I LOVE Google. If I did...Maybe I need to explain. I LOVE Google. If I didn't, I wouldn't be using blogger and the pile of other tools they gave me when I purchased the domain from them. I was just commenting on the fact that their services are tailored to the quick fix mentality that our culture has. <BR/>Granted I may not love them as much as Sugoi and Ibex, but then Google hasn't kept me warm at -40°F. I suspect that they may be working on that next, however. WinterCyclist Warmer.Beta.

One of my favorite authors, Anthony Bourdain once said "Context and memory play powerful roles in all the truly great meals in one's life. I guess the same can be said for any endeavor one takes just for the love of doing it. If you don't care, you probably get most of your news from headlines, you probably think all beer tastes the same, and a ride is just travelling from one place to another. It's the journey that provides the context. Me, I read the story, savor the differences in taste, and live for the journey. And I suspect the Banger does as well. However, don't be too hard on Google, it led me here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
