Anyone have deepak's number? **BRENT**
-
My condolences. **BRENT**
-
I can do 10pm Thursday. **BRENT**
-
Thursdays are bad for me, but can do it after 9:30 eastern. I could possible do it via phone during the 7-9:30 block, but it'd suck. I think Nate said Thursday was bad for him too, no? **BRENT**

Glad you kids are OK. **BRENT**
-
Nice! Showed it to Xavier (my 8 year old.) "I want one!" **BRENT**
-
Dammit, Matt! **BRENT**

I'm in for keepers. **BRENT**

Thursdays are out for me as well. **BRENT**

I was actually a couple hours from breaking in my new running shoes. **BRENT**

For Dusty: heart attack, arm amputated, give me twelve hours to live. Thanks for looking out! (Seriously. I thought about a heart attack/stroke when the hand tingling came into play, but nothing else presented. It was a push to take the day and go to doctor though.) Everyone else: pinched nerve. Going with some icing and antiinflammatories and some range of motion exercises and a limited work release... And a follow up in a week. Thanks for the concern. It still sucks, and not sure what caused it, but we'll see if it gets better. Can do PT if it continues past next week. **BRENT**

FWIW, my kids are finishing up their second week (first full week.) How fun is that? **BRENT**

Doctor made me choose worker's comp or insurance. Wouldn't let me go insurance then WC later. Had to make 7 phone calls, multiple faxes, found out they won't let me go to my doctor so I had to drive across town to go to their crappier service. But hey, it's free. Probably. Maybe. I don't know. I don't know what's wrong yet, so I don't know if it's carpel tunnel, or something random, or what. Bah. **BRENT**

If I thought it was a heart attack at all, I would have been at a doctor already. As it stands, waiting for kids to go to school then figuring out which doctor to go to. My PCP started an urgent care clinic. Not sure about going there or finding a new a PCP or what. **BRENT**

Today I was sitting at my desk working. At some point, my shoulder started with the intense pain, and I couldn't lift my arm, and my hand was tingling. I think I'm probably dying. It feels better, but not good at all. May wind up hitting a doctor in the morning (already took tomorrow off just in case.) I don't like being old. **BRENT**

The Knuckledragger 3rd Memorial Slow Forum Post
MexicanDragon replied to Knuckledragger's topic in Off Topic
Some of you may know I used to be a decent yoyoer, and I kinda got back into it last year when I had multiple people show me the 2013 world championship winner's video. I could do part of what that guy did, then he just blew me away. I got to watch the live stream, and it had multiple angles and the quality was better than these vids, but those aren't posted yet. Til then... This guy got 4th. If he hadn't messed up so many times, he would have been second, easy, and it would've been hard for me not to pick him as the winner. 4th place in 2014 Worlds: Paul Kerbel Now, the US champion Gentry Stein went to take on the world, at 18 years old, and took them all down with one of the most well choreographed routines I've ever seen. While most of these guys are on throws costing 85-150$, Gentry Stein's signature throw, the Shutter, is only 45$, and on sale now for 36$. That's just insane. **BRENT** -
Yay for n+1 bikes! **BRENT**

Hey Dusty... Found something for you. http://turntablelab.com/products/pro-ject-dinosaur-jr-custom-debut-carbon-turntable-purple Finally for sale, a month or two late. **BRENT**

I just want deepak to play so I can watch him cry when I beat him out for third place. Keepers sound good to me. I like the PPR where it is, out of habit, but fine with whatever you guys want. **BRENT**

I think you should just get a new fit when you get your new bike... And then have them set up the C'dale as well for a few bucks. **BRENT**

Tour de Cure - Chattanooga, TN - May 17, 2014
MexicanDragon replied to MexicanDragon's topic in Off Topic
So our May ride got rained out (the family friendly ride). Today, however, was our makeup ride and wrap-up party. About 15-20 of us made it out to do a ten mile ride at the riverpark, along the TN River. Xavier and I rode, and he was the youngest participant by at least 6 years. We wound up being swept and came in right as they were serving burgers and grilled chicken sandwiches. We ate lunch, had the award ceremony (where our team won largest team), and then we said goodbye for a few more months to some Diabetes association friends and we signed up to do the 25 mile ride together next year. After everyone packed up, Xavier wanted to ride some more, so we did enough to make him realize he needed some bike shorts, so we called it a night and headed home. Thanks to everyone who supported us and the cause to help Diabetes awareness and research, it's really appreciated! All in all, we raised 123,000$ in the Chattanooga Tour de Cure! A little short of our goal, but still a pretty solid showing. <3 Brent -
You're a horrible person. **BRENT**

Hey Head-Case, what's your bandwidth like?

Not bad for LTE While doing 70mph in between EDGE spots In rural TN. **BRENT** -
I say go bike shopping for new carbon, and find a better lbs to fix the C'dale. One bike just isn't enough. Also, get a vintage steel Colnago. And a Ti Serotta. That's a good start. **BRENT**
