5 years agoAarrgghh... going into withdrawals while you guys go on hiatus. Very wonderful though that you have made the adjustment to The Plan for the auspicious birthday. Made me think about myself on a possible 100th birthday and who might show up.... people yet unborn perhaps.

5 years agoHi Scott! Looking good:)
5 years agoThere’s a street in Berlin named Nimrod, after a mythical hero mentioned in the Bible and Koran. In Watersmeet, Michigan, the high school team is named for Nimrod, the mighty hunter, son of Cush, and great-grandson of Noah. The interesting part of the story might be how “Nimrod” became pejorative.
5 years agoWhen I was a surveyor for the USFS, the person who stood and merely held a measuring rod to site upon was called the Nimrod. It was the first time I heard the word. Luckily, I was hardly ever called to be the Nimrod.... a mind numbing job.
5 years agoWhen my kids were ages 5 and 7, a group of friends with young children joined us to form a hiking group for the summer. We hiked every week, and the kids all enjoyed the time together. (So distracted and content were they, that they hardly noticed they were walking several miles!) The kids called the group Nimrods Hike The Highways-- But We Hike the Trails! A nimrod is an inept person.
5 years agoI never would have guessed that a bicycle had a transmission. But then again my last bike had training wheels ;)
5 years agoHi, Glad the cold and sniffles were easily conquered. Hope your mechanical issues are quickly resolved too. Aruna.
5 years agoWe are waiting for the new transmission as I type this. And eat a soft roll with peanut butter.
