Slacker

After a Turkey day of driving around Sacramento, the lost souls, old houses, and pseudo-intellectual-hip-o-phile-whiners somewhat remind me of Slacker--Richard Linklater's "groundbreaking and influential" indie film from 1991.  Sadly it's become a bit dated, but it's a great snapshot of a time when "indie" was on the cusp of becoming mainstream.

Just saw this at NYTimes.com 36 Hours in Austin Texas

Best Waste of a Sunday

Almost back on the bike

Due to insulin pumping issues, I've been off my bike for two crazy (and boring) months.  On Friday I (finally!) get my new Omni Pod hooked up--just in time for rainy winter riding.

Here's the Omnipod on someone in far better shape than me.
