With every intention of taking the Mrs. out for a mtb ride yesterday, the weather wasn’t having it. So, what to do but surf the web and read some news. Never hurts to learn, right? What’s been killing me lately is the lack of anything viable, or nary a feel-good story. Killings here, bombings there, [...]

One week. Then I go back to school. This break will not be long enough. I need months to get over this shit. I need a job. I need a paycheck. I need hopes, dreams and aspirations.
I’ll settle for LA Direct Models. Sites like that crack my shit [...]

This one showed up in my inbox recently. You’ve probably seen something a lot like it before. If you haven’t, well, lucky you. Lets start ‘09 out with a bang then, shall we?

No doubt, most of you out there have seen this little item about Jonathan Page missing a drug test post race after a recent outing. When reading the article, you see that, the Page’s have a ton of excuses about “why” Mr. Page missed his doping test after the race. He crashed. He didn’t finish [...]

I thought it was over after that three point embarrassment against the Redskins. Goodbye playoffs.
But there was still a long shot. A very long shot. I had to write notes on a piece of paper Sunday morning to keep it all straight. Tampa Bay has to lose at home [...]

What’s left of the Republican Party is tearing itself to pieces. And it is not pretty to watch. We are witnessing the end of an era. What will replace it has yet to be seen. Folks like Hannity and Limbaugh will fight tooth & nail as they battle to the [...]

Hey, listen –
Most folks know that when you ask someone for something, you have to give them something in return. It’s pretty fucking basic. Maybe it has to do in some way with the 3rd law of physics. I know, gutter punks think that because they eat from the dumpster, they don’t [...]

I spent far too long watching the tube tonight. Given that we only have about 12 or 16 accidental channels that happen to squeak in through our cable meant for internets, it was only fitting that I punished myself tonight with such great shows as Baby Daddy on the BLT network, where 248 tricks [...]

Goldman Sach’s pays 1% in taxes. This, after they accepted 10 billion in tax payer dollars for a so-called bailout. Their tax reduction is contributed to off Shore tax shelters.
Top it off with Taylor’s link in the comments about the IMF warning of economic unrest. Awesome. The IMF? That’s exactly not who I want to [...]

Gee. A month of no work to get the reigns again? Nice work. Overshoot, then undershoot. I got it.
Considering longevity, who in their right mind wants to work a 40 or a more typical 50-70 anyway? Seriously, how bout a more euro 32?
Then you can spend more time with your family, cultivating good work ethic [...]

In an ideal world, I’d never set foot in Absolute again. But, as it were, they are the local Specialized dealer and Specialized has a satisfaction guarantee on all their tires that nobody in their right mind should refuse. What can I say. I own a set, and I’m not satisfied. To make it hard, [...]

Imagine if professional cycling had a strong rider’s union in place like the NFL does for its players?

It brings many things. A better-developed palette for savoring various scotches and fine wines. It makes you appreciate fine food and all it’s intricacies.
It brings the knowledge that some people will bullshit you to get a laugh, while others will bullshit you to get your last dime and life’s blood and leave you dying in [...]

I made it back up the hill this morning after hanging with local friends in Kleenix just yesterday at the FOTP. In a word, the day was moist. The unusual November monsoon from the night previous, that brought hail the size of marbles to my parents house, provided epicness for the following days ride. With [...]
