I managed to use schlep in my latest post. With mensch, schmoe, and schlep, I'm more than halfway through my entire Yiddish vocabulary.

Now that the grammar police have had their say, thanks for the great write-up Ted. I needed a good laugh. Too bad Yiddish is a dying language – it has a nice ring to it sometimes.

Great interview, Tom.

I, too, wish we could depoliticize bicycling, remove the “left” or “right” and just do what’s “right.”

I just don’t understand the resistance to bicycling as transportation. Do you think people just aren’t looking at the evidence? Or are they looking at the evidence through personal-bias-colored glasses? Or is it a political stunt just to get “their way”?

Oh, and don’t forget: as soon as you have all those folks locked into their hotel rooms for the UCI World Championships, I expect you to get really hair-on-fire about insisting they let recumbents race!
