Every now and then I need a good chuckle and I turn to the Internet to visit sites that are amusing to me. I enjoy reading humorous articles, looking at funnypictures, and watching entertaining videos. I know NT has the Internet locked down, so I figured I would ask the experts and see what...

How many of you on NT are participating in Ride Your Bike to Work Week? I rode to work this morning and it was great. Of course, any day on the bike is a greatday. There may be events going on in your community for bike riders this month. The League of American Bicyclists web page has some...

It was a great day in the Diesel household today as I received my Master's degree. The commencement ceremony was really satisfying - even more so than whenI received my Bachelor's degree. Congratulations to all of the other college graduates on the board! You should be very proud of your...

Well, the inevitable finally happened today and I crashed due to not being able to get my dang shoe unclipped from the pedal. I was out riding on the streets and was trying to cross a busy four-lane road. I was getting my track stand on and waiting for a slow moving car to go by so I could...

I'm just curious to see if any of you are following famous people on Twitter. For the record, I currently follow Lance Armstrong and Dave Matthews. I also sometimes check out pages they follow just to see what interests they have. Who do you follow?

I recently read this article in which whole bean coffees were rated. Theysuggested that Eight O' Clock 100% Colombian is a really good bean. Though I had never been told their coffee is good, I bought a bag. I don't care forit. Typically, I go to Starbucks and make a custom pound of 1/2...

I'm finally going to have my shoulder operated on tomorrow. The doctor is not entirely sure what all is wrong in there as MRIs are not always perfectlyclear and conclusive. He says he'll figure it out when he gets inside and will give me the recovery time outlook post-op. I am looking at...

It seems I can't watch a sports show or pick up a sports magazine without being bombarded with these two. Which do you think is the bigger darling?

I did a search and found the thread about the trojan and mal-ware issues and the programs that can be used to fix the problems.However, there was no indication in the thread as to whether or not the issues have been corrected. My lovely wife (don't ask for pics - I know how youguys are) bought...

I was heading out the door today at 5 p.m. to go to class. On the way to the garage I glanced out into my front yard. Standing there was a little black andwhite short haired dog wearing a red and white coat (I'm serious). Not wanting the dog to conduct dog business in my yard, I went out the...

My mom ordered me a pair of the AJ XXIII Chicago CW off of Flight Club as a gift for x-mas. She called me today and said, "We might have a problem withyour shoes." She went on to tell me the following: This morning (Thursday), she tracked the package using the FedEx code that she received in a...

My mom and I have talked on the phone about 10 times in the last week to fine tune the Thanksgiving feast. She and my wife have exchanged an unknown number ofe-mails, but I would guess they have been in contact at least as many times as FDR spoke to Churchill in the days leading up to Normandy...

I had what I call a Breakthrough Day at the gym today: One of those days when your lifts seem easy and you just know you are getting stronger. All my reps weretight and in good form and muscle fatigue was low. I chart everything and have not been at my current weights very long, so it's not as...

EDIT: After discovering last night that a similar post existed about 12 pages back, I tried to get rid of this one. As usual, Yuku was not working right andevery time I hit "edit" it went to a blank screen. MODS PLEASE LOCK

It has been established that I have a bit of the ol' OCD about some things. That said, allow me to continue. I find that I put a good deal of consideration into which Js I wear when I head out to pick up new additions to the collection on RD. Below are some guidelinesI use to determine what I...

I hope this is in the right area... I need to purchase a lock for my bike and I would like to know if any of you have personal knowledge on the subject. I want to start riding my mtn bike tovarious places and want for it to be there when I get back. Please leave any info about good locks and...

I am heading to Toyota Park to see the Dave Matthews Band this Friday (June 7). We will be there all day before the show at 7. Is there anything to do in thatarea (malls, restaurants, bars, other points of interest)? Would it be a hassle to get over to Chi and eat?

I thought NT might get a giggle out of these pics:
