has anyone heard from pianowolfi?
on: July 24, 2007, 11:18:23 PM
i hope he has written here since last week around wednesday.  i hope that he is alright.  he is very daring.  he saw four bears on his way to pennsylvania through the appalachian trail.  and, like elspeth - is now seeking thrills elsewhere - and probably only slightly phased by this bear experience.

it would make me very happy to know that he is not road kill somewhere along the path of his journey (of which i can't give the exact location - because of the paparazzi that might follow him).  i just find his trip more interesting than the tour de france.  don't you just wonder if somebody did something to that one guys bike or tire.  it just seemed a bit odd.  no matter.  when you're soloing - you just sabotage yourself.  but, pianowolfi seems to know how to patch tires and get along pretty well.  but, i'm just worried to know if anyone has heard from him since last wednesday?

Yes I have heard about him. This strange guy is cycling on the "Flaming Highway of Death" as a fellow bicyclist named this road. And he's going NORTH, against the wind. There are southbounders and northbounders. Northbounders are the cyclists with the hard cool look that always fight against the strong wind and when they arrive on a campground they have always a bunch of people around them who admire them for this incredible effort. Ladies faint. And children scream: "A Northbounder, daddy, a northbounder!!!!" (Okay maybe here Pianowolfi was a bit exaggerating, hee hee) It's awesome and he enjoys it very much. He says that he is on a very special journey, actually it has to do with two different journeys, the inner one that has to do with his program "Styx" and the outer one that communicates with the "Styx" journey. And often they are both in sync with each other. It's great fun and it's deep. And you know, this guy is crazy, as so often ;). Next week he's heading up to the highest mountains in that region...oh gosh, and with 60 or 70 pounds of baggage...actually crazy.

Hope you were nice to the bears! Marmalade sandwiches and so on... oh, hang on, no, you'd have to be in Peru for that to work... I'm getting withdrawal symptoms having not been to see them in the wild for a year or so. Last summer in Finland... happy days.

I'm off to try my hand at tigers in a couple of weeks, can't wait!
Go you big red fire engine!

pianowolfi,  is that you?!  you have survived the flaming highway of death thus far - and are going north?  i knew you'd survive.  like elspeth you pick the path of most resistance and end up the better for it and not the worst. and, you don't look like you've been picked up for doping (unlike the guy on tour de france - which was probably taking painkillers for that last fall he had).  did you see him limp off the stage? 

pianowolfi - you've lost some hair since i last saw you (or is that a glint of sunshine on your head?)  you didn't shave the top since visiting the 'king tut' exhibit did you?  next thing will be some black hair dye.  a visit to an egyptian jewelry site.  and, voila.  egyptian cycler.  oh, and you might need a cycling shirt with king tut on it.  *why didn't i think of that at the king tut visitor's trinket store?  or - one with a bare chest and only jewelry.  actually that would be the way to go because real jewelry would weigh you down.

60-70 lbs?  pianowolfi- you're not going to have to do any sort of gut-busting exercises after this.  your old girlfriend will be a distant memory (unless she reappears in the styx mode as nefertiti or cleopatra) and as you say - women and children alike will be just standing in awe at the checkpoints as you near the peak where the sphynx await you.  keep us posted, ok?

Lol lol ;D *rubs hands and thinks about VERY cryptic stories on sphinxes, nefretitis and Tut's*(but has unfortunately no time to write them)

Nooo i have not lost hair, just weight hee hee. I am a northbounder after all :P 8)

I had a serious discussion on this with Tom Selleck and he said no ;D.
