First of all, let me say that I hope that our man Karl achieves the thing he sets out to achieve, or otherwise I will probably have to delete this post. Maybe not, since even attempting this feat is pretty BAMF. Karl Meltzer, provided to moi by reader TriChris, is attempting to set the Appalachian … Continue reading Real Men of BAMFness: Karl Meltzer
The Green Zebra
Summer is a wonderful time of year for a whole variety of reasons, but one of my favorite reasons is definitely the edible things that grow outside, where they ought to. Being able to buy locale produce is a highlight, but even if you stray outside the 100 mile locale, everything just seems to taste … Continue reading The Green Zebra
Free Powah
A touch of the Turbo button at the bar end – and the burning sensation in your thighs disappears – the healthy perspiration, however, remains. (aka Push ze button. Zoom-zoom.) This is SO German, it is astounding. Basically, it is a little electric motor that goes inside your seat-tube that can deliver 200 watts of … Continue reading Free Powah

Real Men of BAMFness: Colin Jenkins
I think this is the a first, where a Real Man of BAMFness is someone I know. My former roommate Colin Jenkins just did a great interview with Flotrack following his outstanding performance at the Olympics. Now, you may be wondering how it is that finishing last - DFL - at the Olympics could be … Continue reading Real Men of BAMFness: Colin Jenkins
The Consitution
Just read an article on the Washington Post about Obama's response to Sarah Palin's statement that, "Al-Qaeda terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America and he's worried that someone won't read them their rights." The article itself was not much more than a collection of Obama's quotes, but Peter Slevin did a nice … Continue reading The Consitution
The Veeps
So I read this article that said in a recent poll, Sarah Palin won out over Joe Biden in a mock election. That is officially one of the stupidest polls ever. The point of a veep is not to pick someone who would also be a good president; it is about picking someone who fills … Continue reading The Veeps
Real Men of BAMFness: Rich Habib & The Titan Salvage Crew
This is the Cougar Ace. It is a car transport vessel. In the picture above, it is listing at approximately 60deg in Bearing Straits just off the coast of Alaska. When the ship ended up like this, which happened in a matter of moments, the phone rang in the bedroom of a man named Rich … Continue reading Real Men of BAMFness: Rich Habib & The Titan Salvage Crew
The Grand Finale
So the journey of the roasted chicken is now complete. Though, I think of it more along the lines of victory in a single battle, with the war very much undecided. It all started with the idea of roasting a chicken. Really, as loathe as I am to admit it, I was really shudder baking … Continue reading The Grand Finale
