So this is where many Davisians do their excercise. It near the building
I'm working in at UC Davis, I went for a bike ride today to check it
out. The pavement isn't the best, but I think it'll make a nice skate,
when I bring them to work:

Very pretty.

BTW, does "Archon" come from the classic game?  I used to play the original
game many years ago on my Commodore 64.  It was a great game; I haven't
played the remade version though.

Mark.

human upper body, and golden feather wings.

Yeah, but it's STILL the first thing most people who know what the word "puta"
means will think when they see it :-)  Any "Alien Nation" fans here?  Whenever
Detective Sikes was introduced to a Tenctonese person, that person would snort,
giggle or otherwise look somewhat amused because in their native language it
meant "excrement in the cranium" (aka "shithead") :-)
