Another After Work SURPRISE!

First there was Home From Work? SURPRISE Then came Off Work.. SURPRISE Today was part three in what I hope is only a trilogy in this Saga. Sorry. No photo to accompany this post, as there's nothing to photograph. When I drive to work, if the weather's okay, I'll only drive part way to work, park in free parking and then bicycle into downtown. This week was the first time I drove myself to work in months and the first time since last summer that I ditched the truck and cycled into the office. Today, all was fine aside from some bad weather. That's okay cold and a light rain was survivable on my way home from work. At work we have a locked compound to put our bikes into. When I got to the bike compound after work, I noticed that somebody took a pair of bolt cutters and cut the lock. Only 2 bikes remained in the compound, and I'll give you one guess who's bike wasn't one of them. I must have the shittiest luck with these things, and each time I have

The Bike Thief Returns.

I only wish I was there to witness this! I'd love to share a couple words with this individual. I was parking my bike in the bike compound... (Thanks Humvee for the free bike!) I opened the lock to the compound and noticed that ... ... If you look carefully you see the boltcutter imprint in the metal. I wonder what/who spooked the crook, but I wish it was me. Moral of the story. Lock your bikes in the compound!!

Christmas Trees Offensive? What Are You Smoking?

Last night, while watching TV from a Maritime Channel, I saw a "News Update" during the commercials. The anchor mentioned that [don't remember the public building] had a Christmas tree standing in it. People apparently complained saying they were offended by the tree. Hello? What are you smoking? What is offensive about a Christmas Tree? In my opinion, the two most abused phrases in our language are: 1. That's Racist 2. That's Offensive The racist one is a separate issue and I won't get into that now. That's Offensive! Let's look at the meaning of Offensive. (from dictionary.com) of·fen· sive adjective 1. causing resentful displeasure; highly irritating, angering, or annoying: offensive television commercials. 2. unpleasant or disagreeable to the sense: an offensive odor. 3. repugnant to the moral sense, good taste, or the like; insulting: an offensive remark; an offensive joke. 4. pertaining to offense or attack: the offensive movement
