Win a Bike Tour

Thanks to reading a lot of alternative transportation blogs I found out about the Portland Peace and Justice Center and the unique bike tour they're offering this summer. If I had the money I would jump on this in a heartbeat, but I'll just have to hope I win one of the trips. Because I know other people who are into biking and sustainability and I support Portland Peace's cause here's their announcement about the tour:

Fruity Oaty Bars!

The UPS guy delivered my latest box of goodies from Amazon.com and now I have my very own copy of Serenity (2005). Yay!

I popped the DVD into Tornassuk (my PowerBook) and found a little easter egg. You too can see the Fruity Oaty Bar commercial thanks to Google Video. Now I can't get that song out of my head and I want to eat some fruity, oaty bars and kick some ass. (Bubblegum not required.)
