The Bike Box: February 2010

http://thebikebox.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

First, do no harm. All else follows. Saturday, February 27, 2010. Mike Doughty Show, Club Congress, Tucson, AZ 2/26/2010. If you recall, back in December I had the opportunity to interview Mike Doughty over the phone for WickedInfo. I felt like, and I know for a fact, having reviewed the taped evidence, I sounded like a dork. So it was with some hesitation that I went to the show- I wondered if I should mention that I was the guy who did that interview. The show was great. Hes on  a. I can only imagine h...

First, do no harm. All else follows. Monday, September 27, 2010. We received two hatchling desert tortoises from a friend of a friend. They're cute! I never thought of Munch as a big tortoise but compared to the hatchlings she's enormous! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Stay At Home Grandpa Blog. 47 years old, married (thank you!

First, do no harm. All else follows. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Silhouettes of predator birds? No These are all unsightly solutions. It just so happens that the perfect solution came along accidently and it only cost $2 plus tax! Well, wouldnt you know it? They hang in front of the door between the real hopseed and the reflective glass. Since I hung them up there hasnt been a single dove hitting the door- at least not that I have heard or seen.

The Bike Box: The Boules Had A Baby And They Named It Crusty Roll

http://thebikebox.blogspot.com/2011/05/boules-had-baby-and-they-named-it_30.html

First, do no harm. All else follows. Monday, May 30, 2011. The Boules Had A Baby And They Named It Crusty Roll. Let it be known that I am a man of leisure. This means that if I think something can be done more easily, in a way that will save me effort, I will inevitably work twice as long and twice as hard to find out. Do I want to stir my infant levain every few hours and risk inadequate oxygenation? Of course not. Something mechanical and unnecessary is certainly required. Thus the birth of the. Waterm...

The Bike Box: July 2011

http://thebikebox.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html

First, do no harm. All else follows. Monday, July 18, 2011. Gibsonton, Florida: Gib Town, Freak Town, Show Town. Last nights episode of The Glades (cool show, check it out) featured Gib Town Florida, also known as Freaktown, Showtown, or more correctly, Gibsonton, FL. The town on the show wasnt so much the town I remember. During my short stint in the carnival business I saw a guy beaten nearly to death by a swarm of carnies because a girl identified him as the guy who supposedly attacked her in some way.

First, do no harm. All else follows. Saturday, August 7, 2010. SunChips Go Compostable, Week 21/13. Slowly but surely is the motto, I guess. Theres not a lot change week to week but I did add a small detail section that (hopefully) shows translucent and broken spots in the bag where it is finally starting to break down in a noticeable fashion.

The Bike Box: Frito-Lay and SunChips Back Away From Environmentally Sound Packaging

http://thebikebox.blogspot.com/2010/10/frito-lay-and-sunchips-back-away-from.html

First, do no harm. All else follows. Thursday, October 7, 2010. Frito-Lay and SunChips Back Away From Environmentally Sound Packaging. Frito-Lay will continue to offer the Original Flavor SunChips in the new bag, but it is discontinuing the use of the bag in all other flavors. Apparently those whiny secret snackers only eat the more exciting flavors like Harvest Cheddar and Garden Vegetable. The company plans to do further research to find a quieter alternative. I suspect doing so will involve chemic...

First, do no harm. All else follows. Saturday, November 14, 2009. Hero of the Day. Hmm, never thought about it really. Doesnt matter because I wont remember to follow through on it anyway. But, I have a nomination for my Hero of the Day and, well, he wins because he was the only one nominated and Im the only judge. Anyway, we were coming home from the JDRF Walk this morning and there was a guy on Campbell moving a coffee table. No big deal, right? We should all do more of that (myself included). Anyway, ...
