life as usual


Not much to report today. This morning held a satisfying commute via the bicycle, as has been the trend this week, and hopefully the season. And on a similar note, we had a dude trying to ride a bike whilst very drunk, and he crashed at about .02 mph. The photo was taken a few minutes after he bailed. He stayed prone for about 20 minutes, napping, we supposed. Then a buddy of his walked up, sipped his fallen comrade's beer, spat it out and took his bike. We asked him if it was his friend or his bike, and he assured us both were accurate assessments of the situation. After a quick cruise back to the scene to put forth a rousing effort to get his friend off the ground, he rode off into the path of a police car. After a frisk and an explanation, he was off to enjoy his new bike and a fresh beer. It was just another day at the office under the overpass.
