I'm going to try to ride 30 this weekend. I expect a disaster of some sort since I have ridden twice this year, for a total of just over 30 miles.

If you're within range of an atomic clock transmitter you can sync to it (with the push of the one button). It's also quite simple to switch time zones while traveling, which I've actually done once with it already. I like it a lot and love it because my wife picked it for me.

Here it is, Jacob. I'd estimate my wrist at 7-1/2 to 7-3/4 - pretty average I think.

A power switch (on the back panel at least) would be a pretty simple mod. I added one to my EAD because the front panel switch is only a half-off switch (weirdly).

My new watch (the Citizen) is 43mm which does not seem too big to me at all. More just right than anything. Slightly smaller would be ok, probably would not want to go bigger.

I can only hope that if you are, you'll drop a line. Gene and I keep swearing that we'll get together each year and so far we might be 50/50. It'd be pretty great to see both of you at the same time.

Hi Mike!

Happy birthday, Zach! MOTMOTMOTMOTMOTMOT

Raffy has been riding like a madman, from what I can see. It's supposed to rain or snow here for the next 6 days. Eff you, spring.

Happy birthday!

Better late than never! Happy birthday, Mike!

And just out of the oven, banana chocolate chip muffins.

Sure, I'll shoot you a PM later, it's really easy and very good.

Prepping for tomorrow - blueberry stuffed French toast.

It's windy as heck out but beggars can't be choosers.

According to at least one resource I found online, yes, 36.25mm case.

You had me interested until "midsize".

In a move that shocked absolutely no one... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/bbc/11506618/Top-Gear-Richard-Hammond-and-James-May-no-longer-work-for-the-BBC.html

Happy Birthday, Doug!!

Happy Birthday, indeed!

I disagree. As James correctly pointed out Top Gear existed before this cast and I strongly suspect that something, while obviously not being called Top Gear, is likely to exist with the 3 current hosts somewhere else. I imagine Mr. Clarkson's agent's phone is ringing off the hook. I also laugh at the statements that are being made that Top Gear will continue on without Clarkson. I can't imagine a scenario in which that is going to happen given that the remaining two presenters will no longer be under contract in the very near future (according to other reports). That said, he's a cock what transpired and I don't really question the consequences, regrettable as they are for my television watching enjoyment.

This made me laugh out loud.

I'd stick with that logic if I were you. No fewer than twice, and probably more if I care to jog my memory, I've bought point and shoot cameras to bridge the gap between my DSLR and phone. Bottom line, they all simply gathered dust. Basically nothing is a pocketable as a phone and once I'm beyond it actually fitting comfortably in my pocket I'd rather just carry the D7000 and be able to use it like a real camera. And my logic also gets highly tripped up on the idea of spending as much on a P&S as I would upgrading the D7000. Anyway, obviously opinions differ but cell phone cameras have gotten so good at this point that they really do cover a lot of ground for the casual photog. I've printed 24x36 poster quality prints from my GS5 and iPhones alike. In my book, that's good enough.

FYI - Abe's has long been a shady place to buy anything and often has prices that are simply too good to be true. I've ready horror story after horror story about them and camera gear so if it was my $$ I'd shop just about anywhere else.
