A couple of personal records to report

I’m pretty sure Dec. 28 is the latest date in the calendar year that I have ridden my bike to work.

But after providing those right-on-cue puffs of snow Saturday morning (the day before Christmas), Mother Nature can do whatever she wants and I won’t squawk.

The other record? I got panhandled before 6 a.m., as I was about to put my bike in the handsome cage out behind the newspaper building. That has to be the earliest.

Guy said he wanted to buy some coffee.

I gave him a buck and he asked God to bless me.
