Yes, have one

Had a wonderful ride to work this morning. Everything was popping, the sun was out and the flow of traffic always favored my narrow and specific line. The buses were uninterested in squeezing together as they usually are at Jefferson and Adams. I've been practicing my trackstands at intersections. Why? Shouldn't I be practicing in the alley away from traffic? Yes, good idea.

Now, I'm not sure how many of my readers give a rip about fixed gear bicycles (gotta ride one to do said trackstand). But, if you're new to the concept and at all interested in learning about a whole new take on riding then check out Sheldon Brown's 'Fixed Gear for the Road' for the supremo article on the subject and The Fixed Gear Gallery to peep other's fixies. And don't say I never did anything for you.

Not to change the subject or anything but let's talk about food. A few items I'd like to bring to the table...(sorry)

First, the Ultimate Blogger contest is underway. Their initial challenge was to blog about that pitfall entry that we've all read: food. You know you've seen it before, "I really don't have much to blog about today so I'll tell you what I had for dinner." Not fun to read! That is, until now. The contestants got really creative and most are a good read.

Some other well done (sorry) food-on-blog things that come to mind: The City on Film's do you love artichokes? and Flying Arrows (scroll down) tells/shows you how to make guacamole. Impress your friends; good to know.

Work splurged and bought everyone Potbelly's sandwiches today. We filled out our order on their handy fax form and are currently poised for that delivery guy to ring our bell. I went with the 'V'. That's the vegetarian. Who cares!

And lastly but not leastly, my pal Quinn's blog is called Lunchblog. Lunch, food, props, yeah.
