Is is a regular bike, DR John G., or electric assist?  Extra wide wheels?

My microwave is also only 1000W - so sometimes I adjust the times myself......

Not too much difference, but if you get 900W or lower - you might have to add a bit more time......

Salmon was good but you don't get the cedar plank at home.

Listening to a Saint-Saens opera called Le Princesse Jaune. Lightweight but charming.

Took the bike out for an hour or so. I don't think I've been on a bike for maybe 30 years.

It was a relearning experience. I could ride alright, but I had to learn how to shift gears on this one, how to handle corners and how to handle stops. I think I'm going to stay just in the neighborhood for a few days.

Good idea.  I hope you also had fun.

Hopefully I won't need to shop for a new microwave in the near future to compare wattages.

A regular bike, but 21-speed, meant for riding on pavement, not mountains.

Cool. It's been about 20 years since I saw a college production of the show. I loved it. Really looking forward to watching this.

Watching a strange French movie called Deerskin. A recently divorced and depressed man uses all his money to buy a fringed deerskin coat. He also wants to make a slasher film. The coat starts talking to him, and he begins to make his movie by really slashing people. It stars Jean Dujardin from The Artist. And well, it's just not as clever as it thinks it is.
