Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Receive 0% APR…

 In a woefull sign of the times, Parker Brothers has sold the soul of Monopoly to VISA.  That's right, the timeless classic is now partial owned by Visa.  

Changes afoot?  You bet!  You don't need that real money (oh the irony of arguing the realness of monopoly money)… you just need your VISA CARD!  AHHHH! I can't believe it. I'm blown away with the thought of swiping your Visa card to purchase Park Place.  Passing go and sending your money directly to Mr. Visa.  It's terrible it's a travesty and oh yes, it does actually come with a Visa card and a card reader instead of the paper money.

Funny Support Phone Call

Our friends over at StillSpinning.net posted a pretty funny call into a customer service center regarding… ah, uhm… let's just say it wasn't a computer…

Don't worry, it's still funny regardless of which support center this actually occurred in — and really which center has this not occurred in…

Note: just ignore all the blue… I think they're playing with their site design

Tri 2 Update

Another day another ride — except it's been a bit since my last… According to my Forerunner, May 13th! Ouch.  Too much time finishing the basement and not enough training.  Today's going to hurt.

Oh yeah only did a half distance today and that was plenty.
