leftyblonde: but I don't wanna go look for it.

Never mind. It's a sordid tale of trolling to the third degree.

I tolled them. Jeepers.
I told them I had a date.
Farkers don't date.

Pretty sad, a young woman who started working here a year ago passed away mysteriously over the weekend. Her mom has worked here since '86. And my friend in Security who was sick just passed away two weeks ago. There's a lot of sadness around here.
 
  2012-01-30 10:09:41 AM
dang, that's farked up, maybe it's the water or something

Ruffian: There's a lot of sadness around here.

As I sit here drawing pretty pictures on my computer, my attention is repeatedly drawn to my dad, who is sitting on my desk right this very minute. The experience borders on the surreal. Instead of Bring Your Dad to Work Day, I'm having a Have Your Dad Shipped to Work Day. He and his effects arrived Friday, while I was out sick. The secretary just brought me his box, and opened it and mentally cataloged the contents. Small box of ashes, several certificates of completion from the Floriduh DOT, where he worked for 30 or so years before retiring. A pic of him as a toddler, circa 1935. A pic of my brother at about 4 years old, looking dapper in his little suit. And a letter I wrote him back in 1979. I was all of 15, and quite the Man of the World, bragging about how some girl named Maureen kissed. Which he never answered.

The weird part: I can smell him. 38 years since he walked out of our lives, but I can smell him now.
 
  2012-01-30 10:31:26 AM
Sounds like it might have been alcohol poisoning for the young woman. Her mom found her unresponsive yesterday morning.

Sorry for your loss, Hammer, no matter how long he was out of your life. And I know what you mean with scent memory. My uncle george has been gone a number of years, but I'll still smell his cheap cigars from time to time.
 
  2012-01-30 11:01:53 AM
alcohol poisoning...that sucks, how much booze can you drink?
 
  2012-01-30 11:08:59 AM
Thanks, Ruffian. it's not so much a loss, except in the sense of what might have been. But, smelling him is fairly disconcerting. I think I'm going to have to take him down to the car.

All_Lit_UP_AGAIN: What model did you get?

I bought an overpriced gimmicky one. (You know the one.)

I looked at a serious one for the same price, but decided that I wanted the gimmicks instead.

If I just want to sit and spin, I can go to the gym.

knobglobbler55: alcohol poisoning...that sucks, how much booze can you drink?

Damn I am have been looking at that one. I just don't think I can get the wife to agree.
 
  2012-01-30 12:00:30 PM
it's fun

after this one falls apart, I'll get the Keiser M3 (or whatever M they will be up to by then)

but, hopefully, i can get a 3-5 years out of this biatch first
 
  2012-01-30 12:12:05 PM
You get the TDF meds?
 
  2012-01-30 12:16:19 PM
am i going to have to buy a helmet?
 
  2012-01-30 12:26:01 PM
I want this one Link (new window)
 
  2012-01-30 12:30:25 PM
we need your cookies first

so we can see it
 
  2012-01-30 12:34:02 PM
And I heard they just axed one of the Sr. VPs! What a farking day around this place. And the rumor is my VP is going to take over his shiat, too. That's one powerful snapper.
 
  2012-01-30 01:01:22 PM
Ha, I don't think they thought things through very well. They now have my VP's husband and sister-in-law reporting to her. That can't be good.
 
  2012-01-30 01:04:11 PM
Link (See if this works.)
 
  2012-01-30 01:06:38 PM
Yes that is the TDF I mentioned earlier.
 
  2012-01-30 01:10:18 PM
mine seems to be a mix of Gen1 and Gen2

i got the updated handlebars, but looks like they've also changed the seat

guess i should have waited a few weeks
 
  2012-01-30 01:11:38 PM
Your job sounds to be about as fun of a place to work at, as being kicked in the nuts by a rhinoceros.
 
  2012-01-30 01:13:37 PM
and i got the old console

and the old (higher) price
 
  2012-01-30 01:16:04 PM
i'm going to order an under desk bike for my office

like i said i was going to do 3 years ago.
 
  2012-01-30 01:54:23 PM
$1300 for a bike that goes farking nowhere...o.k.
 
  2012-01-30 02:03:34 PM
it does move
 
  2012-01-30 02:22:17 PM
I saw that a couple months ago and though, I bet Jax would buy that.
 
  2012-01-30 02:42:16 PM
geez just get a RealDoll and call it a day. I like that the dude has his helmet on, just in case you crash in your living room.
 
  2012-01-30 03:00:16 PM
hahaha...nice catch, knob.
Motorcycle and auto shows are coming. Going to check out that Triumph America. Signing up the motorcycle safety course this spring. Then we'll see where I want to spend my money.
 
  2012-01-30 03:49:17 PM
I would like it Milo. Too rich for my blood.
 
  2012-01-30 03:54:30 PM
Riding around in the summer there must be real nice, winter I guess no so much.
 
  2012-01-30 03:55:55 PM
What are all these "bells and whistles" that don't come on the gym bikes? I exercise on a bike every Monday night at the Y. It has all the electronics. What else can you get? Built-in-TV?
 
  2012-01-30 03:57:17 PM
adjustable rectal warmer is a sweet feature

HAMMERTOE: What are all these "bells and whistles" that don't come on the gym bikes? I exercise on a bike every Monday night at the Y. It has all the electronics. What else can you get? Built-in-TV?

Yes actually. This is a more realistic riding experience that can be programmed to simulate actual rides. Quite nice, but I would worry about the reliability.
 
  2012-01-30 04:46:19 PM
i haven't found the bell button yet, just the whistle
 
  2012-01-30 04:48:44 PM
Jaxom: reliability

chances are, it will break in a week

maybe i'll get that m3 sooner than anticipated

Bike messenger mode: time deducted for running read lights and there is an optional wall-mounting car door that swings open to put you on your ass.

Motherfarking SKITTLES!!! Ultimate brain candy!!
 
  2012-01-30 05:05:06 PM
And yes, knob, there is some good riding around here in the summer. Lots of country to the west and south, and over the border into Wisconsin where some of my family lives. Lots of county roads.
 
  2012-01-30 05:07:03 PM
You should do Bike Across Kansas (new window).
 
  2012-01-30 05:13:26 PM
I don't ride, but now I can die a little less slowly in front of the television.
 
  2012-01-30 05:14:02 PM
or is that more slowly?

/I suppose that depends.
