The Inauguration


This is the inaugural post of "Pound the Gavel", the pleasantly multifaceted blog wherein i discuss a diverse array of topics. This blog will most likely revolve around biking, music, and computers.

To start, I will now introduce myself.

I live in Chicago, and I own two bikes (well, three if you include that shitty mountain bike i found in the basement of my apartment) - a 2008 Specialized Sirrus (sweet commuter!) and a 2005 Specialized Allez. They are both pretty much stock and the Allez is right now not in great condition. I bike about 70-90 miles a week, mostly commuting to and from work - a distance of about 10 miles.

I work at an unnamed large corporation in the IT department. I fix computers and manage software and stuff like that. Its not all that interesting but I do take a lot of calls from people who do not know what a mouse is. Hilarity (or extreme frustration) often ensues. I will probably detail some of the juicier calls now and then.

I listen to hip hop. Lots of underground and older mainstream. My subgenre of choice is that new york sound from about 90-98. In other words, Rakim to just before puff daddy. I will discuss music as well.

Stay tuned for the most exciting posts you will ever read.
