Cosi has good sandwiches. Not particularly good coffee. It still warms you up though.
If you know me well, you know I hate the cold. Hate being cold, hate cold weather. Winter sports don’t appeal to me because of the winter part. I want to move somewhere that there are four seasons: turning warm, warm, getting hot, and hot.
So with that in mind, even I can’t believe that on a day when it’s 28 degrees, I’d rather throw on my jacket and ride a motorcycle 40 miles to work than to turn on the heat in my truck and drive the cage in to work.
I’d rather be a little cold than to lose the freedom of riding, the connection I have with the road, the music of the engine beneath me, and the reality of the wind in my face.
Sometimes I refer to it as an addiction, but I think it’s rally just insisting on the best.

Stocking Stuffers
Hey y’all.
You know, Christmas is soon. And my birthday is right on its heels. Seems like a great time for you to get me some Mister Splashy Pants swag! I’m partial to the t-shirt (M) and the mug. That mug would be great at the office to compliment my coffee addiction.
Who is this Mister Splashy Pants, you ask? Well, Greenpeace is holding an online poll to name a humpback whale. They’re a little upset about Japan allowing hunting of the humpbacks (for science, of course), and I don’t blame them. So this requires naming a whale. Greenpeace provided 29 boring hippie sounding names and “Mister Splashy Pants.” Then Mister Splashy Pants met Web 2.0.
Even if you don’t buy me swag, you still have a day or two to vote.

Open Letter to Colbie Caillat
Dear Colbie,
I love your voice. Your lyrics are sweet and your music makes me feel good. You are a talented artist. So why do you have to have somebody count you in every time you sing “Bubbly?” I’ll grant you that it’s a tricky meter – but next time you record something, maybe you should turn the mike off when making asides like that. Perhaps your dad could even cut that little bit of audio out before making the final mix. I still love “Bubbly” but I don’t know how many more times I can count you in to get it started.
Your biggest fan,
Brad
