Nice job Raffy! How many feet climbing? 1500? Sorry I had to make fun of the Florida crew. Did about 25 miles today. Felt good to be out.

Went out on a ride yesterday and I hit something and my tire went (I stayed upright). Whatever it was I ran over (it flew off and I could not find it), it went through the aluminum rim bed on my irreplaceable Mad Fibers. Had to get picked up because my second tube popped too because I didn't have anything to cover the holes. Thankfully my shop doesn't think there is an issue and hooked me up with tubeless conversion tape to cover the hole and the wheel is keeping pressure (with new tire and tube). If it was a different carbon clincher I would have been screwed. Always keep an eye on the road! Riding again today hopefully no bike damage.

Prime rib roast with bacon red potatoes, steamed vegetables, au jus, and stuffing (who needs to stuff stuff to enjoy stuffing). A most excellent meal. I may burst.

We are doing a conventional prime rib prime rib roast tomorrow. Going to be great

Happy birthday Ken!

I love TruCar. I negotiate by email with a few dealers and play them off each other. I always get the out the door price too even if I have to ask 3 times. After it is about where I want it I take that to my preferred dealer (TruCar or not) and ask them to match. Has worked to within $500 3 times.

Installed a 30+ sensors and got our new home security system installed. Very slick once it worked. Also discovered that the dumbass people who installed our garage door forgot a nut and to tighten some bolts. No more thunk it opens. 3rd thing they did wrong on the installation that I have fixed.

What is the point of a watch that you don't use? The only reason I was going to fix it was my dad gave it to me but he said he didn't care if I fixed it. I will probably fix next year some time anyway.

Thanks for the information Jacob. I am not sure if I care if it's working or not.

Installed new mantle over the fireplace and the requisite holiday decorations

Decided to contact one of the Breitling Approved service centers to see if they'd be willing to take a look. Part of the reason I'm sure it will be a fortune from Breitling is they basically re-condition the watch and it's in need of a lot of that. I don't want any of that done (except for maybe a few spring pins replaced). Emailed Breitling and asked them to cancel the service request and will follow up with a call once they open. I really don't necessarily care if the watch isn't working but it would be nice to get it fixed.

Well my Breitling Emergency started having a flashing screen last week (low battery) so ordered the correct battery and tried to do a battery replacement like I had done before. As I was opening the case my hand slipped and the watch and movement slid across the desk. Now it's totally dead though I can't see any physical damage or anything physically wrong. It just will not respond. This is going to cost a fortune with Breitling service USA. The only place I've ever wasted more money in a split-second is in a car.

Sorry Brent

The Official Head-Case Photography Thread.
Dreadhead replied to Knuckledragger's topic in Miscellaneous
I sort of regret making the statement and asking the question. I just wanted him to answer the question that had already been asked (and got a NOT FUNNY "I'm a stalker" answer to) and explained the reason for my curiosity in I think a respectful way. Technique and posing wise I found the pictures quite good. I now know that I need to be careful checking this thread at work but that's my problem and of course keep posting whatever you want. -

Fair enough as you say you can be both. Still not something that I would do but if they want to more power to them. Glad you were able to help them out. I don't understand your air quotes, they are women and there are two of them. Should I have used "these two people". There was no generalization implied or otherwise. -
Happy Birthday!

Honestly I don't really understand why these women are taking these photos. I have never had a body like they do but even then I doubt I would unless I wanted to be a model but they are med students. If they are/were for significant others then I would make damn sure they were private not just to be posted anywhere by the photographer. You making a fundraising calendar or something? -
Happy birthday Tom!
