What is is about ordering a pizza to eat by yourself that makes the pizza seem that much better?
Of course, it helps that they seem to have put EXTRA pepperoni on my already double-pepperoni pizza .. mmmmmm 
We’ve been in a rut. We’re either biking or we’re sitting on the couch. For several weeks, we’ve been surviving on pizza and taco bell – for lack of any better ideas.
So, last night, I decided we needed a change. We splurged on a $21/half bottle chianti at the local Italian restaurant and had a fantastic meal.
I’m not sure I’ve ever paid $21 for a half bottle of wine, but I must say, it was yummmmy
After that, I didn’t feel so bad about going home and sitting on the couch, watching two more episodes of The 4400 … That show is like crack! Only one more episode and we’re caught up to to the new episodes showing on USA… which is a mixed blessing .. because after we watch our last recorded episode, we’ll have to wait a whole week between episodes … *sigh* I suppose worse things can happen … heh ..
SO, I’m driving home after a long, hot, and weird day at Boyne Mtn .. and I’ve been passing cars wtih bikes on them since I hit i-75, so it didn’t suprise me to come upon this minivan with a buncha bikes on top …
Until I got close enough to see the setup:
Now, its kind of hard to see, because well .. I was driving, and its only a 1.3 mp cameraphone .. and this dude was only doing like 50 mph or something, so I’d have had to make a major scene to get close enough for a good picture …
Anywhoo .. as I was saying, its kind of hard to see, but there are 4 bikes on this van, fastened upside-down to 2×4′s with like U-bolts or something .. It was some funny shit… But, lemme tell ya, those bikes weren’t going ANYWHERE …
and i swear, this setup has dave darling written all over it .. the only difference is that my dad would have used alot more parts … and it would certainly have involved bungie cords ..
