Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from June 3, 2022 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Everyone in NYC has their last day of school at the end of June. Meanwhile, in the rest of the country, it's already summer vacation. The only solace is that while everyone else goes back to school in August when it's still 90-100 degrees outside, NYC enjoys summer vacation and then goes back as the weather cools down.

I've played plenty of rugby and coached kids a lot in American football (and played it informally, no pads), and although rugby is enjoyable, it's not for every kid; there are some types who'd be better and have more fun at American football. Even if a high proportion of NFL players develop brain damage, they're not representative of football players generally. The younger the players, the safer the game gets.

@Franco @2:01 I have a pretty good idea why I acted that way. I was a nerdy little kid in a working class neighborhood who got picked on a lot most of my school life. I always had my nose in a book, and my extremities were disproportional (I wore size 13s while I was still under 5 ft tall) so I was a klutz athletically. I got my growth spurt starting the end of my Junior year and went from 5'2" 100 lbs at the beginning of my Junior year to 6'5 180 before my Freshman year of college. When I grew into my hands and feet, I got a lot more coordinated, started excelling in sports, and was tall enough no one would fuck with me. The shoe was finally on the other foot, and I turned into the cocky jerk that I can still be from time to time.

On the bike front, a while ago I picked up an older GT Palomar (rigid fork) for my bride to ride around the neighborhood. It weighs a ton, but we're pretty flat so it should be fine for her. Paid around $10 at a church thrift shop. Every unpainted steel component had a nice coating of rust, the cobwebs were real and still functioning; overall, it looked like it hadn't been ridden since there was peace in the Middle East. Anyway, a few minutes ago, I finally put it on the stand, threw some lube on it, and tested it -- the front derailleur needs like one turn to be perfect, all rear gears work perfectly, brakes are perfect, one wheel was a little out of true that only needed three minor tweaks to get it back in line. One of the tubes is still holding air, though I'm replacing it anyway. I can't load and unload my Scott from the truck bed without needing more...
