Adventures in Cheese

I'm visiting my family in Idaho. Today we went to a store called Fred Meyer, it's pretty upscale. I enjoyed looking around at the varieties of foods there, I especially enjoyed the cheese counter. Dig it.

Ride to Work, if you Can and Want To

Some cyclists seem to be rather militant about encouraging more people to bike to work and around town. I'm not one of those people. I also drive a car, and I think that creating an artificial bike/car dichotomy is counterproductive. But I do really enjoy riding my bike to and from school and I hope to be able to bike to and from work in the future, you know, when I get a real job. I think that if more people in the U.S. are to bike to work or around town, we need to make it more convenient to do so. The city of Irvine is pretty bike-friendly. There are many bike paths, they are nice and wide (for the most part) and the city sweeps them regularly. But Irvine doesn't hold a candle to Portland, OR or Copenhagen Denmark. Check this out. (And why do all the Danes in this video seem so soft-spoken and friendly?)
