This arcade has only one game. I blew through eight quarters and couldn't even pass the first level. I don't know who @electronictheatrecontrols is, but they have the high score.
In the year of our Lord, 2026, on February 8, the temperature was 60+ degrees. I saw it coming days before and had to make sure I made the best of it. I set off late morning on the KLR 650 and over 10 hours and nearly 400 miles later, I came back tired, muddy, and as extremely happy as I thought I would be. The San Rafael Swell is breathtaking, and its desert secrets would not let me leave. I rode for miles not knowing the road was a dead end. It's not metaphorical, just a reminder to update my GPS tracking and adjust my headlights. And bring warmer gloves. Once the sun goes down it's still February. #advrider #klr650
Tomorrow's show is right here in our nation's capital. I am always overwhelmed at the beauty, mystery, and complicated history of this city. I love being here and I am inspired by everything the buildings, museums, and memorials represent. Millions of hours of work and sacrifice go into making this country a place where people are helped and protected. My enormous hotel window overlooks Arlington National Cemetery and the Pentagon, symbols of defending freedom here and around the world. I walked through the cold, windy national mall and stopped at war memorials and shrines to Lincoln and King. I reverently walked to the gates of the White House, where the clown show we Americans elected sometimes resides. And I'm done with it. I'm done with him. I'm done with the spineless elected representatives who support him by bowing down to his wishes or who do nothing to uphold the law. None of them deserves to be in the same cityscape as the memorials and graves of those who actually did something to make this country better. None of them has our interests in mind. Only their own. Please don't give them power. This is our city and I want it back.

CNN: Okay, it's working. And I know you have like a hundred gigs, so we are good.
Me (forgetting "gigs" means other things): LOL! Yeah, we are definitely busy.
Free concert! I want to make you all aware of a rare live Buddy System concert happening tomorrow at the Orem City Library. Cherie and Lyndy's award-winning songs backed by an AMAZING band will make for a perfect popsicle, watermelon kind of evening. I hope to see you all there.
I took the very long way to Sundance to do some maintenance on the Wizard of Oz sound system. I rode up Hobble Creek Canyon left fork and after a series of random turns appeared at Daniels Summit. On an otherwise benign bump, both my phone holder and my right front turn signal snapped off my bike. Another time as I stopped for a Teams meeting I heard my tool kit strap snap. I didn't find the pieces wrapped around my axle until the day after (today). At Taco Bell in Heber the employee told me I look like "an older Ryan Reynolds". I rode up to Cascade Springs where I stood on the pegs on a forest road and promptly wiped out, smashing my knee and my side mirror and shearing off my right foot peg. I alternated using the crash guard and the passenger foot peg to hobble my way up the Alpine Loop to Sundance. I cancelled the long way home fearing complete motorcycle (or rider) destruction, opting rather for the back streets of Provo and Springville. As I sat down to dinner I got the call that something else wasn't working at Sundance, so I rode right back up on another bike. 10/10. Would do again. #advrider #gigdujour
