Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 05/10/2026I was 4 years old, in the back of my family's Ford Country Squire wagon with the wood tone paneling, at the drive-in. The poison apple in Snow White was too scary for me. 010

Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 19/09/2026There's a bike shop a few doors down. I test rode a few bikes there recently. It's easy to go around back to Danehy Park, and just a crosswalk away from the mostly-lovely Watertown-Cambridge Greenway. But the shopping plaza itself is not at all friendly to peds or bikes. 030

Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 16/09/2026Fluffernutters are one of my favorite things about a couple organized late-September bike rides I do every year. It's just a shame I never make it to Somerville's What The Fluff festival because I'm always doing one of those rides the same weekend. 021
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 07/09/2026I'm so disappointed that the 2nd post at 2:41pm isn't referring to a "weird Al" Yankovic image. That could have gotten fun. 010
Reposted by Dave AdamsEvan Urquhart @evanurquhart.bsky.social · 31/08/2026I wrote about the most recent HHS study, and I wanted to draw attention to something I did a little differently than some of the other people writing about these things: I tried to lay out as clearly as possible how the study was done and what it claimed to be trying to accomplish. 720770

Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 28/07/2026I was once part of a captive audience on a flight from LAX to Hong Kong. A wedding was held while we crossed the International Date Line. At least I got a nice slice of cake out it, but I still shudder recalling the horrid "Wind Beneath My Wings" solo over the PA system. 001
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 27/07/2026It's so much easier to predict than it used to be before the pitcher was on a timer. Maybe, like me, they are old enough to get a bit surprised that the pitches are coming so often? 110
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 24/07/2026I always see this "Move Free" supplement while shopping at Costco, and I'm transported back to my mom's kitchen in 1970 before my uncle in the Air Force brought us a real rice cooker from Okinawa. 030
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 21/07/2026The story was that Oliver's frat made the group of pledges measure the entire bridge using him as a ruler. It's remarkable that he eventually became the chairman of ANSI and the president of ISO. In a sense, he has a lifetime of being the ruler of all rulers. 170
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 15/07/2026I just wish there would have been a flood of stories about newly proven health benefits of myrrh. Somehow, my brain already knew that myrrh and diarrhea have the same weird combination of R and H. Alas, I suppose that wouldn't have helped me with the "ends in IA or EA?" question. 000
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 13/07/2026It keeps on ticking, literally. I still ride my bicycles about 100 miles per week. Being on Coumadin is annoying, but life continues to be great and I have no complaints. 040
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 13/07/2026Same. I got my first echocardiogram as a teen in the '70s. In '94, an echo showed my ejection fraction (the % of the blood pushed out of my left ventricle each beat) was tanking, so I needed a composite valve replacement ASAP. I watched the last World Cup Final held in the USA from a cardiac ICU. 150
Dave Adams @dave.dnki.net · 12/07/2026We laughed for days after passing this friendly dude in Machias Maine (a short drive from Campobello New Brunswick) last summer. Google updated the street view and got some good shots within a couple weeks of our trip. maps.app.goo.gl/7RpnBbAE5JwB... 000
