It was 40 degrees yesterday. A guy I work with took pictures of another guy riding a motorcycle on his way in to work. Today it was in the teens.

My mountain bike does that. I didn't know until one time I drove 45 miles to a ride start and I guess the day before I had the wheel off and when I put it back on it was a little wonky. I pulled the axle out and I thought it was broken. Finally figured it out and went riding. I used a piece of stiff wire to push the pawls down. Kept checking it every time we stopped because I wasn't sure.
I seem to recall seeing some decent-ish prices ($50-60 ea) on the Michelin Power Roads the other day. Inventory on 28s is running pretty thin across the board, though - it's almost as if they've become the new default enthusiast size....

Why the hell, for instance, can’t people get non-counterfeit masks, testing free and on demand without a long wait, adequate ventilation and filtration in schools and public places, and public health agencies that can speak and act openly and effectively? What are we, Russia?

We did too and fine. Most of us will need them. The issue is the lack of coordinated effort. For instance, you test positive and isolate, but who is gathering the data for your community and helping you and your neighbors to use the info to make the decisions which reduce or balance risk across the society? Public health policy is not something we can push to the individual level and hope to open schools safely.
A smooth, well oiled machine.

It's inevitable. With 5g none of the old kludge is going to work anymore. This is just more planned obsolescence.

Yeah, there's a rubber gasket on the Zipps and they recommend pulling that down and over the pawls before inserting, but that gasket doesn't always seem to re-seat cleanly, so I just leave the gasket in place to do gaskety things and I use whatever thin-bladed tool that I have on-hand to nudge the pawls.

I think another aspect of it is that we in America tend to see going to work sick as normal. You only take time off if you feel so bad you can barely get out of bed. My crazy old boss used to brag about the time he came in and did an assay with 102 degree fever.

we had a guy @ my co. who came to work to attend a meeting 3 days after open heart surgery. A lot of people treat him like he's a legend, but I'm leaning more towards lunatic.

And we wonder why other countries have been beating us in life expectancy.

For me, Carson had been the host for a while before I knew the Tonight Show existed. I think I started watching it in junior high, because my Dad would fall asleep in front of the TV and thus not enforce any kind of bed time, and I've always been a night owl. So he'd been the host for almost a decade by then, and he continued as the host as long as I was still paying attention. By the time he retired, I wasn't watching the Tonight Show anymore and so I mostly missed the Leno years.

But then again. Back in the day as a carpenter, I got on @ the auto show. Which is big money, lots of o.t. back when things were tight. They use a lot of mdf, the dust from cutting that stuff is nasty. I got an upper respiratory infection from it. After a week of 12+ hour days working sick. My Forman put his hand on.my shoulder, I was down on all 4s fishing some wires out of a access hole in a false floor. I had apparently sweated through my carhart coat. I didn't want to get laid off so I kept coming in to work. He forced me to go to the Dr. Told me he'd lay me off of I didn't go. Nicest guy I ever worked for.
