Really?

What the hell goes through this guys head? He sits there and thinks of the Knock Detecting Lock. Yes he mentions "What if mt neighbors hear m knock?" OK I'll change it. Well guess what, they heard that one to.

Another thing. First he says it it responds to absolute timing, then he states it responds to the tempo of the knock. Then he goes on to say that the knock could be fast or slow. Make up tour dang mind man!

OK, it is pretty flippin' cool, but in no way does the application of this work for a secure locking system. But this guys makes all sorts of things.


Moving on. Now this is something I can wrap my head around. He may be smashed, but he aint no idget!



Yup, he got it open! Took a few taps on the side of a building, but the cork was out. And if you don't mind a little foot in you wine, you are good to go.

OK. Amy and I are off to Philly on Saturday. We are going to see Body World and The Brain. It is at The Franklin Institute. I have never been to it, but Amy has. She tells me it is pretty bad ass. I only really ever say it on Casino Royal.

So I am excited to see this one. We are also going to hit up Dock Street and fill up my Growler with a tasty treat! Because we all know, I like tasty treats.

Speaking of these kinds of tasty treats, word came to me 2 weeks ago that I have a 500 plaque sitting in the office at Coopers! So we are going to try and have an unavailing of this master piece in three weeks. I should find out tonight if it is going to work out. So stay tuned for that.

OK back to this weekend! I am also going to try and stop back in Nodding Head for a quick pint if we are in the area, though I am not sure where the area is. I got a little turned around last time. But I have an excellent guide to the city....Amy!

And while we are there, we are going to stop at Bicycle Revolutions. I want to check out some Chrome bags. My R.E. Load has been giving my shoulder a work out. I was also tossing around the idea of a Bagaboo.

Bagaboo has an amazing bag design! Much like PAC Designs X-Strap.... OK, it is exactly the same thing, but cheaper! Yes it is much cheaper, the kicker, it is made in Budapest, Hungary! Not only a different country, but a different continent all together. Also to add insult to injury for PAC, the Euro is worth more than the Dollar, and USD is worth more than CAD. So why do you ask is the PAC bag over $100 more. I do not know!

With shipping from Hungry to the US it is roughly $255. The exchange rate fluctuates all day long. I have seen the bag for $249-$257 in the course of one day. It is kind of interesting to refresh the page ever few hours to see the dollar get weaker, then stronger, then weaker.

OK, back to Bagaboo. They make some really great stuff, and I was eyeballing them a while ago when I was looking into getting my R.E. Load. As you know I wanted to keep in in PA, which is why I went with R.E. Load. Or I would have gotten a PAC, Seagull or Bagaboo.

But with the Bagaboo having the X-Strap, that makes life easier. See I mostly commute on The Meepers, so I am always wearing a leather jacket. It is much much easier to get an over the head mess bag on then a backpack (which I am going to look at Saturday at Bicycle Revolutions). With the X-Strap, I get the easy on off of a mess bag, but the support of a backpack. Not only is the Bagaboo "Workhorse" much cheaper, it has better pockets!

I am a pocket fanatic. I like to have all sorts of pockets to separate my stuff. Things need to be organized, and I like a key clip and zipper pocket. All though most company charge this as an add on, Bagaboo is still cheaper. And you will see a lot less people with a Bagaboo bag, then a Chrome or R.E. Load.

OK, so around the Scranton area you will not see much of either Chrome or R.E. Load. In fact I only know of two kids with Chrome bags, one a Kremlin, and the other I think a Backbone, and one kid with a R.E. Load bag. I am sure there are much more with The U being in town, but I only rode with a few kids who rocked them.

OK, this is getting long and I am sure I lost you a long time ago. So here is where it ends for the day.

That is all, carry on.
