It's been raining off and on for the last two days, and nothing could be more welcome. It has been a very dry spring and lots of things are springing to life now ( Read more... )

You should check out the Angry Catfish. It just opened up next to Buster's on 28th. Bikes and coffee. They are really helpful and seem to be really knowledgeable.

I bought a bottle of lube from them one day when my chain really needed it, but haven't been in since. I should give them a try. Usually I go to the Hub for my repair needs.

I think I have a spare set of cranks in my box o' bike bits out in the garage. I have a blue bin on the shelf at the back. Or do you just need a new bolt? In which case, I'd recommend the Ace Hardware on 42nd, kind of kitty-corner to the Angry Catfish. Let me know if you need a hand with it.

I hope all is well with you. I also hope you don't mind my posting this here. It seems that you're on LJ much more than Facebook, and I wanted to make sure this reached you soon ( ... )

Actually going to see Zombie Poe would be a really bad idea. perruche_verte April 27 2010, 04:21:28 UTC

I was dog tired after work and was having what felt like flu symptoms earlier today, so that wasn't going to happen. I probably wouldn't have gone to the reading if it was the Dalai Lama and Zombie Edgar Allan Poe. Thanks for the recommendation though, I'll check him out. I don't encounter poetry these days unless I run into it or it runs into me.

Hope you're feeling better today. Here is a link to purchase Brett's book, if you have a mind to. It's $15 and I found it well worth the cost.

I'd go see Zombie Edgar Allan Poe (or a band called that). An actual Zombie E.A.P. couldn't get very far or move very fast without disintegrating. Zombies move slowly but implacably, one hears ... until they fall to bits.

I have a few Welsh internet friends now. They're extremely pleasant to chat with. They all seem to like American and British punk rock, though, and I doubt they know much of the old music of their region.
