Is it because of that one that that I peed my pants when I was 7, running back to my house after going to a friends house to borrow a board name whose name I can&#39;t recall?Klaushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06587934998738921091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6737481038912124859.post-19751695309621473722011-11-27T07:26:14.258-05:002011-11-27T07:26:14.258-05:00Powerful.<br />Thanks.Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6737481038912124859.post-41861742403552351322011-11-25T09:34:36.195-05:002011-11-25T09:34:36.195-05:00Thanks for sharing this. Very humbling indeed...<br /><br />On my ride to work, which takes me through SoHo in NYC, this morning, there was tons of shoppers - already with plenty of shopping bags at 8:30 in the morning!! And most of them seemed to be in their teens or early 20s. Very weird...mikewebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17534302647612107660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6737481038912124859.post-37532730333616685082011-11-24T21:07:29.383-05:002011-11-24T21:07:29.383-05:00There are moments in life when people with the best of intentions need a big slice of humble pie to remember how to pay attention.<br />Hats off to your father.<br />Outstanding.<br /><br />Thankstaking is a weird day. <br />I don&#39;t think I&#39;ve ever liked it. <br /><br />Keep up the good work puddles!jimjimjimjimjimjimjimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6737481038912124859.post-2566708666144232882011-11-24T18:53:16.863-05:002011-11-24T18:53:16.863-05:00Dave,<br />Thank you so much for the kind words. It means a whole lot to read such a thing.<br /><br />As for tomorrow being buy nothing day, I think the hundred or so people I saw camping outside Best Buy didn&#39;t get the memo. I&#39;ll be riding by them tomorrow morning though, I&#39;ll let them know for sure!Klaushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06587934998738921091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6737481038912124859.post-67123402795740783492011-11-24T15:03:40.411-05:002011-11-24T15:03:40.411-05:00Klaus; <br />something that i am thankful for today is that there are people like you- unabashedly telling it like it is (or was). thank you.<br />i hope that you and you family have a great day together, and maybe tomorrow you get to go for a nice ride as well. <br />remember, it&#39;s not &quot;black friday&quot; as the mainstream media would have us believe (really just an excuse for over-the-top consumerism as a dessert after the day of gluttony), but in fact, it is actually &quot;buy nothing day&quot;.<br />best, davebike masterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02079020529619906282noreply@blogger.com
