I think I need new pants...

So, I was looking around on the intranets when I found something that blew my mind. I'm in the process of customizing a second fixie, so I was hunting for wheels. Thats when I ran across this.

(Not sure if I can hotlink like that, but I just did. Sue me.)
Velocity Deep V track wheels with custom powdercoat graphics. Sign me up. As soon as these get released, I'm booking a pair. Actually, I may go see if my bike shop is taking preorders at lunch tomorrow. And if I can't get some of these, then I'm getting woodgrain. I can't wait for this thing to start taking shape.

I am a velociraptor

I bought a new toy last weekend, an Emerson Folding Karambit. It has quickly become my favorite knife, if for no reason other than it makes me feel like a Velociraptor when I hold it. If that isn't enough to make a knife a great purchase, then I don't know what is. It is one of those things that taught me to respect it almost immediatly. Within 24 hours of purchase, I had sliced open my middle finger and cut a solid chunk of skin and a bit of muscle from the tip of my pinkie finger. I am now much more careful with it. Just a not-so-subtle lesson that even a raptor can cut itself on its own talons

Getting Started

OK, just want to start off with a little disclaimer. This isn't necessarily about sunshine or midgets, but may contain occasional doses of both. I don;t really know why I'm setting this up in the first place, or what I'm going to use it for, but hopefully something cool will develop. Here's to the awesomeness I'm hoping to cultivate!
