You must have the sound on. The music and visuals are totally trippy. A co-worker's husband works for Goggle and they use a bike like this to move about the campus and have a meeting at the same time. It's very popular and you have to reserve it. They also have regular single person bikes to help staff get around; I take it the campus is quite spread out.

For meetings of a sensitive nature, do they have a cone of silence?
Enjoy


My Day

License plate frame spotted on a Prius today: My Other Car Is A Horse.

Work was a combination of crazy busy and silly goofing off.

Pigeons continue to captivate me. Today I threw out one piece of soft hamburger bun. A small female cautiously approached it. After a few pecks, a horn-dog big male pigeon spots her. Tail feathers fanned and tucked to the ground, wings slightly elevated and his chest puffed to the max, he chased the female around and around the plaza. She always found a way to angle back towards the bread and get a peck or two in before he ran her down again. After 5 minutes of this, he noticed the bread too. He'd approach her ready for a mating, notice the bread and instantly chest deflated, wings dropped and tail contracted to a normal position. A few bites of bread, then the female would move into view trying for some bread too. Up he puffed, chased the female for a few feet, remembered the bread, deflated, ate, notice the female, chased the female . . . rinse, lather, repeat. This on-again, off-again horn-dog behavior continued until the bread was gone. Choices, choices, choices.
