So, LCFC's latest manager has been given the push :o That's 4 managers in 18 months :( I get it, they play like an amateur Sunday park team lately, it's not pleasurable to watch. I can't imagine any decent potential manager wanting to add Leicester City to their portpolio now.
I haven't done anything 'diary worthy' lately as I can't walk too far but if the Sun shines tomorrow I might go around the block :) I expect a lot of US wikiloopers are having a bad time with the snow and ice which makes traveling hard and cuts off power in some parts.
I just added a lyric to a Reggae song by DiddierS. It reminded me of "No woman, no cry" (Bob Marley) so the phrase that came to me was "No way to get high" for some reason. To get the lyrics, I was Googling "Legal drugs" and "stuff kids use to get high". I cleared my history quickly. If anyone followed stuff I search, it would be quite a surprise but it's all just for song lyrics. I enjoy writing about things I'm not familiar with, which is contrary to the popular idea of writing about yourself and what you know. All very educational :D

Yes I was thinking about you when it was announced, who know maybe they find a young ambitious manager who will come in and get these overpaid primadonnas playing. Worked for United, at least for two games now. Keep the faith!

Dear Diary, TeeGee here. Not much happened in the past days. Slept, worked, ate. repeat.
Kept busy with all sorts of projects that are already in the make, this is the next one, "Project Mrs. Gee's motorcycle:"
Background: Mrs. Gee wants to ride a motorcycle, she does not want to sit on the back of mine, it's too boring she says. So a year and a half ago I bought her a small 500cc motorcycle to get back riding, but when test riding it I slipped at a very slow speed but fell awkwardly and broke 8 ribs in multiple places, + the collarbone :O.
So that got me thinking about the whole thing: Mrs. Gee hasn't been in control of a motorcycle since the 90ies, and even then she was not riding on a regular basis. I have been riding continually since 1986 - still managed to fall off. Plus, she already has a new aftermarket custom replacement hip. Can't bear to think what happens if she does the same as what I did.
So I thought, maybe a bike with a sidecar? I used to have one, it's fun, and you don't tend to fall off too much. So I discussed it with her, and although not overely thrilled, she agreed. I started to look at bikes ith sidecars, but then I remembered the problem of pushing the outfit when you need to reverse it. They get very heavy. Mrs. Gee is strong, but she weighs around 55 Kg. outfit weighs around 300 kg or more. There will be only one winner.
So I looked at outfits that have a reverese gear, some are available but very expensive. So then I stumbled upon the CanAm Spyder... three wheels (does not fall over), plus reverse gear. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Can-Am_Spyder
But, if I get one of these, I have to park it somewhere, right? Can't have it standing in the rain. So the next big project will be: Build a garage. So I will have to find a straight spot, lay some concrete plates, and get it installed:

Well, while standing I would agree - but in curves? Hmmm. How about one of these scooter-like things with a double wheel in the front? They still enable you to "lay into the curve", and also don't fall over while at a stop.

Did you look at the link? These Can am are very stable in curves because they have two wheels at the front. When you have 2 wheels at the rear, that is a completely different story...
