they can't make them too good or else they'll end up blowing themselves off.

Wierd. That is around the corner from my parent's place and very near to where I used to live.

Spot is here.

This is really about drivers not really having any exposure to cyclists there. Going on rides downtown in the 90s was wild. If you were seen, other drivers reacted in either overly cautious or dangerous ways - there was no in between.

Haha. Having to consider anything outside the metal box? Lord forbid

Vomits on the Prime Minister of Japan, no less.

Yep. Mad eh?

Reminds me of a very formal retirement dinner I was at (no, I wasn't the chunderer for once)

Was you the prime minister of Japan?!

The shop around the corner is currently a medical center called Care Now (urgent care).

I discussed the following over beers with chums last night and thought I'd share. Epic win/fail/wtf.
In late 2004, together with colleagues/chums, I was tasked with a counter terrorist search at Rhodes House, Oxford. President Jacques Chirac was attending to give a speech. We searched the venue with a couple of bomb dogs and then left it to Oxford officers and venue staff to keep it secure. We had handheld detector wands, like miniature squash rackets, and two metal detector archways which we constructed in a small marquee at the gateway into the entrance. All the invited guests had to pass through exactly as you do at airport. At some stage I happened to mention I had read about Christina Aguilera repeatedly failing at a detector arch at LAX or wherever. Apparently it was her genital piercings that were causing the issue. Anyway a little later M. Chirac had arrived and been taken inside so his plain clothed close protection officers had to come through our tent. The senior officer was quite a strikingly beautiful and elegant woman and was first through the arch. She set the archway alarm off and my colleague Jon lunged forward with thrusting handheld detector proclaiming "Ooh we'd better check for genital piercings!" Thankfully I think there was just enough of a language barrier for our French colleagues to not know what was going on.

No it was definitely Jon.

Briefly.

There was some confusion with paperwork and after a brief period in office I stepped down to pursue other activities more closely aligned with my skillset.

This is horrific.
