Something very much like nothing anyone had seen before came trotting down the stairs and crossed the room.

“What is that?” the Duke asked, palely.

“I don’t know what it is,” said Hark, “but it’s the only one there ever was.”

Magnificence from James Thurber. The 13 Clocks. I guess it’s a story for kids, but, I mean, goddamn, just start taking apart those sentences. How can they be so simple?

  • Finally,

    something from the last few posts I can understand….. HA

    Where do you find this stuff?

    Anyway – Hired Kim Geist to coach me. I hope it is going to make a difference. Lord knows I need something. I am so tired of riding around at the same speed all the time.

  • To Bill:

    I read your review of the Scott CR1 and want to ask you if you can compare to Cervelo RS? Same? One better? I know this is not correct place, but could not find out how to contact you through Bicycling.

    Thanks.

    Joe
