...wasn't until this point that I realized that the spare was closer in size to Harvard dining hall bagels than to the other tires. It looked like it belonged on a bike....a very small bike. What could I do? I put the spare on mounting, then searched around in the gravel for the bolts that I hadn't been smart enough to put somewhere safe, and finally I had tightened all of the bolts again.

Typically, Grover's sessions with Jordan began with a light warm-up--jumping rope, pedaling a stationary bike--to get blood flowing freely to muscles. Jordan then worked through a series of stretches that engaged each of the major muscle groups, from the feet to the neck and out to the fingers, in just 10 minutes.

...smart mix of wisdom and adolescence. Over the last several years, Murray has carved a nice niche for himself with meaty supporting roles (Kingpin, Wild Things), and he continues the tradition with Rushmore. Whether stuffing a little kid on a playground basketball court or running over Max's bike and carrying it nonchalantly back to the bike rack, Murray is perfectly tuned into the essence of Herman Blume.
