I received a new computer and monitor yesterday, no keyboard or other accessories. Thais is the packaging. There is even more packing hidden in the boxes.

Of course. Many have. I have heard of it being done because the label isn't readable from the drive side.

I bought a bunch of liquor at the beginning of this pandemic. Might as well.
Favorite drink of the pandemic is the spicy pineapple margarita.
1. Make a Pineapple Sour Mix: 1/2 cup freshly squeezed pineapple juice, and 1/4 cup each lemon juice, lime juice and sugar.
2. Rub the rim of your glass with lime and roll in homemade sriracha salt, garnish with lime and jalapeρo wheels, fill glass with crushed ice
3. Fill cocktail shaker halfway with crushed ice. Throw in a couple slices jalapeρo. Add 1oz each tequila and Grand Marnier and 2 oz Pineapple Sour Mix. Shake until shaker is frosty.
4. Strain into prepared glass.

As we get older it is typical to look back and reflect on our failures and successes. On the success side, me and Merlin Countryman won the 6th grade wheelbarrow race. We practiced and we were fast. I've always felt the wheelbarrow race should have been an Olympic level event but no one listens to me. That event is not a marketable skill but the luster of success will stick to a person and be of value later in life. Mixing up an awesome cocktail is a marketable skill. I predict a bright future for Heathpack.

Had a really good solo ride this morning. Although humid, temps were cool enough that I was quite comfortable. I expect Velo Vol would not approve, but I drank 4 bottles of water over the 4 hour ride.

Bought two expensive cheap bottles from my LBS via curbside service. Some guy dropped off a pair of fancy Sidis while I was there. Was he getting his ratchets serviced? His cleats replaced? Getting them shined?

Which bottles did you get? I need to get a couple new ones too, and probably will get the Camelbak Podium 24oz.

I have been invited to go on an epic ride with a handful of other cyclists for Friday. I think I will go, but I am askeered. They are serious cyclists and I am a notch or two weaker than most of them. I will certainly load the route into my Garmin in case I get dropped.
