A new cereal showed up in the pantry the other day, <a href="http://www.cerealvit.it/it/prodotti_dettaglio.php?cat_id=3&id=8&hash=4f1e99772ffae2a2e6786461b38c6f1d">Coffee Flakes</a>! These were found in the health food section, of course, in the HyVee over by Evil Borders in Bettendorf. While I don't think that they are going to become a regular feature on the table, it was certainly entertaining. As an added bonus, if you tend toward more milk than cereal, you have a very weak <span style="font-size:100%;">Café au lait left over.<br /><br />I don't think it's going to be replacing the daily bowl of oatmeal or the very occasional one of the lovely sugar covered ones from my youth (Coco Krispies, Frosted Flakes, or Alpha Bits).<br /></span>Zhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17485365330266807170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4323625202898163184.post-71457229290178246032010-03-29T17:12:00.008-05:002010-03-29T20:17:28.496-05:00The Post of The Month ClubMaybe I should delete this thing. I certainly don't seem to be doing well with respect to posts. Oh well... Let's see...<br /><br />1) The group rides have started up. Got shelled out of the first one as expected. Spent too much of my meager energy closing gaps. The good part is that I was there long after a number of folks that are actively racing were. So... I might even be able to manage a finish with the group this season.<br /><br />2) The hamstring issue seems to be clearing up. Not sure why, but I'll take it.<br /><br />3) More new music... I've heard a cover of Pink Floyd's Breathe, a couple of times on <a href="http://www.undercurrentsradio.net/UC/HOME.html">Under Currents</a>. It's done by a band named <a href="http://www.poormanswhiskey.com/">Poor Man's Whiskey</a>. In fact, they've got a whole album out covering Dark Side of the Moon (Darkside of the Moonshine). Here's a clip of them doing it.

Their FaceBook page recently had a link to a video from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/That_1_Guy">That One Guy</a>, a "One Man Band" act.
