Hey #bikedc in case you're looking for an ebike, here's the link to the Rad Expand 5 folding class 2 (20mph, throttle) bike I'm selling! https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/bik/d/washington-rad-power-bikes-rad-expand/7610820990.html

One of my greatest achievements in life has been adding a lyric so repeatedly that the ducks on the bus go quack quack quack that my wife instinctively sings it to our son too

Today in Wikipedia it occurred to me that the word “crimson” in English comes straight from Persian kermes and is cousins with the versions in the languages I know, the Turkish kirmizi and Armenian karmir. Don’t have much more to say than languages are neat and man Proto Indo European got around

Feel like I should be doing book reports whenever I emerge from a Wikipedia hole. Did you know that the fox sitcom married with children ended abruptly with no final episode or season and Ed O’Neill the lead actor found out it was cancelled after two fans told him how much they were sorry while he was on vacation back home in Youngstown Ohio, and after he bought their lunch?

Hey #bikedc, a little plug for my bike mechanic, Walker -
@littlerome - he's been my "It's okay, I know a guy" for some 5 years or so! First started working with him when we took my crash-damaged Raleigh and used the repair time to upgrade the hell out of it - a dynamo powered do-anything commuter, and he's been my make-my-e-bike-perfect engineer since I went electric. So attentive and in your corner even when you don't know what you want. Wouldn't take my gear to anyone else! #biketooter
