Also looks like the quote links are working fine. I was sure they would be but I had to be empirically certain.

In my area, phone company fios is quite reliable. Though I can say that for most of the other providers as well. Due to all providers new customer promotional pricing practices, we replace providers in 2-3 year rotations, so Ive pretty much used them all.

If I ever become a serious Zwifter, I would reconsider.

Verizon Fios is pricey but top of the line service, you shouldnt believe the cable companys scam ads.

That's what we have. And it's fine. But it does "freeze" for a second periodically, which is only a problem with Zwift.

As awesome as that shovel might be, it is the bench that caught my eye. A boyhood friend, a man I've now known for about 70 years, revived his early artistic talents that had been dormant during early child rearing years. His daughters got into horses and so the family traveled frequently to dressage events. As as a sideline he began making similar benches from black walnut trees he felled and milled himself. On the backrest, he carved a horse's head in perfect detail. As the family traveled to horse shows, he would take his benches to sell for $1500 each and he was selling everything he could produce to those horsey people. A fine way to offset the cost of owning horses.

Poor, terrified Delabear had to dodge a freight train yesterday. Hope they trap him today.

A side question, has that shovel actually been used? The label looks perfectly intact, without wear marks of any kind..... Might lead some to question if it has been truly tested for awesomeness, though it can be agreed that it looks awesome.
