I ran across this photo and at first I thought it was a joke.. it doesn’t appear to be… This is amazing, I can not imagine the kind of boom this would make if a spark hit the bag click on the picture below for the story - apparently the sack is filled with natural gas!

There has to be a happy medium between the scared-y cat environment we live in where we worry about everything and riding down the street when your 10 years old with a back of explosive gas behind you… There certainly is lots of room to work with that is for sure.

Some neat things in the picture:
- the boy looks 8 - 10 years old and this is clearly a “man’s” job as there is clearly some risk in this job
- there is a tube on the bike that looks almost like a makeshift gun holder or a stick holder… wonder what it’s for
- that bike is definitely a single speed

My posting frequency is going to die down again
- I have business guest in town tonight and tomorrow
- I have some business travel coming up (Thurs, Fri)
- I travel back to Calgary and am offsite in meetings for 3 days
- I do a day trip to Toronto (midnight flight out and back that same day for dinner)
- and - I hope to go sleep in the bush for a weekend.

So until the 26th when I am back in NYC things will likely be somewhat quiet around here.
