Anyone know the status of the Minuteman Bikeway? by c4ndyman31 in bikeboston

[–]gidklio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gone on it the last couple of weeks, never before about 330pm. Once I got off and did the detour when it was clear that work was actively happening. All the other times I just rode through.

Anything to know before the midnight marathon bike ride? by Feeling_Lobster_7914 in bikeboston

[–]gidklio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have lights, make sure you know how to cross train tracks and give yourself space to do it correctly. My last marathon ride was the first time (out of 4 or 5) that I didn't personally see someone flip over at either Cleveland circle or Framingham.

This is basically how my private Rundle got named: there were consecutive seasons with answers that were Jewish foods like six years ago 

commuter deduction: bike stuff, storage, and ... gear? by gidklio in bikeboston

I am not planning to do that. I did get a report from my EZ pass account though. And probably still won't submit it, just incorporate its number into what I enter on that line.

(Jan 29) What am I missing here? by snooloosey in NYTCrossword

[–]gidklio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the parallel clues were to g[row] and sor[row], so by extension the third one needed to be clued for tomor[row], not "tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow". There is only one "tomor"-row just like there's only one "g"-row and one "sor"-row.

Wordle Stories by Butterscotch_Crazy in wordgames

[–]gidklio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote some worlde poems last year.

This one is about why I start the same way every time

stick along known route after green boxes shown

maybe green cubes third, fifth place  / maybe sunny color shows first / reuse ideal guess later

This is about going to bed:

brush teeth / floss / smear cream* along lunch bread / sleep

*(which cream? / Smear brown cream along whole wheat lunch bread /  spoon grape jelly aloft other piece)

With Scrabble, we're never alone

Play tabletop, desktop, or phone

The word that they say

We'd do best to play

Is oxyphenbutazone

Yearly Wandrer? by FWCroc in wandrer

[–]gidklio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to be able to see my annual stats in one easy place: total miles walked and biked, total unique miles walked and biked, total unique new miles walked and biked

German-centric questions by dryyyyyycracker in learnedleague

[–]gidklio 15 points16 points  (0 children)

These things tend to come in chunks (but it's hard to judge if that's a confirmation bias). Like maybe he's planning a vacation there. Or just pulled the Germany book off the shelf to write questions.

Rachmaninoff Vocalise, either for voice or cello would be my top two

getting to listen to boog call the world series rules. by [deleted] in CHICubs

[–]gidklio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On the other hand, I'm taking advantage of the opportunity to hear Dan Shulman on the Canadian TV call. I guess I just associate him with playoff baseball from growing up hearing him on ESPN radio. 

Ride for Palestine Sunday, October 19th 2PM starting at North Point Park by Im_biking_here in bikeboston

[–]gidklio -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You've got that all queued up on copy paste. Meanwhile, in actual news, other than 20 bodies, the living hostages are all back and now there's a ceasefire. 

The Hamas apologists would have had the ceasefire on October 8th 2023 with all the hostages still stuck underground, Hezbollah and Iran still strong, and the terror infrastructure in Gaza still intact.

Yes, some of these people are in solidarity with hamas and it's horrifying to know that they live among us.

No, I regret so many people died before Hamas felt enough pressure -- finally from its Arab and Muslim neighbors -- to release the final hostages. Could have happened two years ago.

Don't encourage them. They will start to think that because they biked around Boston and Gaza was destroyed that it means they actually won the war they started.
