Freaks, geeks, flats, maps

Flat tire this morning. Cars are evil. There was a nail in the tire and it was only $8.00 to patch, but he said I need to get a new tire very soon. Maybe I should stop buying used tires.

While waiting around at the gas station, I met a gold prospector on his way to California to mine for gold. He had a fold down trailer and a bunch of tools in the back of his truck. I didn’t know people still mined for gold like that. Guess I assumed that corporations owned all the mines. Either that or they were empty.

I cannot stop watching Freaks and Geeks. A friend introduced me to it last week, I downloaded it the next day and I’m almost finished with the entire season. I think I have 3 or 4 more left to watch which I’m sure I’ll finish this evening. It’s a great show, in an after school special kind of way.

I’m still really loving Flickr. I’ve uploaded a large portion of my 2005 – 2007 pictures to it and I’ve been obsessively geotagging them all. It’s weird to be able to click on a map of my neighborhood and see hundreds of pictures of some old lady’s garden and the inside of her house, a couple blocks away.
