downtube shifter boss

June 16, 2010

Insert downtube shifter bolt into non-drive side shin at full speed with force = mass x acceleration 

Cherry Street at 7th Avenue is a hill steeper than most any in the Central Time Zone and to put it all in perspective I don’t ride for Metal Bikes

Are you OK?

One hour and twenty-two minutes ahead of the deadline but starting to shake the blood not yet dripping from the stigmata on each hand

I just need a stamp on the return copy and the messenger slip

embarrassment    denial    anger   adrenaline    pain  

Dangling from the downtube shifter boss a clump of hair held together by an oh-so-thin piece of skin which moments ago was part of my shin

What we have here is      a real choad checker      a reminder that we’re  all just one wet wood expansion joint away from you can have my job on a day like this     One taxi driver away from are you talking to me      One slick 3rd Avenue cheese grater away from fuck this        One brief shining moment away from weighing the pros and cons and realizing that the pros have gone on a long winning streak but the cons sure can catch up quick

One way to take your mind off a slight headache is to smash your thumb with a hammer      it helps to get priorities in order

As you know bike messengers are prone to exaggeration like I’ve been a messenger for like 23 years like if you read it on line it must be true like how many messengers does it take to screw in a light bulb like what the messenger said when he stopped smoking pot
