Ha, I noticed that, too. Someone should fix it!

Right. We had metal detectors and a police station in the school, in the 80s.
#1 D1 football team in the country one year while I was there, which didn’t make my life better, lol. But we ran track in Marciano Stadium, classmates were Rocky royalty.
Exactly the same in Brockton. Population of 100K with one high school built in 1970. Honestly it was great, like a small college campus with a lot of resources at the time. Gyms, pool, fine arts building, etc.
Holy shit. It’s like they forget there are cameras everywhere.
Brockton High typically had 5000 students when I was there in the 80s. Graduating classes over 1000. They’re hurting these days but still over 3000. Was allegedly the largest HS east of the Mississippi at one point.
Today's Hell World has me thinking about Douglas Hofstadter's "I Am A Strange Loop." If my soul consists of my interactions, has AI already, without me knowing, ruined my soul?
I predict we’ll be using space savers in Boston right up until the week street sweeping starts.
I have Cycliq cameras front and rear now, so both.
The race loop is exactly my training loop. Some days I go up the access road. But since Flynn was born, I rarely go anywhere. Just laps on the hamster wheel.
If you follow my Strava, you know it’s boring as fuck and I just do laps around Blue Hills every day.
Meanwhile, Blue Hills today:

But did any of them go down the Cop Slide?
12K for me, and a major source of organic marketing for my business. I could be myself there and talk to friends and it would turn into work. I kept my account to protect my name there, but unfollowed everyone and stopped using it. Haven’t recreated that here.
In moments like these, I sing to myself and replace “parthenogenesis” with “bombogenesis.” CC: @weatherishappening.com

Had to go to the bad place for an update.
The crash in the Classic Var today was sickening and it feels like the commentators missed it. The TE rider hits his head on the leading piece of fence as he crashes. Can’t find any news about it yet.

whole squad of teens on bikes came up TREMONT toward BROMFIELD and lit a BPD cruiser up with snowballs. Officer ain’t even get a word out before they scattered.

I just saw my little sister’s IG stories and of course she was there. (My little sister is 49.)
Why is Maldegem today? What secret Belgian holiday is it that there's a race on a random Wednesday?

At Smith, even. Fall of 1992. Looks like it's ENG 260 there now.
Taking classes at Smith (and honors classes at UMass) meant I could get an extra credit, take one less class, and not have to commute from Northampton to Amherst so I could ride more. Lol.

Canada is invading and we deserve it.
I just fixed my Virtuoso but fortunately it was simple. The tabs had broken off the burr ring and it was a $5/5 minute replacement once I figured it out.
Visma should use the Simon Yates money to hire Joris Niewenhuis. Let him race 'cross for Visma and road to prepare and when it fits everyone's needs, similar to the Alpecin 'cross-focused riders.
