Well, after 16 years of not riding my bike I finally went today thanks to the order from Performance Bike arriving early. I took about three rounds around the building's parking lot since I was having a hard time getting on the clip less pedals and the saddle … let's say I need a lot of training to do more than the 3.5 miles I did today at a measly 9.5 mph
Below is a link to my old 1988 GT Karakoram!

Congrats BG! That's awesome.
Al: good luck with the surgery.
Vicki: congrats!
Me, I brought my daughter over for a play date today and had a nice chat with my friends. Right now that's huge.
I currently have 2 old FW HDDs that need to be upgraded in terms of connectivity and capacity. I use one for media and one for backup. I don't think I need a big RAID setup, but I do want SSD. JBOD should be fine for the likes of me, right?
EDIT: just realized SSD is not really feasible in the size I need/want. Duh.
Also FWIW I have one of these and find it works great with both my Mac and PC. The data transfer times are very respectable over USB3. I wouldn't use it for an app drive, but it gets the job done for media and backups.

Left my house at 5:50 am to go and check on the roof work done at vacation place and make sure that the water was off with all the cold weather. I also needed to return $150 in attic insulation that wasn't used. Went smoothly and I got back home less than 3 hours later.
I also saw that the lake is almost back to its usual level after they drained it down 6ft to do work on the dam. Its going to be a fun summer with the family on the boat.
