Except the name itself.

Am I covering for Snidely Condescending when Not Bob isn't around?

In what sport did you receive a jimmy hat?

Let's just say by "sponsor" he means "the big dudes from Cell-block C".

I tailor the speed to the context and am that talented. I've looked down from the podium at distances from sprint to IM and in between. In fairness, your wife once told me that you were so fast you would finish before the warm up started.

You can now call me (as some wag recently did) Mrs. Al Unser, Jr.

I would say "Congratulations!", but aren't you supposed to say "Best wishes" to the bride, and "Congratulations" to the groom? Where's DS/BRC when we need her?

I'm just glad he got his sponsors to use jimmy caps. I'll bet that cost him.

I did the supermajority of my time in Danbury. The only need for jimmy hats was with the coeds from Wesconn who answered my Craigslist ads for conjugal visitors.
