Solvitur ambulando

Hah, I snuck this ride in on you without the usual bragging beforehand.
From here to MOHAI 10.8 mi on the Volvo odo, 10.8 on Fidelio's.
The thing that needed some solvitur was a flat tire which is what caused the ambulanderie. It was the new one too, I'll have to do something about it.
Got a chance to measure my walking pace, however; 3.5 mph.
Overall avg for trip 7.8. Max speed 35.1
Other measurements ht-6ft, wt-195, IQ-150, smarts-not much, belt-37in, max speed without bicycle-once timed at 18 mph, fastest ever driven 130 mph at S.I.R. in a Ferrari 250 LM (Le Mans)
Fastest ride as a passenger-240 km in a Maserati Ghibli on the freeway downtown Seattle in heavy traffic (it might have been moderate traffic, but when they seem to be going backwards at 80, it's heavy)
So, today I will rip out the old cabinets and patch the wall behind, then set the new cabinets in place. Unless it starts to seem like work.
On the music front, I'm writing piano trios. Piano, bass, and some sort of wind thingie. Inspired by nostalgia for the piano, bass, and flute thing I did at Soundbridge so long ago. Ah the good old days, when Meighan was just a good musician with an exquisite sense of musical timing.
Oh, tempos, Oh, amores

Got a nice one for clarinet, and starting on something for Eng. horn, clarinet and piano.
This post is on the "new" computer, when I get a faster whachacallit, I should be able to set up a website and post more mp3s.

I can post pictures from here again.

I'd complain about a dearth of violinists again but Anonomann has ordered me to quit whining about it, so I will say no more.
