    i just watched a law & order episode that had me in tears oh man intense.
    kid who got picked on in school, then kidnapped, ran away and tried hanging himself from the
    monkey bars in the backyard of the girl who broke his heart (mind you he's like 12-14) but gets saved in time.

    Word. Aioli is solid. While eggs, a common ingredient in both, are ichiban, I much prefer olive oil and garlic to the "whitebread" mayo equivalent of random veggie oil and vinegar.

    1 teaspoon salt
    4 cloves garlic; peeled
    Lemon juice; from 1/4 of a lemon
    1/2 cup olive oil; extra virgin

    Best aioli recipe ever. Make it.

    I am continuously confused by Min's choice to spend $$$ on parts for mediocre frames.

    It's my opinion that the frame is the least important part of a bicycle so long as it fits you and agrees with your aesthetic sensibilities. That's why I have two Lemonds: I like the geometry and I like the aesthetics. What more can you want from a frame?

    Whenever i see frames locked to objects for months, usually fully ripped of whatever would come off, I think of it as a bike rape victim or something

    Theres one at PSU between a dorm and Science building 2 and there was one on taylor between 16th and 15th for the longest time, both just frames and forks

    I love reading bikeforum posts that get into physics. Rather funny.

    Im reading one about frame stiffness an some people are saying maybe with a flexy frame you can get a return on energy cause it has to go somewhere, right? lol.

    Dude, I feel ya. I almost got doored last summer. My speed, lack of helmet, and door height were such that I probably would have never ridden a bicycle again. I was shaking for about an hour.

    aww shucks man, thanks. I worry that I come off as a prick sometimes. I have a "quirky" sense of humor, to say the least.

    anyhoo, I just do the "do unto others" thing and hope it works out. sometimes bad, but mostly good.

    plus as neighbor and all around goodfella yourowndamnself, your always welcome at the TarckShop aka my basement.

    when i found this forum, i didn't live in portland but rode fixed

    now i live in portland but don't have a fixed gear bicycle

    but i started an awful $8/hr job, so things are looking up

    i will shortly be both parts of the URL: pdx & fixed

    also: baggy pants are more comfortable than tight ones and sometimes have their advantages.

    also: i bought peaches to expand my range of fruits that i usually eat. that was a huge mistake, i'm gonna stick to bananas-grapes-apples-tomatoes-berries-citrus things

    also: peaches might be better if they came from somewhere other than winco

    also: besides lackluster fruit, winco is the best thing in the world if you are ever around gatewayish or clackamas
