that not so fresh feeling

June 5, 2012

Consider the lifespan of an OE bottom bracket. Now imagine riding it for another year or so beyond what is considered rideable and that‘s where we were until Sunday when I replaced it along with the shark-toothed big ring, the chain and the cassette. If this was smellavision you could get a real feel for what it was like and if I was still a messenger I’d be embarrassed by the sounds my bike was making    crying out for help.   



Is it raining?

this is my favorite Is-it-raining? haiku

Elevator ride
You ask about the weather
I am soaking wet

 

if I was still a messenger, my socks would be wet for the next 9 hours but I wouldn't be embarrassed by the smells my shoes were making

Sometimes on really rainy days I would suspend my "Try not to fart on the elevator" rule as it would blot out the foot stank

copy that. I'd still be reading entire issues of the New Yorker. And spending a lot more money on beer. cheers
