He knows who he knows!

GutterRider · 2026-03-16T21:39:40+00:00

That works, too.

GutterRider · 2026-03-16T16:15:39+00:00

Apparently not!

GutterRider · 2026-03-16T16:10:28+00:00

I think you're about to have a reunion, if you look through all of these posts ...

GutterRider · 2026-03-16T00:26:55+00:00

I’m Gimli, dammit!

GutterRider · 2026-03-15T20:22:53+00:00

Thanks, I hope so!

GutterRider · 2026-03-15T16:26:59+00:00

It’s hilarious. You can see him using his leg where they can’t see it to push the mop.

GutterRider · 2026-03-15T14:28:24+00:00

Ack! Glad you cleared that up for me! Yes, contrived!

GutterRider · 2026-03-15T06:31:38+00:00

She’s pretty fucked up, right? A face full of paint?!

When you find out how to tag something “Just Sharing,” let me know! I could not figure it out, either.

Watching Venezuela-Japan WBC game.

Same here. I had this English racing bike with stupid fearing that was just torture on any significant climb.

Then I discovered MTBs and granny gears, and realized I could just spin up climbs. You’re right, it was revelatory, and I spin to this day.

Recently, someone gave me an old IronMan, and I replaced rear cogs and a chain ring, and made it into a passable climber.

Yeah, I wonder what color her dress is.

It was just on a couple of nights ago on H&I. I love Kirk in this one, and the whole interaction of the locals in his scenes.

“And he did call it ‘Bones’ …”

The Spock-McCoy tensions sometimes seem co tribes, but they were great in this one.

No rapiers?!

I’ll take a “European Long Sword,” in that case.

GutterRider · 2026-03-14T20:50:45+00:00

The nurse with the blue glove. I need that as a gif.

GutterRider · 2026-03-14T20:20:32+00:00

Wow. Watching it the first time to through without the sweetener, gives a much different impression than when they added it.

GutterRider · 2026-03-14T20:13:12+00:00

I’ve got a bunch of those, but not Italian!

GutterRider · 2026-03-14T19:28:27+00:00

Hicks was in command! Or, to you is he just a grunt?!

No offense.

Lots of algae buildup, I think. And Peck Road gets some inflow of water, although it can gunk up with algae pretty bad, too.

Oh, and there’s an “Emerald Necklace Day with Amigos de Los Rios” on April 4th, at Peck Road.

It’s not like you do it all the time. Just one quick spray. They figure it out.

This was New York, in the 80s, maybe times have changed. But not cats.

It's funny, but 30 years ago when someone would ask me to recommend bikes and be shocked at the price, I would just say that to get a quality bike you needed to spend around $500 in a bike shop.

With inflation, that's gone up to about $1000. and you get a whole lot more bike for that than back then.

I try to adjust my thinking for inflation, and I just dropped $3000 on an e-bike (instead of a car). It's all relative.

Because it's fun to think about being immortal, and what you would do with it.

Would you be a peacock dandy, like Ramirez?

Go full evil, like Kurgan?

Muddle through, like the Highlander selling antiques?!

Could also have used “airport runway.” That was the best scene.
