A few months back, NASA announced preliminary dates for the remaining space shuttle missions for the outdated shuttle fleet, already overdue to be mothballed. For as long as I can remember, I've had an interest and fascination with America's space program and I've seen many a launch on television, but have yet to ever have the opportunity [...] So it sounds like John McCain (and George W. Bush before him) used one of the most popular Hagar-era Van Halen songs – "Right Now" during public events. Like a lot of bands, it sounds like Van Halen has no desire to be affiliated with any political candidate, and can you blame them? Most of these songs aren't [...]
Starting out in a humid and a bit foggy conditions, we rode out to Timberlake, NC and back – just over 72 miles door to door, which I realized is actually the longest I've ridden by about 10 miles (plenty of 100Ks under my belt). So the three day weekend us upon us. Thank God. We've got no travel plans, but plenty going on. First thing tomorrow morning, I'm doing a 70 mile bike ride with the Raleigh Gyros, which will be a nice way the end the week (and month) after being hindered fit a week with limited outdoor riding due [...] File this one under funny and sad… cause it's so so true.

Just two days of steady rain have already perked up our lawn and plants. It's amazing how with just some decent moisture, plants and lawns green right back up. Now I know beggars can't be choosers, but I've got two requests of the weather in the coming weeks and months:
It looks like the closure is all centered around the Apex Street Bridge and a new connection to the trail. I look forward to the day I receive a message about the trail about constructing one of the three bridges at the other end of the paved trail.

Then this morning I was too tired and sluggish to get up early to ride in. Now looking at the forecast, Wednesday's looking like rain. So just like that, it could be a week or more without [...]
The more I read on Rock Band's sequel, the more excited I get about its coming release. Then I looked, and it's coming out in less than a month (September 14th, according to Amazon). Earlier today, they announced you could pay $5 or less to get an option to export music from the first Rock [...] |

It's been really wonderful that central North Carolina (along with a lot of other areas) has been getting rain pretty steadily for the last couple days, and it looks like we're going to get it possibly all the way through the weekend. It's great for the state in a year where we've been fighting drought conditions almost throughout. 
For those of you who ride, walk or run Durham, North Carolina's greenway – the American Tobacco Trail, expect some detours in the coming weeks for the area around the downtown end of the trail.
Amanda's in Florida and flying back up here in just a few hours. Well yesterday in her absence, I had a few people over to the house. Originally it was supposed to be just a couple of buds playing Rock Band for awhile, but ended up having 14 friends out to the house at the peak.
