You miss-read the story. The stewardesses beat you up, not beat you off.

Keep telling yourself that kid. And repeat, "the Spartan" moniker isn't Penske's way of reminding S. of the way they were.

Shifty means he's the one that invented riding slave bareback.

Speaking of flowing juices, the title of this thread reminded me of a very memorable (hi, TM!) conversation I had a few years ago while having a business dinner at Cashion's Eat Place in Adams Morgan. My companions were a man who would later become my boyfriend and a woman I had recently hired to replace me so I could go do something more interesting. Somehow the topic of threesomes came up -- I think her husband had hinted at wanting one -- and she said, "It would have to be all about me. There's no way I'm chowing box." She was quite pretty, with very naturally large breasts, but in many ways a selfish, greedy girl. As a result, "there's no way I'm chowing box" became a code between me and the boyfriend for selfish behavior.

Anyhoo, just a funny little connection in my brain I thought I'd share.
Are you calling me selfish?

I got them once (to see Shannon and Will fucking). Nothing interesting enough to get me to similarly splurge this year.

I only wish yesterday's stage or tomorrow's stage fell on Friday or Saturday, because they'd be ideal opportunities to knock back a few cold ones with the TdF drinking game.
Saw that, and enjoyed it too. Too bad there were also many "Fuck You Lance" and "EPO Lance" to be seen, but then hey, those probably motivate him.

You can pretty much make up your own rules, but I'm going with this version:

SIP Whenever:

* Phil or Paul refer to Jan Ullrich as a "great champion" or otherwise kiss his ass
* There's a mention of the former national champion of some country other than Luxembourg
* Anyone other than Ullrich is identified as having a "huge motor"
* You spot a spectator dressed as the devil
* The peleton "turns off the gas"
* There's a reference to Armstrong's cadence
* Every time there's a Cyclysm commercial
* A rider drags his "huge carcass" up a mountain
* Robbie McEwen goes off the back

DRINK Whenever:

* Paul refers to a rider's "suitcase of courage"
* Instead of reaching for the suitcase, a rider is in a "spot of bother" or is "suffering like a dog"
* Al Trautwig completely butchers some fact related to cycling or France
* Phil or Paul mention Servais Knaven driving on the front.
* There's a mention of the current national champion of some country other than Luxembourg
* Someone has chalked a visible profanity on the road
* There's an extreme closeup of Sheryl Crow

PUMP FAKE AND DON'T DRINK whenever:

* There's a mention of "Tricki" Beltran or Richard Virenque is referred to as "Tricky Ricky"

CHUG Whenever:

* A rider is mentioned as using a "monster" gear ("massive" gear also acceptable) -- warning, may cause extreme drunkenness on mountain stages
* There's a leadout for a finishing sprint
* The national champion of Luxembourg is spotted
* Someone confuses the Alps and the Pyrenees

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few, and it's not even due to a recent Schmengefest.

" Robbie McEwen goes off the back"

"There's a mention of 'Tricki' Beltran or Richard Virenque is referred to as 'Tricky Ricky'"

Excellent work, Dave. Bravo!

JERUSALEM - A young monkey at an Israeli zoo has started walking on its hind legs only after a near death experience.
Natasha, a 5-year-old black macaque at the Safari Park near Tel Aviv, began walking exclusively on her hind legs after a stomach ailment nearly killed her, zookeepers said.

Monkeys usually alternate between upright movement and walking on all fours.

Too many rules to remember. Can I just simplify it to:
* Drink whenever they show a bicycle.

Comments on yesterday's TT. Anyone else get the sense that Lance was just fucking with Basso's mind? He caught him easily enough, then appeared to hang around just in front of him for a while before pulling away easily again.

That, or Basso tried to hang for a little bit. I like how Lance didn't even look over...

That works. Or perhaps just pick a couple key words, like "pain", "bunch" or "Bobke".

Absolutely Lance was toying with Basso. He hung around through the time check and made a point of not looking at him. It might have been more effective if he'd pulled slightly ahead, held it, and then pulled away, but he's the man.


Tdf spoiler space














When will Ullrich attack today? He's already passed up the Madeleine.

How many team mates does he have left with him? The USPS team has all nine members, and they have been absolutely DOMINANT when it matters this year. I don't think that anyone high in the GC has the manpower to challenge them.
