Raleigh is a brand of bike tire.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #4516 on:** August 02, 2016, 02:33:43 PM »

Also a make of bicycles.

I had a Raleigh push bike.

The only travel do for work is to the Agency HQ for training. Which is across the parking lot. Or to the County Government Center. Which is across the street.

From my office that is.

I loved that bike. I could ride it without using the handlebars. It's so satisfying to do that. Go around corners just by leaning.

As you know, I'm overweight. On our trip to the Outer Banks in NC 3 yewrs ago we rented bikes on the island. I was a kid again. Jumping over hills. Spin out stops. Then the tires leaked twice with the fix it flat products.

That green stuff was coming out. I was then dubbed by a 10 year old kid, "Flat Tire Joe".

Yeah when my motorcycle tyre blew out - the puncture repair goo went EVERYWHERE.

I've never gotten to travel anywhere fun for work, just a week in Columbus Ohio. I was supposed to go to Dublin for a week at one point, but that trip fell through at the last minute.

My company's data centers are in:

New Jersey (our New York City DC)
Los Angeles
Denver
Amsterdam
Frankfurt
Singapore

I love how our DCs are in major cities and some where the green is legal

There was talk about opening one in Las Vegas but management said that would not end well for the DC team. Tokyo is the next datacenter for us as rumored. I still have not gone to Singapore, but been to all the rest many times.

So I had like a 35-40 minute face to face with my supervisor today. My second official probationary performance review...

Bus crash in Cali yesterday.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #4526 on:** August 03, 2016, 06:17:27 AM »

Holy fuck. I don't see any bodies. Was there no one on it or is that photo from way after?

Darkstarshades · « **Reply #4527 on:** August 03, 2016, 06:20:07 AM »

Driver drunk?

Chino · « **Reply #4528 on:** August 03, 2016, 07:04:55 AM »

5 people died. From what I read, the bus was trying to merge on the highway, and a truck held alongside it refusing to let it merge. It ended up hitting the pole.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4529 on:** August 03, 2016, 07:17:37 AM »

Morning.

I heard lost limbs as well. Damn scary.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4530 on:** August 03, 2016, 07:56:29 AM »

Blob, I've got a little Too Hot To Sleep cranking in my office right now.

Hyperplex · « **Reply #4531 on:** August 03, 2016, 08:01:09 AM »

For whatever reason, I've been really productive at work since yesterday afternoon. I think within the hour we will commence more company meetings. This afternoon we are all adjourning to a nearby country club for lunch and "fun team-building" and then after work we have a staff and family catered pool party.

A pole going almost completely through the bus and only 5 deaths is kind of a miracle, well unless there were only 5 people on the bus.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #4538 on:** August 03, 2016, 01:37:03 PM »

Hey REAP !!!!

I just got a brand new rear tyre. It's a Michelin. My previous tyre was kind of a square-er profile and this one is more rounded.

Do you know if it should feel much different ?

Granted I haven't ridden for 3 weeks and it was a bit windy today.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #4539 on:** August 03, 2016, 05:41:22 PM »

I found the book Rick Ruin read to become a music producer.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #4540 on:** August 03, 2016, 06:58:04 PM »

And they are black. Perfection.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4541 on:** August 04, 2016, 04:51:26 AM »

My video is almost done. I'm just fixing up some of the blood spurts, then I think the visuals are done. Then sound, if the sound effects site is actually working today.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #4542 on:** August 04, 2016, 05:04:34 AM »

I also demand results!

I think I might add a lens flare to the final shot, aside from that, I'm moderately happy with it. Only a few more days before it will be done, hopefully.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #4545 on:** August 04, 2016, 05:20:36 AM »

wanted to see it today.

The family have gathered and i've made 5 pots of coffee already.

Now you tell me it's a few more days.

Sorry everyone. Come back next week.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4546 on:** August 04, 2016, 05:21:25 AM »

Sorry to ruin your plans for the day.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #4547 on:** August 04, 2016, 05:22:16 AM »

Wondering what to do on my day off.

I could ride my bike but the indicators aren't working now. Hoping it's just a fuse though.

I won't ride anywhere in the dark obviously.
