Had hoped to ride 20-25 miles but ended up only doing around 15.<br />
Need to find another 10 miles to add to this loop.</div>David 23http://www.blogger.com/profile/12983070748700537205noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548496.post-31205812737324305032011-06-22T08:32:00.002-05:002011-06-22T08:35:39.662-05:00Tornado 2011-06-21<div style="margin: 0; overflow: hidden; padding: 0; width: 500px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/david23/5859569189/in/set-72157627021260628/" style="display: block; float: left; height: 75px; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px;" title="front porch"><img alt="front porch" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5274/5859569189_6d473f3d2f_s.jpg" style="border: none; height: 75px; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px;" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/david23/5859569589/in/set-72157627021260628/" style="display: block; float: left; height: 75px; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px;" title="front yard"><img alt="front yard" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2698/5859569589_e16de564b5_s.jpg" style="border: none; height: 75px; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px;" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/david23/5860123488/in/set-72157627021260628/" style="display: block; float: left; height: 75px; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px;" title="front porch"><img alt="front porch" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3118/5860123488_bdabef5101_s.jpg" style="border: none; height: 75px; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px;" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/david23/5859570207/in/set-72157627021260628/" style="display: block; float: left; height: 75px; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px;" title="front porch"><img alt="front porch" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3268/5859570207_09b04f1b05_s.jpg" style="border: none; height: 75px; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px;" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/david23/5860124130/in/set-72157627021260628/" style="display: block; float: left; height: 75px; padding: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 75px;" title="branch on porch"><img alt="branch on porch" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3129/5860124130_438a075353_s.jpg" style="border: none; height: 75px; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px;" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/david23/5860124386/in/set-72157627021260628/" style="display: block; float: left; height: 75px; padding: 0 0 10px 0; width: 75px;" title="Broken garage support with fence"><img alt="Broken garage support with fence" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3048/5860124386_5de7c54127_s.jpg" style="border: none; height: 75px; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 75px;" /></a><br />

<br />
Tornado or micro-burst hit our street. A fence door was picked up from 2 houses down and smashed into our gargage and took out a support. Luck it didn't hit our cars or house. Could of easily been thrown thru our bay window. Also the two large trees in our front yard lost branches which fell on our porch and also look to have hit the house and causes a hole in the siding.<br />
<br />
Power is still out but everyone is okay. We stayed in the basement until the storm passed with candles listening to the radio.</div>David 23http://www.blogger.com/profile/12983070748700537205noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548496.post-74360669929425458122011-06-15T19:10:00.001-05:002011-06-15T19:10:50.257-05:00Kitties love each other<div><br/><img src='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-R4bXbjvpjbk/TflKCO9sdOI/AAAAAAAAPWI/TtTXTdQRNRY/IMAG1145.png' /></div>David 23http://www.blogger.com/profile/12983070748700537205noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548496.post-53166415600251064742011-06-12T20:07:00.001-05:002011-06-12T20:07:54.440-05:00Lily Bike Mechanic<div style="padding: 0;

It's apparent from the content of recent posts and lack of any personal posts in some time that I have fallen out of love with my blogger blog. It's not me. I'm still the same. I'm taking pictures everyday, I'm online everyday, I'm posting everyday, I still have nothing to say BUT, the blogger app just hasn't kept up with me. Neither have my mobile phones.<br />
<br />
The problems started when blogger's email to post functionality became unpredictable. Emailing a post only to have it lost in the ether is frustrating and when it happens you don't want to post it again. The moment is lost.<br />
<br />
At the same time my new mobile phones have not been up to the task of writing posts. The sidekick which I started with blog with was the perfect machine for blogging. It has a nice size keyboard with just the right feel. Since then I have gone thru 2 Android phones and my current phone using a touch screen keyboard which is fine for short messages but which is not so much fun for longer posts. Yes I swype but to continually need to select the word I just swyped really kills the flow.<br />
<br />
I had hoped with the Android Market I would find a blogger app to help me with my loss of love for blogger and an app is now finally available. However, the way it treats images is awful. It shrinks them and they are not clickable and there are other issues. I'm also stuck with the touch screen keyboard.<br />
<br />
To add to the lacking need for my blog there is now facebook, twitter, wordpress and any number of other outlets where I post my nonsense making the blogger blog less important. It has become more of a dinosaur. This blog was created in a pre-social media world... hmmmm<br />
<br />
What to do with this site. what to do?<br />
To be honest I don't know. I would like to migrate it to wordpress where I can host it and use the Wordpress app for Android to keep it current however, the videos will be lost and maybe some images.<br />
<br />
There is a new sidekick on the market now so I might check that out but, for now this site is UNDER CONSIDERATION...David 23http://www.blogger.com/profile/12983070748700537205noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548496.post-62172615341339510732011-05-24T16:05:00.002-05:002011-05-24T16:05:07.924-05:00Max's Morning Commute<iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0OV4r3ZMpdQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>David 23http://www.blogger.com/profile/12983070748700537205noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548496.post-18656946489530312772011-05-12T11:49:00.000-05:002011-05-13T15:36:49.551-05:00Information Everywhere.

<b>Leopard Trek lead Giro tribute to Wouter Weylandt</b><br />
<br />
Riders taking part in the Giro d'Italia are today to pay a moving tribute to fellow racer Wouter Weylandt, who died in a crash yesterday. Weylandt's Leopard Trek team-mates are to be allowed to cross the finish line ahead of the peloton in a stage dedicated to his memory.<br />
<br />
“This is not a day for fighting for positions,” pink jersey wearer David Millar explained before the start in Genoa. The teams will take it in turns to pace the peloton for 10km at a time at speed of 37-40kph. With 1km to go, Millar will give the signal to the remaining eight Leopard Trek riders to move to the front.<br />
<br />
After the stage, there will be no post-race protocol or jersey presentations. Instead, the Leopard Trek riders will come on to the podium as part of a further dedication to Weylandt’s memory. There were moving scenes before the start in Genoa. A special fenced-off space was reserved for the Leopard Trek team bus, and riders filed through one by one to offer condolences to the team’s riders and staff.<br />

Electronic music pioneer Max V. Mathews died a few days ago at the age of 84. While at BELL Labs in the 1950s, Matthews developed MUSIC, the first popular computer program for generating sound. The multimedia visual programming language Max/MSP was named in part for Mathews. From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Mathews">Wikipedia</a>:<br />
<br />
In 1961, Mathews arranged the accompaniment of the song "Daisy Bell" for an uncanny performance by computer-synthesized human voice, using technology developed by John Kelly of Bell Laboratories and others. Author Arthur C. Clarke was coincidentally visiting friend and colleague John Pierce at the Bell Labs Murray Hill facility at the time of this remarkable speech synthesis demonstration and was so impressed that he later told Stanley Kubrick to use it in 2001: A Space Odyssey, in the climactic scene where the HAL 9000 computer sings while his cognitive functions are disabled.<br />

Testimony under oath. The truth and nothing but the truth, so help him God!<br />
<br />
This testimony is important! We have future elections! Have they 'earned' our trust?<br />
<br />
Far too many things are judged in the court of public opinion, then we just move along. Can we move along, when we hear the truth and nothing but the truth, stating our voting machines can be hacked?<br />
<br />
Has this been covered by our media? I hadn't heard this damning testimony. Facts matter. The 'truth' matters more. If our voting machines are hackable, it should be addressed today. After the next election 'is' too late.<br />
<br />
How can one move along to something so wrong?David 23http://www.blogger.com/profile/12983070748700537205noreply@blogger.com0
