...and this is how they all became the Brady Bunch!

Oh blessed be the Gods of CBS!  With a special shout out of love for Vince Vaughn!!
I was of the generation that was born and raised on the myths perpetuated by the suburban bliss depicted within the hallowed halls of the Brady home.  Often time wondering why my family did not function on the erstwhile principals preached with in this finely tuned family unit where the worst signs of dysfunctions were Cindy's unhealthy attachment to Kitty Carry-all, Bobby's tattling and Greg's need for his "own space".  In no small  way did it shape my own disillusioned desire to sire and raise a large family of my own. I'd kill to have only a busted horse statue to show for my troubles!  
Now, word on the wire is that Vince Vaughn and the offspring of original creator Sherwood Schwartz are planning a reboot of the old series, this time out with a newish twist.  Seems Bobby (apparently to be played by the original) is all grown up with kids of his own, divorced and remarried to a woman who too, has children from a previous marriage and both sirring one of their own!  The chance for original cast guest shots abound!  Unlike the failed attempt back in 1990 to revive the original cast in a dramody aptly entitled "The Brady's" this will be a return to family comedy.  With Vince's comedic input this truly could work out to be something interesting.  My hopes is they approach it from a realistic perspective with all dysfunction in place.  
ANYWAY!
Even given the staunch humidity, and gray overcast skies saw many a fine folk popping in to check out the lay of the land today.  And many were new faces just recently discovering our hidden little nook of Veloist territory.  Sold the GMC Denali right off as she seem to be the bell of the ball today.  Had more then a dozen calls before eleven am and thought it may come out to a bidding war.  Lucky gent made it down from Tampa before any one else and snagged it up.  Also thanks to the gent coming in for a couple tune ups and some very nice words, not to mention a great tip!  Thanks! And to Bill for opting out of main stream bike buying and ordered up a single speed road bike rebuild custom!  Thanks for going green! Managed top get out one rebuild today, a simple ladies single speed cruiser "Daily banger Special"  Sorry, no pic as fate would have it as I took it outside it began to poor and I just got disgusted and forgot!  But I'll put it up tomorrow.  Spent most of the day trying in vain to once again clean up our surroundings as we have once again started to amass a load of....bikes.  One in particular is a sweet Diamondback Hybrid that I will be diving on tomorrow!
So with that, I'd best sign off and try and get a little shut eye before the am feedings begin!
Night!
