This could be the reason the bike failed to start.

 

 This is the ground cable from my battery. It's all kinds of bad, and was hanging from a sliver of wire on the frame. Yeah, that'll mess things up.

This would look good on my chopper

My friend Nick takes these awesome photos. He has shows in places around Santa Cruz, where he gets in the water. He takes pictures of other stuff, too, like mountains and waterfalls. He is a great photographer. Obviously.

Been busy

Captain Beefheart & Magic Band - Sure 'nuff 'n Yes I do

I just ordered this

The Nightwatch. Horror stories narrated by Peter Lee. 1975. I have been trying to find this since 1985. The copy I used to have was damaged by the heater in a Volkswagen Beetle. The first thing I'm doing when it arrives is making it digital. Psyched.

WANTED!

I have the wheel, I want the caliper, mount and rotor. And I don't want to pay $200 for them. Picky picky picky.

Framed!!

I framed a comics page from 1925 for my dad. He held on to this for so long, even getting it laminated sometime in the '60s. There are comics on both sides, so I framed it to be reversed. It will sit on a wall mounted shelf for viewing.
