I think I don't know diddle about competitive cycling. I go with the
flow. Don't know what it's like out here, but you can even get on a
city bus with a bike (assuming they have a rack on the front).
Sometimes if the wind is in my face, I take the friggin bus back.

Wimp! LOL! You haven't seen winds until you've ridden in the Keys. The
wind is blowing more often than not. Often times it's 15-30mph out of the
North East - just brutal on the long ride back. Fun and fast on the way
down. One time we did 30 miles with a strong tailwind in just over an hour.

I'm willing to struggle for a while, but at some point I wimp out. :-)


Yeah... I'm not a huge beer drinker, but once in a while is great.


Beer is better after a hot afternoon sailing than hard liqour because it
doesn't have very much alcohol. Doesn't go to your head so fast. A couple
cold bottles after an afternoon's sail once the boat is anchored and squared
away with maybe a little something cooking on the barbeque is just so
enjoyable.

Hey, I'm a light-weight! One beer every two hours (max two) is about
all I can take!

I have to give at least six months notice if I take a vacation. :-(

Wow, your services must be greatly in demand.

We don't have a lot of staff. Someone was sick today, and we had a
backlog. That's why I got home so late.

But, the good news is that I have four weeks accrued.

And, six months from now you'll probably have five weeks accrued. :-)

Yup!

I don't like lightening at all either... forget that sh*t!

I don't mind humidity... just doesn't bother me that much.

Me neither. I kinda like hot and humid weather. It makes me lose my appetite
and it's easier to sweat off a few pounds because of it. Thinner is
definitely better in hot and humid weather.

I feel sorry for tubs of lard in hot weather. Of course, they have an
advantage in the snow. :-)
