Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

No dimples, but it sure looks aero. Bet you could hook up a straw to the drink bottle in the breathing tube thing without much trouble.

I filed my tax return a full 20 minutes before the deadline. I'm so on top of things. Oh yes.

E-file. It would have been cutting it pretty close if I had to go to the post office.

I went by there earlier in the afternoon and the police already had barrels set up to efficiently funnel vehicles through the drop off-zone. There's even tents erected for the festivities.

I had to go to the post office earlier to send a check to the money market account. I think I'm going to solicit Mr. Markets to be my financial mentor.
