Not definitive, but dies anyone doubt that most sodas are bad for them? If you need more help kicking soda, this may help. I know I need it.

Trek Demo: Sunday
Another great morning! My buddy John and I set out to try some 29er action today. We met Kyle from Single Track Bikes in Flagstaff. He’s a friend of a friend.

Hackers Penetrate Nasdaq's Computers - WSJ.com →
We need to be spending time and money on computer security, not body scanners. When the cyber security bubble bursts (I’m speculating) the consequences will be worse than 9/11.
