Sturgeon’s Law

Ninety per­cent of every­thing is crap.


Derived from a quote by sci­ence fic­tion author Theodore Stur­geon, who once said, “Sure, 90% of sci­ence fic­tion is crud. That’s because 90% of every­thing is crud.” Oddly, when Sturgeon’s Law is cited, the final word is almost invari­ably changed to ‘crap’.

How’s That Work?

Donna and I went for a bike ride this morn­ing and ended up for break­fast out again. This time we switched things up a bit and went south of town, so instead of eat­ing at the New Moon Cafe we dined at Best Bagels. We get one bacon, egg & cheese bagel and a sec­ond plain toasted bagel. We each then get one half of each bagel and swap tops and bot­toms with half the B,E&C split between them. We learned long ago that get­ting two bagels loaded with break­fast food stuffs is too much for us to eat, not that we couldn’t do it, but it makes the last 3 miles home on the bike more difficult.

How is this for a neat trick, I went for a 10.8 mile ride while she went for 13.2 and we rode the tan­dem! Turns out her new cycle­com­puter has two sep­a­rate set­tings, so it could be swapped back and forth between two bikes if you were so inclined and some­how when I set the tire size cal­cu­la­tion num­ber I entered it for bike num­ber two and the com­puter was set to num­ber one. I broke out the instruc­tions and set #1 to the same num­ber tire size as #2, so no mat­ter what the com­puter is set for, it will read correctly.
