There was about a 2 block long slight rise that at times felt almost insurmountable- always left me feeling a bit like you described. Maybe it was just the time of day, but... i don't miss that commute.<br /><br /> Rick Smith drew a Yehuda Moon comic that mentioned this phenomenon and termed it the "Commuter Triangle." i kept a print of it on my locker at work.<br /><br />Hope your waterfall sinuses are drying out!mike w.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10317710564489321690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8908461644259659419.post-51009006129010476562016-03-30T13:58:39.165-07:002016-03-30T13:58:39.165-07:00Leo..

But fear not: volcanic sinuses will soon regain their old dormancy, our old state of health, solid as granite, will return.<br /><br />Sorry: just trying to continue your geological imagery...<br /><br />Get well soon.<br /><br />LeoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
