I've always wondered how astrologers cope when new planets are discovered Same way they coped with the old ones. They watch the transits to discover what kind of planet it is. and considering the relative size of pluto and its distance from Earth how come they don't take all the asteroids and other minor bodies into account? Some do, some don't. It's a disputed question in astrological circles. -- Chris Malcolm +44 (0)131 651 3445 DoD #205 IPAB, Informatics, JCMB, King's Buildings, Edinburgh, EH9 3JZ, UK [http://www.dai.ed.ac.uk/homes/cam/] |

I'm not saying this to be a smartass or wiseguy, but because it sounds like you have some serious issues that you are trying to cope with using this bogus astrology business. I agree. Bogus astrology is dangerous rubbish. Stick to the genuine stuff. -- Chris Malcolm +44 (0)131 651 3445 DoD #205 IPAB, Informatics, JCMB, King's Buildings, Edinburgh, EH9 3JZ, UK [http://www.dai.ed.ac.uk/homes/cam/] |

And poof! You're that weirdo you saw in the LBS years ag -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky please substitute yahoo for mousepotato to reply Home of the meditative cyclist: http://home.earthlink.net/~cpetersky/Welcome.htm Personal page: http://www.geocities.com/cpetersky/ Your home pages are absolutely WONDERFUL!!!! Thank you for putting them out for all to enjoy. I feel as if I have a new meditative internet companion. I would put my home pages on here, but its all fluff. Maybe I will try to become more intellectual.....NO CHANCE!!!!!!!! I like being a little bit of a goof-ball. It keeps me young in mind and spirit. Body is another issue. ;-) This morning when I took my bike out, I fell in my driveway. But I did NOT give up. I rode my bike through little suburbia for 30 minutes. I was sooo proud. Then I read your meditations. I will be leaving for Lake Tahoe again in November for a short vacation. Its wonderful riding out there. The only thing you can run into is a mountain. (or a horse). After I do the casino thing in Tahoe, I will stay with my niece in Carson City. Great place to ride a bike. And a horse. I think I better do some work now. I am getting obsessed with this newsgroup.

Maggie, 'way back when, when I was a jeans and sneakers style cyclist, I saw a guy at the LBS wearing the most outlandish get-up I ever saw. Black tights, a high vis chartreuse vest, black booties, weird wrap around sunglasses, cleats that he couldn't walk in. I thought, god, it takes all kinds. But you know, you pedal a few miles, and you find out that real bike shorts are a lot more comfortable than jeans. And that tight, stretchy clothing is a lot more comfortable than loose, non-stretchy clothing. Clipless pedals are so much more efficient than not having them, such that you can't imagine how you ever rode with a flat pedal and sneakers. And that when motorists can see you, then they do their best to avoid you, and so you find high visibility colors and fabrics to wear because it makes you safer. Your feet get cold and wet after a long ride, and so you seek out neoprene booties to keep your feet nice and dry, no matter how hard its raining. Wrap around sunglasses keep crap out of your eyes and you don't get migraines from glare any more. And poof! You're that weirdo you saw in the LBS years ago. Ok everyone, let's hear it for POTM! Go CP! -B yep, black tights, black spandex top, Gekos, and Optic Nerves. Good to go. |

I wouldn't hesitate to say that the rest of us ride bicycles in the real world, and not in the park. Well screw the real world. Every wuss here in wussville, the small and the tall, ride their bicycles safely and go to the mall. I am not prepared to ride in the BIG CITY yet. Maybe someday, but right now I think I will ride safely in my little quiet town. PEACE |

You have just described me on my cycle to work this morning except the wrap around sunglasses were clear because it was dark and the neoprene booties are not much good when the road is 8 inches below the water surface due to the heavy rain here in Edinburgh. The strange thing is, I still enjoyed the cycle in. -- Mark 1x1 wheel, 3x2 wheels & 1x3 wheels. |
