I spent some quality time in the rain with my new best friend.. I really wish the radio station advertised on the top of the Stahlman building was one cooler than WKDF. You know, like some imaginary radio station that’s actually still cool. Originally published at Chris Wage Photography. Please leave any comments there. |

How to cure a bad mood in three easy steps:
1.) Climb onto 125HP sportbike.
2.) Start engine.
3.) Rotate right handgrip counterclockwise until disposition improves.
Works every time. |

And so the fall/winter ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) adeptusastartes painting oath is over and done now, or will be in a couple hours when I (hopefully) won't be awake to post about it. I have all the completions and excuses I can remember added to the original post (linked within the link above) and if I've missed you, well...tell me. Thanks for playing along, all, and hopefully this is something you enjoy doing every now and again. I know it really helps me find motivation to sit down and stay focused on a proj...ooh! Shiny...where was I? Oh, right, focus. Anyway, it's nice to have the motivator and to see some excellent works from everyone posted as we go along. So, as we roll up 2009 and reflect on a great many oaths over the past year, merrily toasting/mocking those who have failed and wassailing ourselves silly, I just have to say...ooh! Shiny again!
Seriously, it's good working with ya'll. See you in 2010 when we commence the year-long "Paint it as you buy it" oath and any number of smaller silly things that come up. Cheers! |

In the spirit of "pics or it didn't happen," I present my Angels Sanguine captain who closes out my fall oath (on the day it closes, nonetheless! Remember kids: if you wait 'til the last minute, it only takes a minute to do!).

| Need input on dirt bike boots... |
[Dec. 18th, 2009|02:19 pm] |
Any women dirt bikers on here? A local store is having a big 40% off sale and I want to pick up a good pair of boots. I will mostly use these for dual sport riding on my XT225. I'd love any input on what are good brands and features to look for. Any tips for n00bs are welcome too.
Thanks in advance!

| XTRM Sports Network |
[Dec. 18th, 2009|01:37 pm] |
I am getting a lot of spam from a site called XTRM Sports Network. They appear to be some sort of forum / advertising / shopping thing. Their hook is that they are offering contingency money and sponsorships to motorcycle racers. The messages are addressed to username elizilla and the same email I use on all forums, which implies that I subscribed to this, though I can't remember doing so. I'm wondering if I was trying to sign up for a track day or something, and had to go through this site? Maybe I got phished in some minor way. Or maybe they just bought a set of accounts from some other moto forum?
Anyway, I'm not a racer, just an occasional casual track-day rider, so I'm not going to pull in any contingency prizes. And I am sick of the daily spams. But I cannot find any way to delete my account or shut off this email, and queries to their support go unanswered. Does anyone know of this outfit, and have any idea how to escape their mailing list?
If you don't know of them, be warned, they will spam you like crazy if they get your info, so don't give them your real email address! I did not include a link, because I don't want anyone here to treat it as a recommendation and fall into their clutches. |

[Dec. 18th, 2009|04:05 pm] |
arrived in Goa a month ago after a long drive down from Manali Ladahk and Rajasthan.
Hitting the sunny, sandy, palm lined beaches of Goa was such a relief after a pretty exhausting ride.
i was really glad to be off the bike with no where to go and finally relax. Royal Enfield had sponsored a bike show at a beach village down the road so i went over to explore. rode the new 500 with fuel injection. nice power delivery and good brakes, strange riding position though.

I worked on a game with Ken Eklund last year called Ruby's Bequest. It was a strange game to work on, as I was dealing with my Dad having serious health and care issues, and how unprepared I was in virtually every way to contribute meaningfully to the last several months of his life.
There's a nice post-mortem up at IFTF of the project up here: http://www.iftf.org/RubysBequest
Later on in the document, there's a nice pull-quote from the character I wrote for the ARG, a kid named dr00. If you check the acknowledgements at the beginning, you'll see some very familiar names. :) |
