My father was Zorro.

Dear Readers,
True story.
"hey, hon in our twenty years together there are a couple of words I have noticed that you have developed your own slower Delaware-weirdo-family pronunciation " I said playfully to Monkey as we drove toward Twenty 20 Cycling Company Saturday afternoon.


"What do mean?" Monkey responded coyly...

"Well," I explained, "say bull."

Monkey obliged, "Bull"

I continued, "now say shit."

Monkey says, "shit"

"Now, say them together " I direct her.

"booshet" she says.

We both start laughing. "What exactly is "booshet" ?" I ask.

In protest Monkey says, "that's not right."

"I have another." offering up my next pearl of wisdom. "say jack"

She says, "jack"

"now please say ass." I request.

"ass" Monkey utters, almost starting to laugh.

"And put them together:" I say leading the witness

"jeckace" She says.

"Really, jeckace huh?" "what exactly is that?" we both start laughing as we speed down the I 95.


"Dude, you are not right, that is some serious booshet, you jeckace!" she jabs at me, as we both burst into laughter.

Dear readers, seriously, get my wife to say "jackass" or "bullshit" and hear for yourself. I am not making this up.

Potter and Layla are getting comfortable together...

I took this picture when I cracked at Fairhill Saturday. I thought it would be a cool shot. I was wrong.



Fort James, who now rides for the Secret Henry's Team, and I did a nice loop of the Granogue course this morning, prior to our Granogue Work Party. We did a couple loops around the Weymouth's section. There is a rock garden that I haven't cleaned in maybe 5 years. I mean Spot was still a Canadian Company. Peaches only had one kid, Todd was still really fast up hill, and well Fort James rode for Fort. I have to say it took 4 runs at it, and made it twice.  I was stoked.

Heather, Jimmy and Anne Rock headed out after working the course, to take the fruits of their labor.


had a great group of folks out working on the Granogue Course. We have a couple of nice new twists for this year. I won't list who all is here, because well, when I make lists I get myself in trouble. Lot of work done today, lots to do still.  You should go here and register. It's gonna be an awesome racing this year for sure. Thanks to everyone that came out to help pull the course together.

Get read for a seriously cute picture of Potter.
respect.

....not sure but I think Layla is looking @ Potter like..."I wonder if they would miss him if I buried him in the back yard!"

Lisa just said something very similiar, like Layla is looking at Potter the way our cat is looking at our new girls.
