I am having second thoughts, that title sounds like an episode of Stargate. It actually refers to the sweeping of Hamline Avenue, which has now occurred. There was a powerful amount of dirt and road trash which means that we still need a good rain storm to rid the street of a patina of dust, but at least the main clean up has occurred.
The clean up and today's light variable, mostly from the West breezes allowed me to ride my good bike out to the north. I cheated the wind today. It was West slightly South when I started out but the prediction was for it to shift around to the North by tonight. I took a chance and rode out with a tail wind and got enough of a shift to ride back with a tail wind.
It was sunny and warm, a day when even golf was being played, unexpected for March 31.It appears that Unk from "Sirens of Titan" has checked in in the comments section. Except that isn't his real name of course. If I recall correctly, and that's a pretty big assumption, his real name is Winston Niles Rumfoord. Unk shares this dual identity distinction with the author of the comment, that's not his real name either.
Bicycle geek note: a new record for most miles ever ridden in the month of March.

Golfing? "Look at the birdie" seems appropriate, since we're doing Vonnegut this week.
Congrats on the record mileage. You're still on your first year or retirement, so be careful not to set the bar too high. An early spring helped, too. Still, an excellent result.
Seconding the congratulations for early season mileage.
Also, a suggestion. Since you already have id'd the concept, you should write the screenplay based on life experience as a time rider:
SG-3: Stargate Hamline
[from wikipedia a "chronosynclastic infundibulum" is a kind of wormhole through time and space, defined as "where all the different kinds of truths fit together"]
