Definitely open up a bike thread! Also, once you retire, stay around in some form or proceed with the blog idea.
All the bike talk had me taking the bike out in the fields here. We're having an abnormal surge of temp up to 50F this weekend on Scandinavia. Definitely climate change shows with some strange variability.
Jorde,
Saul has some JPEG's.
"Maggie" started her blog a little more than 4 years ago at the age of 61. Now it is my turn.
Soon Maggie will pay to go to Paris for their Fashion Week. At this level no one will be paying for this travel, but her agent is mighty happy with the results from NYC Fashion Week. She attended some exclusive shows and 4 out of 4 days was in Vogue's Street Style section photographed by Phil Oh. This all is prime exposure.
Also her agent says out of all his clients, even ones that have been doing it longer or who are more famous, that she gets the big contracts that they do not get.
Things will really open up from here.
Christian and Phil make a point that already I am somewhat a public figure because of my association with Maggie. Maggie also has been plugging me and priming her followers.
The problem for me that blogging would become work, and from what I see it is endless. Not the best for a self proclaimed "lazy slacker." LOL.
Pretty much though I imagine just being myself and reporting my lifestyle like I have been doing here. I really don't want to be more known than I already am.
As it is I do the NYC Meet-Up as a public service, and perhaps my sharing of other aspects of my life will be in the same vein as a public service based on a sustainable lifestyle/building a retirement and somewhat a travel/fitness exploration.
In other words disorganized chaos that is somewhat thoughtful rants that I do and somehow create entertainment value. LOL.
Let me know how you like the shots when Saul does me the favor. You guys are my focus group.
Speaking of focus groups I have been "profiled" and get recruited for studies. Pretty much $350.00 for about 3 hours per gig. The money is cash in a envelope. "I love it."
Pretty much you get recorded in an interogation room that has a two way mirror and video cams.
Last time was about developing a camera for a brand we all know and love. Pretty much a dream come true. Still waiting for my camera that I helped design to be built.
This time the interview will not be a group and they will be probing me as an individual as far as banking goes. Kinda fun since I think I have "Bankster" in my blood. Wednesday after work is my interview.
"I was just walking along, minding my own business," I say. Why does all this biz-R stuff happen to me?
