Wow, Stew- that's a pretty hefty ride And I was whining after my short little jog today (I would venture a guess that it was much cooler here, too) I have much admiration for you, mi amigo

I dig Missing Persons and Blondie as well!

In terms of 80s, I'm a bit more into dance and alternative such as New Order, Depeche Mode, the Smiths, etc. Little bit later I also really got into Underworld, if you've heard of them. But I've always dug the beat!

I love the Smiths!!! The best memory of my life has to be listening to The Smiths (on the jukebox -- not live or anything) in a pub in a small town in England in 2005. It was like living my dream from my high school days! Just like in high school, I was wearing my Doc Martens, smoking cigs (I quit smoking in 2006) and hanging with my best friend. Life didn't get much better than that moment!

I also used to listen to The Dead Kennedys, Sex Pistols, Violent Femmes, and of course, I listened to U2 in the 80s!

Someone once told me there are no live Armadillos. Apparently they are only dead beside the road.

Odd eh?

Would not surprise me, but how do they reproduce? I love the image of shaggy rambling zombie armadillos humping!

Congrats on the jog! Also great exercise, but... Try cycling, its easier on the joints!

I was also way into punk in high school! Seen the Dead Kennedys, Circle Jerks, Black Flag (w/ Rollins!), etc.

BTW, check out the link on Lounge Against the Machine - Richard Cheese does a lounge style version of "Holiday in Cambodia." Classic!

Yeah- but I like to combine my exercise with my pup's exercise. While it would be entertaining to watch her chasing after me on a bike- I think it might kill her

That's great. It's a nice family activity. I gave my old bike to our housekeeper so she can get to us more easily. I am on the hunt for a new one now.
