he just happened to be riding a bike on a trial, with a camera, stopped for no reason, and looked up just as a bear was charging him down a hill?

He stopped to wait for his friend, but...yes. He just "happened" to be riding a bike. People do ride bikes sometimes.

What if you are suffering from a meniscus menagerie and those are actually graduation marks?

When did you go to Canada/Jasper? I mainly go to the mountains there for dirt biking. It's about 3 hours away from me. Beautiful countryside.


Pedal bikes are much to silent in the back country unless you are constantly talking or run a bear bell on your bike.

Today I opened a telephone closet which I'd never been in before.



Behind all that mess is the original cloth-and-wax jacketed telephone cable from when the building was constructed in 1930. It looks practically like the day it was new, and is gorgeously installed- every wire perfectly tied with lacing twine, in neat little rows.

I love good clean wiring in a freshly installed panel.

When it looks like damnit, i die a little on the inside.

Yeah, I'm gonna try to clean that mess up. The plan is to run a single 50 pair CAT5 trunk into the box from the new closet, demarcated at a Krone block, and re-do all of the cross-connects on new mushrooms.

What really amazes me is that we're actually running some reasonably high-speed data circuits across a couple of those pairs, and the voice lines we have on the rest of them are the best-sounding in the building. The broadcast voice lines (eg: the ones we interview the governor on during emergencies) run through that panel. Absolutely amazing, given that the wiring is 85 years old.

You're telling me that this 80 year old wiring works perfect yet ATT cant fix my damn internet line even though they rebuilt the entire street connections 2 years ago? Sigh.
