  1. Just back from the Saturday library ride with my daughter and we got
    soaked. There was this weird water-like substance falling from the sky
    that had us stumped. I checked wikipedia and discovered it is called
    "rain" ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain ). Evidently it is something
    that used to happen regularly. We also witnessed other strange things
    such as "umbrellas" and "raincoats". A very interesting ride indeed.

    The CF server is on the fritz as well? Unrelated? Dunno. Bikesoiler
    has dealt with the rain/CF server crisis Adequately, by Disappearing
    off to the Shed to fix a Spoke.

    (sorry, that Monkey Dust vid has Permuted my Thinking)

    didnt really happen, the last 24hrs was a contrived ploy by the BOM to test their met station equipment across the State of Vic...didnt you see all the little balloons with those radio controlled release devices... they all did a self destruct after letting the cargo go, doubt if you will find any remains...

    ...by the way contents of said luft balloonry wasn't really rain contituent, it was actually a new low volatility vodka BOM sourced from up North, apparently its cheaper than real H20 in some parts of the world, (down town Mokba & StPtsBg)... um ah...ahic..maybe drank too much of it 🙂
