When I was working at Cornell, we were talking with the new grad students in the department about the things we liked about living in Ithaca. Ithaca has SCADS of fireflies, aka lightning bugs. We asked them if they had fireflies where they came from. One young woman, who was from Georgia, said, "We don't have Fahr Flahs, but we do have Fahr Ants. Are they like that?"

Roundup (multiple varieties), Amdro, tetrathiazide, Spartan (for skeeters), skeeter dunks, Image, etc., etc., etc. Plus, a bunch of other stuff that you can't buy at Home Depot to keep the skeeters away.

Headset is tight again. I guess I'm have to take it as cry for help. Get out the tools and see what's what.

That Christian Walker is pretty sneaky. He occasionally has a hot bat too.

Some blue pills and an open wallet are all you need to appear to be 25 again.

That brings us to the 70s rock song of the day (almost) (it might've been recorded in 1979)

A young woman used to ride with us on this Trek. She also wore pink shoes, helmet, and jerseys. Miss her.

I wondered what happened to Sagan, didn't see him in the results when I looked briefly. Today I saw that he finished in 63rd and it was his first time at a gravel event. Also, he has had a number of physical issues including covid twice and hasn't spent much time on the bike this year. I think he still hopes to do the Tour, however.

I just can't make YouTube embed on the phone. Alas
