it taking rest, yet it is counterintuitive to me.  I’m watching the Democratic debate while I chill and get ready to go out.  How can this be restful?

I came in last night, as after a crazy work week.  As disappointed as I am in myself for staying in last night – it was the right thing to do.  I slept in this morning – and I deserved it. Today has been awesome, and it ain’t over yet.

A bunch of people have recommended that I take the ferry ride to Staten Island for the view of the city – today I made it. No fireworks, nothing special, but the view are nice.  I don’t know that I need to go to the Statue of Liberty, or Ellis Island, but we passed by them and I had a great view of NYC.  Today I caught up with a friend that I have not seen in a while, and look forward to seeing again soon.  In a few minutes I’m going to hop on the subway to meet a friend’s brother, and go see a show.  Tomorrow I’m going running in Central Park.  Is this restful?  Perhaps not, then again, it’s a deviation from the norm which is invigorating in itself.

Another interesting note from today – my friend I saw earlier asked me “how do you keep up a social life when you travel as much as you do?”  Quite serendipitous timing as I’ve been pondering this question myself lately.  Perhaps it is more strange than a “normal” social life.  What do I do?  I’ve been at my house a handful of days this year, maybe I’ll get a few more.  Friends have moved all over, and I’m all over.  My “life” has become distributed.  It ranges from 7 hours ahead of me to 3 hours behind me.  The people I care about are in time zones spanning almost half of a day, and I choose to run long days on my own.  How do I keep in touch?  If I’m always in different places how can I have a physical connection with the people I care about when they are distributed around the globe?  I DON’T KNOW!  But I am trying

Driving all night, Josh, Kyle, David and I woke to this!
