Starting this Danzig nonsense was a slippery slope. Kevin had some news for us on this very subject.
"All Danzig! All the Time!
Note the adjectives: disingenuous, utterly egotistical, and inarticulate.

Go here to see even more big words.

Sláinte!  (cheers!)

Personally I think hes a wildly misunderstood genius. Somewhere inside of Kevin, I think he agrees with me.
Now to go from the hero with one first name, to the world traveler with two.

"Hi,
Thought you might like this. Wearing my SWOBO with pride at the Tour de France prologue in London on Saturday. The intersection outside Buckingham Palace - normally a seething maelstrom of traffic - becomes peaceful and human with closed roads:

Roger Wyatt
Guildford, England"

Good looking out, Roger. The part of the email I neglected to include were the attached photos of the Swobo stickers he subversively adhered to all 547 of the Royal toilets.

Theres a t-shirt in there somewhere.

The Ghost Shippers are like the Donald Trumps of the bicycle underworld.
Movers and shakers, every last one of em.

"Hey there bummer-lifers,
There's some bike debauchery going down this coming Sat, Jul 14th in the Elm City (New Haven, CT for those not down with the 203)...Ghostship will have a table set up @ the Swap, hocking all sorts of radness...we'll probably be 'ghosting' a checkpoint as well (for the Monopoly race)....will there be some sort of plank walking involved? hmmmmm.....and finally, we'll be racing in the Dash for Cash....trying not to puke on ourselves whilst going fast (or something like 'fast'). If you find yourselves sorting through some sort of drunken haze, wondering why you're wandering around CT this weekend, stop on by. We've got plenty of room in the galley if you need a place to crash. Hope all is going smashingly.
Love
Gship

July 14th -- Elm City Velo Swap  (plus more!)
This is a first for us. Our resident antiques specialist, Tom, has been on the horn with bicycle-swap types for a while now. Come on down and get some new old gear (or old new gear). Got too much in your basement? Borrow a table, call Tom, and get ready to make some beer money. There should be some sort of food presence during, and a nice old-fashioned bicycle beer-beque after. Did someone say skids, trackstands, and polo?

July 14th - Monopoly Alleykitten (and still more!)
Live Action game of Monopoly on the streets of New Haven. Any skill level welcome; previous winners will be turned away (or asked to work a checkpoint). We're hoping this brings out some new riders, so bring a friend.

July 14th - Dash For The Cash
This is the race for the big boys and mean girls. One checkpoint. Hella miles. Helmets and lights will be MANDATORY. No lights/helmet? No race. $10 to get in. Multiple cash prizes. Dash will begin on the New Haven Green at 10pm. 

Next up, Vernor mentioned this film to me yesterday, and Sky forwarded me the website today, further proving the theory that great minds really do think alike.
Carts of Darknesss.

She also forwarded the website of The Polaroid Kidd. Brilliance thats kinda reminiscent of Shelby Lee Adams Appalachian portraits.

Mr Adams, who was coincidentally born and raised in Hazard, Kentucky, depicts a Hazard doesnt look quite as fun loving as the one the Dukes lived in.

Now then, there is a special place, near and dear to my heart. It happens to be the backyard pool of a good friend of mine in the Bay Area, at which Ive spent many a warm summer day over the years. The times which we can enjoy said backyard happen with less frequency these days, however a reunion of sorts has been in the works for later this month. Recently I sent my gracious hostess this video expressing my gratitude for her endless hospitality, and since this might possibly be the last of its kind for a while, I thought we should emulate the video and go out in style.

She responded with these few simple words.
"I have dialed the 9 and the 1 and am ready to dial the other 1, when I see the slide."

Ill take that as a definite 'maybe'.

Lets see.. what else...
Oh yeah, Swobos finally got some new goods for the fairer sex.

Personally I tend to wear a smaller shirt on account of that it makes my muscles look bigger. If that reasoning follows, these shirts are gonna make me look hot beyond compare.

Do your eyes hurt like my two index fingers hurt?
I thought so.
