Psycle

The new bike is a speed demon. I'm not normally the type to ride the brakes down a hill, but this thing is nuts. Out of the gate the thing is so light that it picks up to speed in no time... so sweet. I can't really take much credit because it feels so easy to get speed with all those gears. The serious riders are definitely riding way faster. It will take a lot of time for me to get to their speeds and endurance levels.

I listened to most of the Hurley album by Weezer today. I wasn't very impressed... when did they become super cheesy? They were always pop music, but there was some bite to them before. Now it's all bubblegum heart-cries, half-assed whining and lame chord progressions. The Blue album and Pinkerton were awesome, the Green album had a few good tunes, but after Maladroit I gave up. It looks like I did so just in time, because since then they've released five albums and four ep's, none of which made any splash on my music radar besides the song Hash Pipe (which I'm not a big fan of). 

Dear Weezer, I write you in spite of years of silence. You've cleaned up, found Jesus. Things are good oh so I hear. This CD, Blue Album awakens ancient feelings. Like others, those others, new sound is drowning in the flood.
