I crunched some numbers and discovered that I made only [...]

After seven years, a new bike

By Justin | August 12, 2008

It’s the end of an era. After seven years of riding my trusty and much-loved—yet increasingly decrepit—’01 Haro Revo, I now have a nifty ‘08 Haro F1 in Gloss Black (not the gaudy red pictured here).

It’s nice to have tires with tread, and brakes that actually slow me down, and a sprocket that doesn’t jam [...]

Running routes for the coming school year

By Justin | August 11, 2008

By Justin | August 10, 2008

Let’s take a look at your love life. Whoever originated the phrase, The way to a man’s heart is through the stomach, must have been referring to the Cancer girl. You really know how to dine a man, and seduce him, with all sorts of tempting and exotic dishes, don’t you? This is fine, but [...]

Jason Collett’s “I’ll Bring the Sun”

By Justin | August 3, 2008

You took hold of my affections with your Bible and your sword
Your celebrity connections, I was not used to keeping score
From your fine-gilded chalice I drank all your cheap red wine
It was a good place to be Judas, hiding pearls from the swine
I’ll bring the sun, I’ll bring the sun
