+ "I always look out for bikes," said the Hyundai driver to me as I picked up my bike and assessed the situation. Bike: in tact, body: fine/little sore. I responded with, "I know, you always look out for bikes." This only fuels my One Less Car attitude. It's me vs. them. But I'd like to coexist, if possible.

+ I was wearing my "Keep on bikin'" t-shirt when this happened. Exactly.

+ That Sith movie was better than expected. I loved it actually. Any criticism that I've heard went right out the window. The way the clones turn on the Jedis is probably one of the saddest movie moments I can remember. Tear.

+ Modern Temper drummer and all around swell kid Matt Malloy has been working on a remix of my song 'Oh Randomness.' I'm really looking forward to hearing his take on the song. And, I had a great conversation with Chris from Grizzly Bear about the aesthetic of remixes in general and how different people go about the process. Expect some files soon Chris.

+ It is not cheap to ship a computer and/or bike (or anything "big") overseas. I knew this already though. It's now confirmed. Laptop?

+ Cubs on the West Coast kicking the shit out of Los Angeles and San Diego: Priceless.

+ Baseball players, in general, have really moved away from a classic look. Now it's all long pants and goatees. Me and the OG Mountain Man have had many discussions on this. We recommend players move back to stirrups and mustaches. Thank you.

+ np: 'Cruel Summer'
