I would say the strength of the reaction is about 50% of #2, and coincidentally the dose of the shot was also 50% of the first two.

Flooding expected tonight, with rain starting this afternoon. Guess I picked a bad day to go back to work.

Crashes?....what are those?


my best was on a road with a steep incline at a hywy junction. On the way up I shifted down to the small ring, but the derailleur didn't shift due to the massive amount of force I was exerting climbing in the big ring. Near the top of the incline I let up a little on the pressure. The derailleur took that opportunity to throw the chain off to the inside. When that happened all my weight went forward over the bars, which which then flipped full right, and down I went. Left knee onto the spokes of the front wheel, stretching 2 of them so bad I had to loosen the cable on the brake . Broke my shifter, and crankset too.

LSS is on the hunt for a new coffeemaker, not happy with her current “piece of crap”, her words not mine. We use separate coffee makers, she is fussy about her coffee, and not a French press fan. Likes to start with whole beans. What recommendations do we have on the high end or semi-high end?

None, but I note the use of "LSS" with approval and mention in passing that I just broke our less fancy French press, which I was using instead of the drip machine because my LSS is out of town.

At that point, and after a gram of APAP, I was fool enough to do a 20 mi workout on the way to work and it was precipitously downhill from there. ¡Bueno suerte, hermano!

I don't really do drip, but the Moccamaster Technivorm is supposed to be one of the better machines out there. And then there's St James Hoffman's personal choice -
