      Life as a fairly new lawyer

      Thursday, May 17th, 2007

      I haven’t been able to keep up with the blog much lately but did want to post a quick note to let friends know I’m still alive. Work has been ferociously busy but good. Starting my law practice has been both easier and harder than I thought it would be. Easier in that clients have […]

      Catching up on bicycle milage for 2006

      Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

       
      I’m way, way behind on keeping track of my biking milage (something I used to be very obsessed with, as you can see from these posts), but I thought I would least try to make a rough estimate for last year, and then get back on track for this year.
      Here are my estimates of miles […]

      My current pedicab rig

      Saturday, September 2nd, 2006

       

      I don’t think I’ve mentioned this on the blog, but I switched pedicab companies about a month ago from Brickshaw Buggies to Bricktown Pedicabs (here’s a post that shows pictures of the cabs with Brickshaw). Both companies are good folks to work with, but I made the switch because the rent was cheaper with the […]

      Bicycle Commuting Report - Late May through early July

      Friday, July 14th, 2006

       
      I used to do a really good job of keeping track of my daily mileage (here’s my last such update from back in May), but I kinda fell of the wagon. I didn’t ride a lot during those last few weeks of May, but then after that I started doing the pedicab and started putting […]

      Back from NOLA

      Sunday, May 21st, 2006

       
      I got in this afternoon from my trip to New Orleans, which turned out to be very enjoyable.
      I’ll be posting pictures and more stuff later on, but I’ll tell a few highlights now…
      The NACBA convention was very good. I learned a lot, both about the mechanics of bankruptcy law practice in the post-BARF (Bankruptcy […]

      Getting caught up on Bicycle milage (February-April)

      Thursday, May 11th, 2006

       
      Well as regular readers of this blog may have noticed, I kinda fell off the wagon when it comes to keeping track of my bicycle milage a few months back (I think about 2 weeks before I took the bar exam). Since then I have not been riding nearly as much as I did when […]

      Stuff going on

      Monday, May 1st, 2006

       
      Sorry to not blog more lately but I’ve been pretty preoccupied lately. One wonderful highlight of late was getting to participate in Catholic Peace Fellowship of OKC’s conference on “War - Conscience - Catholicism”. I’ll have to write more about it later, but it truly was those beautiful times when you are reminded why it […]

      More interesting local Bicycling news

      Tuesday, April 18th, 2006

       
      One story that is not online but is in print is that this week’s Oklahoma Gazette has a great article on the Critical Mass rides in Norman and OKC (I got quoted about the OKC ride which was fun). For more info on the Norman ride click here. For the OKC ride, meet us on […]

      Oklahoma City’s extreme vulnerability to high gas prices

      Fort Worth Star-Telegram: Drivers pay price for being in commuter corridor
      The part I have in bold in this quote is pretty scary…
      “Sun Belt or land-locked cities that developed largely during the suburban boom of the 1960s and 1970s, when car ownership and sprawl development patterns began to proliferate, are the American cities most vulnerable to […]
