Sorry

I haven't been saying a lot here lately because it's been too damn cold to type stuff.

You know the weather has turned cold when you have to put your Gu2O in the microwave for two minutes and heat it up to boiling, so it will be merely cold when you go to drink it 45 minutes later.

On this morning's ride, I reached for the water bottle, and came up with a lovely water flavored slushy.

Oh yeah, that really helped the asthma.

On the plus side, it does help with weight loss. Each of the huge slugs of unidentified lung mass that I coughed up after drinking the frozen water, which is known to some scientists as "ice," weighed nearly 4 ounces. So I lost at least a pound just coughing.

I'm going to try this more often, though I'm tempted to put gin in the water bottles, to reduce the pain of this particular diet. Maybe a little vermouth too, and some lemon. Sounds awful, I know, but I need to preserve my health and strength, if for no other reason than to continue serving you, loyal readers. Matter of fact, I'm going to test that mixture right now. Anybody seen my olives?

Bottoms up!
