As Far As I Can Tell


Moped Army BBQ 8

During my absence from the Internet most of my time was spent either planning for, or participating in Moped BBQ 8. The photos from that weekend are now online. There’s the official Moped Army photo gallery of 105 low resolution images, and because you take the time to read my weblog I’ll link to the 553 image, hi-res member photo pack too. The latter will only be up for around a month.

If the photos don’t tell the story well enough, it was an amazing weekend. The dedication of the people who came from so far away blew my mind. Fifty person rides, a relay race, taking over 4 lane streets. The Moped Army is getting to be exactly what I’ve always hoped it could be.

i’m starting to consider getting a moped and maybe even starting the ever-elusive chicago chapter. i have to admit that seeing those pics and reading “zen and the art of motorcyclce maintenance” is what is prompting this little thought in the back of my head. i’m too scared to get a harley but a moped i think i could handle. ;) i’ll be sure to order from ya’ll (or get a fixer and bring it to the shop) if i do. drop me a line if you’d like to discuss (and keep posting—it’s been nice!).

After so many years of being cynical, I'm surprised by how moved I was while watching Obama's speech. This is it, our chance for change.

Haircuts are one of the few times when I'm forced to just sit still and relax.

Evernote is the perfect "clip queue." Really amazing.

I love my headphones. The sound is so spatially separated that just now I swore I heard a noise downstairs while listening to Diplo.

Working on a conference abstract, so far it's a little obtuse.

Reminded again of the importance of backups. Sorry Isaiah.
