Went mountain biking with a friend today. Beautiful day: 70 degrees, sunny, no clouds.
About 20 minutes in, my rear wheel dropped out of its dropouts. That caused the rear derailleur to get caught in the spokes. That bent the derailleur, and the derailleur hanger, and the rear skewer.
$135 to fix.
Bah!
Speaking of skewers:
My wife and I can't say the word "skewers" without saying it the way he sings it: skyooOOWEHrs!/ (~1:05)
Several Republicans have criticized President Obama for placing new limits on the use of U.S. nuclear weapons, but Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., raised eyebrows among liberal foreign policy observers by suggesting during a Wednesday rally with Sarah Palin that the American nuclear arsenal is needed even to deter cyber attacks.
"If in fact there is a nation who is compliant with all of the rules ahead of time and they've complied with the United Nations on nuclear proliferation, if they fire against the United States a biological weapon, a chemical weapon or maybe a cyber attack, well then we aren't going to be firing back with nuclear weapons," Bachmann said. "Doesn't that make us all feel safe?"
This country's going insaaaaannnne.

I never would've suspected that the grassy astringency of Japanese mecha green tea (today's cup of tea) and the salty peppery meatiness of JerkyUSA's pork / cranberry jerky (today's mid-morning snack) would work well together.
But, they do!
This is a glorious day to have a mouth.
I have another bit of knowledge to share: do not do a Google image search on "mouth", unless you have a strong stomach.
No, really. Assassinating American citizens is unacceptable.
Draw up the papers. Start the process.
