Another rainy day in Somerville, so no street fair today. Darn. I bought the Sunday New York Times to keep myself entertained. And I took a little trip to Borders to pick up the new Led Zep CD.

News of the Weird
From the most recent News of the Weird:
Officials at Somerville (N.J.) High School warned students in October to stop trying to get high by choking each other into unconsciousness. (With the so-called “California Knockout,” a student holds his breath for 10 seconds to get light-headed, after which a pal squeezes his neck to put him out.)
Go Somerville!
Somerset County Recycling
…I just realized I haven’t tied up the newspapers and put them out for recycle since March. Oops.
Tour of Somerville
Jonas Carney won the Tour of Somerville last weekend. Here’s the write up from the Star-Ledger, which will probably only be valid for another week or so. The funny thing about this article is that they interview a guy named Mark Garney, who I used to work with. He comes out for the race every year, but I’ve never managed to run into him. Maybe next year!
Memorial Day
It’s time for another Somerville Memorial Day bike race, which is always fun. Unfortunately, my Dad is in the hospital again, though, so that makes everything a little less fun. Still, it’s shaping up to be a nice day.
