  1. Man, sometimes you have to deal with some real turkeys during the
    morning commute! I grabbed some pictures to record their disruptive
    behavior. How can they get away with blocking the road like this?

    Work and recreation are not often effected at the same time.
    One using a bicycle in business makes an exception to the rule.

    I was pretty much floored pulling in to work one morning this week.
    There was a honking big bird sitting on the trunk of a car parked in a
    handicapped slot (i.e., right in the main flow of traffic into/out of
    the building). As I rode slowly past it, that turkey (hen) just stood
    there and watched me go by less than five feet away.

    I didn't have a camera, and was too stunned to take it out if I'd had
    it, so no pictures.

    I'm afraid I'd be thinking more about a very large
    clubhouse sandwich than taking pix.

    I realize those Texas/NM wild turkeys have a rep
    for possessing a certain innate beligerance. I'm
    nevertheless willing to do battle for a very large
    clubhouse sandwich. Especially right now, at this
    very moment. Maybe sub the side pork/bacon w/ prosciutto,
    go nutz with the mayo, and just slightly lightly toast the
    bread so it's a little golden but still soft. Slide
    some chipotl slices in there. mmmm ... tryptophan
    and papain and fat and cholesterol. Dee-lishus!

    cheers,
    Tom
