^^That looks amazing!





Love that show. :p


Kenny Powers:

(talking to teachers)
"I just figured I might as well look the part .... Just a normal, regular teacher with no hopes or dreams, absolutely nothing, just waiting to die. Just like you guys."

"Its time I accept the fact that the glory days of my life are now behind me. Just like Neil Armstrong, I went to space and now I’m back, and nobody gives a *****."


By far one of the most quotable movies/tv shows out today. It's something you have to watch over and over again, so as to not miss what you were laughing through the first time.

One of my favorite parts of the series is when he yells "hold on to your ****" and jerks the wheel to the left, running into the boat off the road. Then, tries to convince Stevie that he was the one driving, because they were both drunk and he makes him his assistant for it. Absolutely hilarious.

If anyone reading this post hasn't seen it, there's only 6 episodes on itunes and it's extremely cheap. It's definitely worth a watch.

Price-wise, around the same or more.

I bought them off a sunglasses website (one of many out there) that sells "last year's model". I bought them for $140 each, and am having them ship to Australia. They sell for over $300 Australian dollars, so when I ordered from the US, I purchased 2 pairs to save myself the hassle after I lose them. :eek:

Oh, and yes they're real. They're one of the only companies who use real glass lenses, and their lenses selectively filter out some wavelengths/colours better than others, making them pop. Also, they get slightly darker when it's bright outside, and lighter when it's dark. They're sort of like "Transition" lenses, except they don't change as drastically. These glasses would be difficult to fake. If you ask an optometrist what he thinks of Serengeti, I'm sure he'll tell you they're probably the best lenses in the business. ;)

The designs are OK, but they don't do the crazy trendy designs. That's OK though. I don't want massive plastic glasses that make me look like a bug. :p Just give me my medium aviators and I'm set.

thanks! they sound great. looking to get some aviators and was just gonna go Ray Bans, but these look like a good alternative, and from googling it looks like they are the pilot's choice too.

Made it! Base i3 21.5 inch iMac for dad's 60th birthday! :D

Posting from it right now :)

Happy Birthday to your dad! :)

Thinking of getting one, how does the display look? Any yellowing? Backlight bleed? How about dog whistle or abnormal hard drive sounds?

After about 4 hours of usage, it is absolutely PERFECT. No sounds, no screen issues, it was an excellent deal. I recommend it! And thanks! :)

My Profile Design Airwing OS bars came in today! :) It's too bad I did a TERRIBLE job wrapping them and need to redo it sometime before spring time. For now I'll just deal with it since there aren't many riding days left (this weekend was frigid!).

And yes, I stick my bike in the wall vertically. :p

Just picked up a few accessories for my new s95. Got the camera just to try it out since I have a m4/3 camera already. The s95 is just more pocketable and better on the go!

Got a ggs screen protector and a black everready case. Looks good as a half case.

Always liked your t1. And the large rim in rear, small rim in front combo.

I also want:

1. A crazy wall mount for my bike.

2. Another bike. :eek:



I was actually looking at one this Saturday (2 days ago). Then yesterday, I sprained my foot, so I couldn't continue test-riding. :eek:

I'll probably wait and see how much I get back after my tax return. :)

Thanks! I secretly also want a fancy front wheel, but that's not terribly practical when it could be stolen in a few seconds. The front wheel I currently have... I really don't care what happens to it; and that's a good thing.

I used to have a Miche Pistard set with a 24h radial front. Now THAT was dangerous. In more ways than one.

Is it just wedged in that door, or do you have a wall mount there somewhere?

Your pic makes me want to add upgrades to my bike.....

It's the panel that covers my central AC unit. Turns out the little grooves in it are just enough for 23c tires pumped up to 80-100 psi to jam into. :)

Getting into bikes can be an expensive, and exponential, process. Chances are you'll go through the following steps: Bike lust, bike purchase, component purchases, another bike purchase, more component purchases, sudden realization that you're spending too much cash on bike ****, post 2 dozen Craigslist ads, repeat.
