Nothing better than a great sense of humor.
You've gotten some good advice so far, nothing much to add, except invest in some good gear from the start. There isn't really "beginner gear". If you invest in good quality (not necessarily expensive) gear, it should last you for years. You'll probably want to change bikes before you "need" to buy new gear, as long as you don't go down in it.
