I am buried under the weight of a 33 story building in San Francisco right now. I've been banging my head against this monster for three weeks and putting in long hours to boot. Almost at the end...can't wait to relax, suit up and hit the road on the X1.

Why did I share this? I dunno...needed a release.

I'll post a rendering of the thing when I get through it.

sigh...I wish I could sell bikes for a living!

Hang in there.

We were at the Danville Hot August Nights tonight, and even did a starbucks in honor of our Thursday night starbucks meeting.

Fireman Jim, Woz, Stacey from Friction Zone, etc. were there. Arlen Ness and other folks hanging around...was cool. REX

Sounds like a great time, Rex. Glad so many turned out.

I hope to be loose from this project on Monday.

About 33 stories of glass, aluminum composite panel and a host of applications and features. The exterior is what I figure.

In about 9 months, union glaziers will "skin" this structure, leaving it as you see this computer generated rendering.

Jon:

I feel your pain. . . . working the 12PM to 7PM again this week.

We strung overhead wire on a transmission line as the sunset last night. It's been wire in cable tray to the main control building through the night. By the way, you think you have EFI problems.....

: )

The upside is that all the prisoners, across the water at Riker's Island are sleeping soundly. . .

Court,

I see that you and I are in the same boat! Thanks for letting me know. I feel a little better knowing that I am not dying alone!

I just finished up late this afternoon, it's my 44th birthday today and so I was late for my own party at home, but my lovely wife and children are worth the wait. I am truly blessed.

Cheers all around.
