The Beginning


Greetings, True Believers!
This is Tegan Pants, reporting from the crib down the street.

My mother has decided to forgo "traditional" education for, let's say, "unorthodox" schooling. My eyes are barely focused and I can't read, but Mommy is dead set on, in her words, "starting my training as soon as possible." Daddy tried to convince her that I would prefer some age appropriate material like Dr. Suess and the Very Hungry Caterpillar. Mommy told Daddy he didn't know what he was talking about then I crapped my pants and diffused the potential fight. I've been learning more and more how to use my bodily functions to my advantage.


So join me, won't you, on this journey into the world of comic books through the eyes of an already world weary infant.

How long till kindergarten?

Schwinn Approved

   
My family has it's share of vices. I personally can't stop myself from drinking sugar-free Red Bulls. In wifebeaters. While yelling at small children from my lawn.
   Curtis has a small problem with bikes. He rides them, collects them and loves just about everything about them. We've even converted our garage into a foster home for wayward bikes.
    This past 4th of July, Curtis' mom, sister and brother journeyed out to their homeland of Wisconsin and brought him back a little present. Uncle Jim had been holding on to this puppy since the 60's. All the brothers, Jim, Bob and Curtis' dad, Bill, had matching ones when they were kids and only Jim still had his. It's still in great shape and once Curtis put it all back together, it was totally rideable.


This sumbitch is extremely heavy! Frames are so freaking light nowadays, it's a wonder people could get anywhere in a timely manner back in the day. Curtis rode it to work and it added another twenty minutes onto his commute. And he apparently didn't have enough fat on his rump to deal with the brick of a seat. But it is such a beautiful bike! Great addition to our little bicycle family.

Success!



I finally have something edible from my garden! The jalapenos and peppers got massacred by the grasshoppers, but the tomatoes held out. Uncle Bob and Curtis' dad came over last night and we sliced them up for hamburgers. And they were effin' delicious!
