  1. Exactly! It's as manly or as womanly or as HUMANLY as it gets!!! I love him, and he's done (and continues to do) a great job for us all!
  2. Yeah - I took a walk at lunch and my nose was treated the worst! Low 20s, so definitely in the teens with wind chill.
  3. In general, I break a chain once - to replace it. The only other time would be a derailleur swap. I used pins many times in the past and always felt happy with them. The last time I replace my 11sp chain on my Tarmac using the suppled quick link, it was a PITA compared to the pin. "Forcing" it to lock into place vs just screwing the pin in using the chain tool and breaking off that extra bit. Maybe if I was a big "off the bike" chain cleaner the quick link would make more sense. Even now, with a quick link on my Tarmac's chain, I don't have the tool to open it. Easier/cheaper to break the chain and replace the pin. But again, I might be way off base with this as I do it so rarely - new chain ever 2-3 years.
  4. Wise people avoid trains like the plague. Civilized travel is done alone in a large SUV.
  5. So, you won't admit you love SW????
  6. A Shimano 11sp "Quick Link" is $16.99. A similar SRAM "Power Lock" is $4.25. And Shimano's connecting pins are 3 for $11 ($3.67 ea). Why would people buy a Shimano quick link if it is supposed to be a one time use thing? Why wouldn't you break the chain with a chain tool and use a pin to reconnect it? What am I missing?
  7. In his basement? No way! If I'm riding a bike with @Square Wheels, it's up Mt Washington!
  8. ...and another Amazon delivery may also arrive today. That would hit 4 out of 4 for the week! How is @Wilbur? Still at 1 out of 3?
  9. ...but my bar mitts might arrive in time for a ride tomorrow! It doesn't say out for delivery, but it is the USPS, so it's anybody's guess if it got on my route's truck after it got to the branch this morning at 4:44am:
  10. That we LOVE @Square Wheels???
  11. I'm guessing @Randomguy dropped the ball on this one, too?
  12. Did we resolve this to @Randomguy's liking yet???
  13. No Sue, Susan, Suzanne, or Susie in the list I'm still hanging on at #58!
  14. My old dog's name! And at #57!!! Woot woot! None off the others, though.
  15. Isn't @Kzoo too old for a DDG???? FTR, I'm loving your "spoiler" use
  16. He started a TV and electronics company. He's pretty big!
  17. Why is today different???? Other people in the office?
  18. Well, obviously they can't defend themselves!
  19. Give him a couple years, and then he can enter the record books for the oldest guy to fly solo around the world!
  20. One of my wife's best friends is a Karen. She also worked with a Karen for years. One of my favorite coworkers from years ago was Karen, and I crushed hard on a girl named Karen in my 1st grade class Lots of Karens that I remember, so I wonder what made it "catch" as a thing?
  21. And, @MoseySusan, can we get some backing on getting deedeegee & deedeegeed & deedeegeeing into the dictionary???? Me and @Philander Seabury would appreciate it!
