oh, just a nature video
i get the feeling that an upcoming pixar movie will be based off of these guys.
relativity
a couple of interesting things happened yesterday:
1. i outpaced and passed a guy on the bike trail who was riding a bike that cost over twice as much as mine.
2. i checked the resale value of my car and i realized that it is worth less than my bike.

bicycling magazine names minneapolis america's best bike city
this article wonderfully captures the minnesota mentality, and not just regarding bicycling either. we're a kind, sweet bunch of blond-haired, blue-eyed scandinavians but underneath we're tough as nails and will keep rolling through any weather.
my favorite line: "all i ever hear about is how cool portland is. who rides through the [shiz] we do? we ride more by accident then they do on purpose."

worst opening lines in literature
Winner: Fantasy Fiction
The wood nymph fairies blissfully pranced in the morning light past the glistening dewdrops on the meadow thistles by the Old Mill, ignorant of the daily slaughter that occurred just behind its lichen-encrusted walls, twin 20-ton mill stones savagely ripping apart the husks of wheat seed, gleefully smearing the starchy entrails across their dour granite faces in unspeakable botanical horror and carnage – but that’s not our story; ours is about fairies!
