The Bicycle Diaries: March 2015
http://bikediaries.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Getting A Grip on the Handlebars of Life. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. The above sign is found in Hampton, Illinois, and is addressing what we can only hope is a Hampton, Illinois-only problem. Someone is pooping on the bike path. No, not a dog. Yes, pooping. According to the CBC. Yes, someone is grabbing up some toilet paper, heading down the bike path to a place near a public restroom. And dumping on the bike path. Clearly not someone adhering to consensus reality. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Bicycle Diaries: The Ultimate One-Off
http://bikediaries.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-ultimate-one-off.html
Getting A Grip on the Handlebars of Life. Friday, August 16, 2013. About his experience in taking 9 months to build a bike. I mean seriously build: he started with the designing the bike he wanted and then building it from tubes. It's a really interesting journey. Just as biking will occasionally put you in a space you weren't expecting, so does building.There is something primal about the maker urge. Mike's posts are a short and interesting read.

The Bicycle Diaries: Excellent (And Pricey) Bike LItes!
http://bikediaries.blogspot.com/2013/08/excellent-and-pricey-bike-lites.html
Getting A Grip on the Handlebars of Life. Friday, August 16, 2013. Excellent (And Pricey) Bike LItes! But it’s, uh, pricey, at $660 for one unit (i.e., if you want both your wheels tricked out like this, you’re out more than $1,300). Still, you could have bike wheels. With an animation of you riding a bike on them. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Excellent (And Pricey) Bike LItes! Trudeau biography released from Five Rivers. Post-Op Observations: From surgery February 25, 2016. Fat, Old, and Boring.

Farm Gate: October 2014
http://doublejoyfarm.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Discussion of farm policy, food security and food. With recipes. Thursday, October 16, 2014. The End of Inequality. Here in North America, we have a problem: although the majority of us will pay lip service to the concept of inequality, we live in a culture that is based on and celebrates inequality. And the biggest problem we face, global warming, really doesn't respect power, wealth, or privilege. We have returned to an age when wealth is reserved for inheritors, not creators.

Discussion of farm policy, food security and food. With recipes. Wednesday, October 21, 2015. Photo by E. B. Klassen CC BY-SA. I've had a bit of luck recently and come into possession of about 4 kilos (10 pounds) of quince. This has meant that I can do a bit of experimenting with new recipes above making some quince jelly. Quince likes to be cooked- in fact, without it, quince is almost inedible. It's like medlars in that way. Medlars. Need to be bletted. We had guests in this weekend, and to amuse their...

Minimal carbon footprint and a fulfilled life. Sunday, March 28, 2010. Where I'm Headed Today. I hate the name, but I get the reason for it.
