This is it! The final day of the most pathetic fire season in a 20 year career. Yes, I know the whole goddamn West burned to the ground, but for some reason I was not invited. I got to sit here in Bubbaville and keep an Org chart in good working order. Sweet. Recent events, …

Has Been a Time, it Has
Been an action packed fun filled 9 months so full of chaos, time to ruminate and babble was not available. More to the truth, I have been busy, but lazy and have ignored this avenue of expression and horseshit flinging. Going to stick with the facts here and get into the deep bla bla bla …
Deep bike nerd babble. The contentious Kenda K270 tire.
Unless you are wayyyyy into moto tires, or just like how I rant about shit, this may not be interesting for you. I'll leave that ball in your court. So, when I got my KLR this past June the tires were used up and I did what all newbies do when confronted with such a …

Desert adventures, Aka Fuck X-Mas and all associated horseshit.
Being someone actively devoid of silly holiday traditions I chose the past few days to get the fuck out of Bend-Tourist Mecca and head into the desert. The plan was to get some ideas for trips based on the KLR and to see how the roads in the area matched the scant data available. Not …

Map Nerd Shit
Between morning cup of coffee 1 and 2 the little dinger on my phone went off letting me know of a new email. Fuck it, gonna get cuppajoe # 2 down before I read that. Half way through #2 I decide to check it out and what do ya know, school got cancelled due to …
Let the Party Begin…
Ughfuck. Trying to get a resume and cover letter built out of the mass of shit that is my govt application and slightly over the top employment history is less fun than one might imagine. Thankfully, a good friend/former tech recruiter has offered some guidance. I love her. On the update side of life, friend …
Kicking… And San Francisco is still a sweet visit
The past week containing Honky White Devil eatin' day made it worthy of note. A pack of us, including a 4 month old, jammed into a mini-van and drove 11 hours to the city by the bay for gluttony fest and checking shit out. The 4 month old: Yes, he's cute as shit. And rather …

The shittier the Wx, the better the adventure. That’s what I tell myself anyway…
Despite the severe wind warning NOAA was putting out, I felt it was the perfect day to head out into the desert for some solo riding. Winds on the way out were 40-50 and blew me into the oncoming lane a few times, but the lean traffic made it only scary, not deadly. …

Yes, I’m still alive.
No, I didn't scatter myself all over the fast lane of I-84 in Boise trying to get Thumper back home, if you follow this thing at all you will discover my posting style is rather sporadic. This will be continued in a day or two as I'm tired from an over long trail run and …
YEEEEEEFUCKINHAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
I did it. Survived another summer exile in the Arkansas of the Northwest and am soon to be blasting, well puttering- it is an old Subaru, back west across the desert to Bend. While the fire season was dismal here the time spent was not a total loss. I picked up Thumper, something I've been …
