The Bike Path or Chappelle's Show

So I've been biking a little the past couple of days.  Of the two bikes that we have in the house right now, I managed to take the need parts to form one working one.  The other one's chain is all fucked up and had to donate its tire caps.  The good one is my old yellow mountain bike that I got in junior high.  Still works!  Anyway, the path that I've been biking is the one down near Wilkes called, I believe, Marj Edey park.  I followed it all the way to the end, which takes you to the perimeter highway, and it took about 1/2 hour.  It was super nice and fairly peaceful, as it is surrounded by bush and fields.  If only there was some more nature there...  I mean I saw a rabbit and birds, but it would've been cool to see something else...  there's a fox living in the field near the warehouse that I work at, so why not in the big freakin forest by my house...   ???
I just finished watching season 1 of Chappelle's Show and had a few laughs.  On the whole, the show was pretty good but tended to be a little "black comedy" centric.  Not that there's anything wrong with that, as it was written, acted by, and geared to the african americans.  It was, at times, like a whole show of that old Simpsons bit where the comedian was talking about how white and black people drive.  Pointing out how square we are and how hip they are...  That is funny for a while, but tends to get old...  Other times though, the show bordered on freakin' brilliant.  All in all it's worthwhile to see if you enjoy sketch comedy.
Ryan rented WWE RAW 2 for the Xbox so we played that a bit over the past few days.  I kinda like it although no wrestling game has ever topped WWF No Mercy for the N64 for gameplay.  This one has amazing graphics, great modes, and the ability to have 6 guys in the ring at once.  Too long have wrestling games been stuck in 4 guy mode...  I'd like to see one that could have 8 wrestlers, a ref, and 4 managers all going at once...  Then you could do 8 man tags or the old style survivor series.  That and you could bring back managers... something today's wrestling lacks. 
Stobart gave me copies of the photos from RAW, which turned out awesome and the photos from the Fire Rum evening which border on embarrassing...  I'll print out the best ones the next time I'm at Shoppers I guess and anyone who wants to see them can.  Oh yeah, there's a video he got of me doing the Curly, you know spinning on the ground yelling "whoooop whooop whooop whoopp."  Ouch....   There's also one of Ryan dancing and trying to sing along to "Informer" by Snow... funny shit.
