I went to Red Robin with my wife last night.  That's why the low PM mileage.  Those Royal Red Robin Burgers are delicioso!

You survived the fall!!! Yeah.

I'm afraid my cell phone didn't fare so well. Only half of the inside screen displays now. (Is it fare or fair?)

From Kelli on Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 16:36:36 from 71.219.76.64

That would be FARE.

From Burt on Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 16:48:45 from 68.76.197.194

But it's not fair. No pun intended. Okay, pun intended.

I'm glad you bounced back so quick. Is your bike OK? I am in fear of anything bad happening to my bike. I would probably try to shield my bike with my body if we ever went down (:

It is the night. My body's weak.

I'm on the run. No time to sleep.

I've got to ride.

Ride like the wind to be free again.

And I got such a long way to go.

To make it to the border of Mexico.

So I'll ride like the wind.

I was born the son of a lawless man.

Always spoke my mind with a gun in my hand.

Lived nine lives

gunned down ten.

Gonna ride like the wind.

And I got such a long way to go.

To make it to the border of Mexico.

So I'll ride like the wind.

Ride like the wind.

Ride like the wind.

Accused and tried and told to hang

I was no where in sight

when the church bells rang.

Never was the kind to do as I was told.

Gonna ride like the wind before I get old.

Auntieem - riding a road bike is so awkward. When I was riding my Huffy around as a kid I had a lot more control. If I was going to wreck, I could usually jump off and throw the bike and land on my feet. My wreck the other day was like - ok, let's see where I land and try to roll with it. LOL.

Paul - Who the heck is Christopher Cross? You so crazy.
