New developments

Sideburnz and I finally went to Rainbow Books and Records.  We have discussed this for at least 6 months.  Finally the urge for a new record overcame us, and we made the trip.  (FYI: we ride our bikes past this store nearly once a week, so it wasn't really a trip).  It was definitely an experience.  Sideburnz put it best, its just disorganized enough to be fun.  Their books and records are sort of sorted by genera, but not quite.  There's definitely no order within genera.  I came home with the record find of the year: Leo Kottke, Ice Water 1974.  It features Pamela Brown.  Our pal Captain Richard once told us that he dated a girl named Pamela Brown and then Leo Kottke wrote a song about her.  I didn't think anything of that tall tale until Sideburnz said, "Hey this album has Pamela Brown on it," and then he reminded me of Captain Richard's story.  Maybe its really true!

Other good finds- Weezer CD featuring Buddy Holly, OkGo CD, To Kill a Mockingbird (reading material for me), and God Bless You Mr Rosewater aka Pearls before Swine by Kurt Vonnegut (Sideburnz book).  Good times.  I'm already anticipating our next trip.  There were a few other records that peaked my interest.

On another note, we are heading to Maui on Nov 26 for a bike trip.  The Sideburnz shop organized the trip.  For once, all I have to do is show up.  We'll see how frustrated I get.... I just became the proud owner of a Travelers Check- perfect timing.

Not much else is new except for recovering from my first half marathon.  Running down hill for the last mile of a 13.1 mile race makes me say ouch.  

I just asked Sideburnz if he wanted to comment... his comment, "I don't think so."

Over and out.
