NOT The Mavs

We are watching "Los Mavs"

Mavs point guard J.J. Barea makes me wonder, who are the top 10 NBAers known by their initials for their names? My list will be here in the future.

National anthem

In a version I haven't heard before, there was a perilous "light".

Rebuilding the motorcycle (1980 Suzuki GS850GL)

My wife bought this for me for Father's Day 2007 from her brother for $500. It (kinda) was in running condition at the time. I tried to improve it by replacing the leaking head cover gasket but it didn't help. I then decided to rebuild the engine, having never rebuilt an engine before. The fun part was the tear-down, obviously. I was careful to keep track of all the parts and where they came from.
So it has sat in my garage for at least the past 16 months. I now have been bitten by the bug again (spring time?) to get back to it. I'm going to try my hand at it until I get too over my head or frustrated. Attached are some pics of the current condition of the bike and also a pic of what it will hopefully look like in the future.

Lunchtime serenade

Went to Potbelly sandwich shop in downtown Ft Worth for lunch and they had live music. This dude was sitting up on this tiny loft playing his guitar.

Walking back

Caitlin at Victory Park. She's there, in the bottom right corner.

Witness to History!

Corny title to this post but Jason Kidd just reached 10,000 assists and is 4th in NBA history. Caitlin can tell my great-grandchildren that we were there.
