More sights on the ride
I rode by the place I talked about in this post, and found that the wheelchair had been moved and that the Terminator 2 object in the back wasn’t a poster at all, but one of several abandoned video game machines. Pictures below.
And I’m going to experiment with allowing anonymous commenting. Is anyone actually reading this?

North Atlanta Goodness
I went up to Eric’s last night to pick a little, we wind up going to Eckerd’s to get some cold Medicine for his wife, and of course, I see this
It’s for dry, cracked hands evidently.

Unexpected to see
I came across this odd site yesterday while biking on my usual route. I don’t remember seeing any of this before, either the dumpster or the garbage, thought I think there is usually more underbrush in this area. Behind the wheelchair was a poster for Terminator 2, which came out in the early 90s.

Toy bought, Toy bought, Toy bought
The Olympus DC 8080 is on it’s way.

A day behind on the blogging
I’m almost caught up on the blogging, now. I went twice around Stone Mountain yesterday with Mike and Erin (happy birthday Erin!) and afterwards we had German good with Mary and Ed.
Then I fell asleep incredibly early for me (around midnight). When I woke up at 5:50 this morning I thought I’d slept through to the next night.

Catch Up Day
As work has finally relented a tad, here are the links I’ve been meaning to post
- The Moving GMAP, a combination of Google Maps and GPS data, I need to get me one of them.
- The best curved corners code I’ve seen yet.
- James Lileks is a very good writer.
And here is a very grainy photo of the usual Jakes’ bluegrass crew. From left to right is Jim (playing Beths’s guitar, he usually plays dobro), Beth, and Walter on mandolin.

Had dinner with Mike and Erin
At what they called Uncle Julio’s, but to me it will always be Casa Grande. It’s a lovely little Mexican place on Peachtree that I ate at many times when I worked at Bridge. It would seem the I need to elaborate on why the defensive style of Pernell Whittaker is important.
It was a lovely dinner, someone has torn down the old apartment building next door to the restaurant and left only this gateway.
I wish I had a better camera so I could go back later and take some good shots of it, but I guess that will have to wait until later in the year.

I learn new things about the cell phone
Namely I learn it has a night setting.

The view from the bike ride
I took the camera phone with me on my ride today and came across this fallen tree. It’s had to tell from the photo, but this tree seems to have fallen for no apparent reason.
For about 2 months now a baby carriage has been in the middle of an empty field that is next to the bike path. The carriage seems to be in fine working order, and it has been sitting on it’s side on private property for some time now. Of course, the one time I bring the camera it’s gone.

Just got back from Blind Willies
Where I saw the lovely and talented combination of Bill Sheffield, Beth Casner, and Roger WhateverHisLastNameIs (featuring Ralph Lutrelle on Dobro) for a lovely evening of country blues. For some reason this cell photo turned out very grainy.
