Hey JM! Good to see ya again. Dunno if I'll be making it up this weekend as I got forcefully evacuated off the bike this morning by some asshole trucker who cut a corner downtown. No real injuries here, little shaken up, ankle is sore. Bike needs to be looked at though. The back brake lever looks funny now and I hit pretty hard going down. I'll let you know!

Glad you're mostly ok. Trucks suck, ask me how I know!

Did he stop? Was he cited?

Correction on the days I'll be in Concord, CA. Looks like it'll be 9/8 - 9/11. I'll be in Texas 8/25 - 8/28. Fun Fun Fun.

I'm gonna miss you! :(

Will be in kayaking in the San Juan Islands that week.

(Ok, I tried to find the boating equivalent of  [moto] and this is what I found:  )

Stop? Oh hell no. Never seen a big ass flat bed move so fast. Didn't get his license plate either.  [bang]

Whats even more awesome is that while I was trying to pull my foot out from under the bike, buses were making that turn and cutting the corner as well.

I'm just thankful that the bike (and myself) didn't get run over at all. Its one of those times where, looking back, I shoulda done something different. I was trying to back the bike up but I was on my tip toes on a slight hill with construction debris and it wasn't happening.

Our office is in the middle of moving...I just got told that I will not get a cube in the new building (as my position is technically field-based).  Means I have to pack all my crap up and bring it home. [bang]

On the positive side, it means I will get to start expensing my home phone / DSL line and other office type expenses (for example if I want to get a new printer). :)

You can now

1) write off the dogs as office security.
2) write off the square footage of the house that is work related
3) and order a nifty new computer for me, and make them pay for it

;)
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Ooops I missed this!  Darn new button not working properly on TOSAT.

I'm glad you are ok, wow, sorry to hear about your accident.  Are you bruised up?

Nice.  Should I bring home my docking station and LCD monitor?

Hell yeah.  ;D

Hey MsInc! yeah, I'm ok. My ankle is swollen and tender but walkable. Knee is a little scuffed. Not too bad. Scared the bejeezus outta me.

Possibly...haven't worked out the plans for that week yet, but there is a chance I may be doing a solo cross-country moto trip.  If not, I'll be at home.
