Oregon, four hours labor, ten pumps moved, one loaded in the back of an already cramped minivan. All I can think about is how death is asured if we get into any kind of accident, half a ton of metal crushing us to death aginst injection molded plastic. I think it's funny. I wonder what dad thinks. -
Earth Day! also Henry Adams Day?

Idealize
Hmmm.... I've been thinking about how I idealize so many things in life. I find it hard to live in the real world, which can never come close to any ideal.

Bizarre
Strange things of late. While biking on Saturday I destroyed my derailleur. Turned it completely upside down, I've never seen anything like it.
