the bike has just sat in the garage for almost a year.
No more. Called my insurance agent, called my mechanic, and renewing DMV registration. It will be on the road again soon.
The Hawk will fly again.

for going almost one year without eating meat. I can only imagine the self-discipline that would take.
I can understand vegetarians (or is it “vegans” now?) wanting to give up meat as a step towards a healthier diet. (I frankly don’t believe a meatless diet actually is healthier, but that’s just me.) I can’t help wondering, however, why one puts a premium on animal life over vegetable life. To me, it has always seemed that ripping a carrot out of the ground to die a slow death in a produce section somewhere is not much different from killing an animal for food. It certainly is no more “moral.” I think there’s a certain beauty in all us creatures eating all the other creatures, passing the nutrients and life itself from one to the other.
Life is life. Life is not inherently worth less just because one living thing can’t outrun the other living thing.
