Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

And Dick's will lead the way

Wait, that title doesn't sound quite right, does it?  There's the implication of... or that...  I mean, well, some people can be real dicks, but at the same time you can's say all dicks are bad... if you know what I'm inferring here...  I mean there's dicks and the there's Dick's - the Sporting Good's store.  Over the years I've bought quite a few things from Dick's, including my Sole 95 Elliptical, the one with hundreds and hundreds of miles on it.  And why Dick's?  Just a bit ago they announced that they are ending the sale of assault style rifles.  They are citing the murders in Florida as one of the reasons.  They have a conscience.  Articles are popping up all over the media now... probably not at Faux News though, and when they say something they'll put a negative spin on it.  Interestingly enough, if you read the article you'll that they are acting because Congress doesn't have the balls... well, they don't exactly use the word 'balls,' but the implication is fairly clear.
Show your appreciation by going and buying something from Dick's.  They've taken a big step in the right direction.
Oh, and I am off again today.  And the weather is going going to be simply wonderful... again.  I was going to go see my Mom but I may put that off until next week when the weather is shitty:  cloudy, cool, and rainy - spring is approaching fast.
Yesterday I took the dogs to the park.  They loved it.

180 pounds of dogs
And I also got in over 11 miles on the bike.  I had also wanted to start striping some of the wallpaper boarder from the dining room... that didn't happen.  I'm off 4 days next week - so I'll put stripping on my schedule for one of those days.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go online and check out Dick's.

  2. People would be shocked to hear I shop at a place called Dick's. Of course Dick's has always lead me way.
