The group cycled a beautiful 15 mile Coral Gables route this morning. Just beat the rain home. What a refreshing start to the day.

NASA space shuttle launch

NASA space shuttle launch pad in the distance, Kennedy Space Center at
Cape Carnaveral, viewed from Titusville/Merrit Island.
After driving 150 miles to see the launch of the shuttle, word around
the hundreds of campfires were that it's been postponed till
Wednesday. Apparently due to a leak in the hydrogen tank.
Oh well, it was a beautiful drive and always great being out of Miami
and IN America.

The Don't Song

The song of the month!
We had quite a few chuckles over this one! (The base guitar player's mullet being the dream, of course.) ;-)

New Career 23 Years in the Making

From last week's Bristol Evening Post:

Outside Bristol Zoo is the car park, with spaces for 150 cars and 8 coaches. It has been manned 6 days a week for 23 years by the same charming and very polite car park attendant with the ticket machine. The charges are £1. per car and £5. per coach.
On Monday 1 June, he did not turn up for work. Bristol Zoo management phoned Bristol City Council to ask them to send a replacement parking attendant.
The Council said "That car park is your responsibility." The Zoo said "The attendant was employed by the City Council... wasn't he?" The Council said "What attendant?"
Gone missing from his home is a man who has been taking daily the car park fees amounting to about £400 per day for the last 23 years...!

Kostelike storie. Ek hoop die knaap is nou erens op 'n tropiese eiland besig om 'n Mojito uit 'n kelkieglas te teug. Hy verdien sy aftrede!

"Rogerrrrrr!!!" Finally.
