Random Accomplishment
Bret and the RFCCT (Random Family Charity Cycling Team) did a wonderful thing over the weekend. While you and I were napping in preparation for the Mavericks to lose yet again to one of the lesser teams in the NBA, Bret & Co. successfully completed the Houston-to-Austin MS 150 bike ride, raising four grand in the process.
Drop by and leave your congrats to Bret, but don't feel overly honored if he remains standing in your presence. That's just the normal aftereffect of riding 150 miles in two days.
Next up in the Blogger Charity Ride Series: Foo's North Texas MS150 over the first weekend in May.
shaking my moneymaker...
I could have gone all day without that mental image. ;-)

Just last week, for reasons better left unsaid, I couldn't shake Jefferson Starship's execrable "We Built this City (on Rock and Roll)" loose for a couple of days. That's just cruel and unusual punishment, dude.

Thanks for the shout out, Eric, and yes, shaking my moneymaker has moved far down my list of priorities for another day or two, but we're all in pretty good shape, which is quite a blessing.
It's an enjoyable ride, for anyone who has ever thought about participating in one of them in their vicinity. Well-organized, very safe, and a lot of fun for a good cause.
