That's no hub... It's a space station!

Daaaaaammn Dude...


Howdy fellers and fellas... sorry you had to see that display. Like watching a train wreck... frame by frame. Ol' Curly just can't kick a man when he's down. OK... he can... That was like watching homemade bike porn for Grizzly Adams, with the lead role played by Leif Garrett and filmed by a Kung Fu movie camera man... In some unibomber-style backwoods shed. Now that's how you sound editing...

OK... Gewilli... Coach Curly welcomes you dude and extends the proverbial "hand"... No, not the hand I showed you yesterday... the good hand.

It's that time again... Time I started my prep for the Des Moines Criterium... which is not that far away. I'm pretty amped that this will be the Master's State Crit champs venue AND that Mrs. Curly can share the burden... Now that she understands registration a little better. With that in mind she'll be about 5-6 weeks off of having lil' Curly 2... Now before ya git all bent outta shape, the mockup to the left is just that... a mockup... I only threw Sundt in there cuz he waxed everyones ass last year and used his usual flair in doing it... the zipping up of the jersey with 1 to go. Damn that would have been good to get on film.

City Council meetings have started and there's more support since people saw last years. Next task... take Des Moines finest to lunch at Mike's Mandarin Kitchen (the finest Chinese-style cuisine in Des Moines mind you)... and discuss closing 7th entirely. And no Martaint... I'm not lobbying to remove the turtles... Des Moines may be waterfront, but it's still Po'.

On tap for the weekend... the traditional Sat a.m. "Dads with no time to ride except 6:00 a.m." ride, followed by a trip to R&R to pick up the Chipper... oh yes... It's time to rent the chipper. Well you saw my pile from the Dogwood tree, but you have not see the Laurel clippings... or that I told a few of my neighbors that I was renting it "so, hurry up and prune yer overgrown trees"

Now in true "green" fashion... all of the chips go in the dog-poo containment area...

Yer trainin': You have a big race this weekend with Longbranch and all... just do the 15 minutes every hour for 24 hours... that should loosen up yer legs. ok...

Here's some stunning photoshop techniques done in Photoshop... this guy is inspiring for an Illustrator/Photoshop geek like Ol' Curly.
