I have had my ass kicked plenty of times, knifes and guns pulled on me. My best friend was navy seal, his name was Joe Franco from Livingston California. We used to kick the crap out of each other. I also trained another guy who was full contact fighter in Marines. I trained in Tae Kwon Do, kick boxing and chinese arts for about 12 years. I'm not that tuff, at least not in Fresno. I was second degree black, but i'm rusty now. I just don't deserve the constant crap from you and I reacted. Then have I got a guy you need to meet - he hangs out over on rec.skiing.alpine and it sounds like you two are made for each other. JP |

I am not up to the level of competition in my division since I dislocated both knees several times in matches. I took up cycling for rehab back in my 20's. We had plenty of black belts here to train with. I used to go Moores Karate quite a bit and spar with their instructors. It does bother me when people constantly go around trashing the same posters when they don't deserve it. I just speak out when they goat me into it. Pappy is probably the nicest guy in this group and he takes the most crap. Why is that? I don't know but I do speak out from time to time. B- |

Seems like there is a gauntlet, usually you or Henry. Why don't you two guys look into seeing if usenet would change the rules for RBR and then you guys could decide who enters or leaves RBR. Moderator, you and Henry can take turns. I mean really, what is the problem Carl? I don't go around trashing you like some do to Pappy. I happen to think Pappy is cool, he takes a lot of heat but he is never uncivil. Sorry Carl if I rubbed you the wrong way, I never meant to. B- Over the past year, I've called you a name butcher, long-winded, and a stalker. If you consider that constant, I can't help that. Unintentional or not, you can't deny the name butchering: http://tinyurl.com/hjg6 Here are some of your discussions about Leontien Zijlaard-Van Moorsel (whose name you *never* butcher) http://tinyurl.com/hjfk http://tinyurl.com/hjfr http://tinyurl.com/hjfq IIRC, it was also said that you had been inquiring on a speed skating newsgroup how to contact her, but Google doesn't bring up anything. BTW, someone (not Henry) emailed me regarding an earlier time when I called you a stalker and said that your mpg videos 'were creepy'. Carl B. Johnston stalker |

Question about Race Tradition
Actually, last year we saw an attack on the yellow jersey on the
champs elysees. By Rumsas ("My mother (-in-law) does more dope than I do") but he broke more rules than just some taditions, it seems. Anyway, if the top three are still separated by less than 15 secs before the last stage, I guess we will see some action. Flat stage or not. But if the difference is bigger (as usual) the GC contenteder will prefer to say that they stick to the tradition, because it sounds a lot nicer to say than "I don't have a chance to win"! And now I have a completely different question for the cycling history geeks: What traditions and rules were introduced in the Tour that were later used in almost every cyling race? Some examples on top of my head: - Was the Tour the first stage race? Or was it just the first national tour? - Leader's Jersey - Special classifications: points, KOM, young, team, etc - Special jerseys for the above - Flamme rouge (?) - 1km crash rule (?) - The last stage tradition mentionned above - Mountain top finishes (?) - Live TV / TV motos / TV copters (?) - ITTs ? TTTs ? - doping controls? - Trade Teams (??) - Teams of 9 - the publicity caravan - the prologue - criterium-type circuit finish - "neutral" mechanical support - team cars - feed zones - Wildcards :-) - ... I have seen all the statistics in which year was the first ITT, the first KOM jersey and such IN THE TOUR, but I am wondering if it was the Tour that introduced all these things or did the tour organizers copy also some stuff from other races? |

... Over the past year, I've called you a name butcher, long-winded, and a stalker. If you consider that constant, I can't help that. Not constant but why the sudden outburst now? Unintentional or not, you can't deny the name butchering: No more then many who mispell a name or miss a letter. It's quite common and when you are distracted or in a hurry, it happens but rarely does anyone make a federal case out of it. http://tinyurl.com/hjg6 Here are some of your discussions about Leontien Zijlaard-Van Moorsel (whose name you *never* butcher) http://tinyurl.com/hjfk http://tinyurl.com/hjfr http://tinyurl.com/hjfq IIRC, it was also said that you had been inquiring on a speed skating newsgroup how to contact her, but Google doesn't bring up anything. That's wrong or is someone else. I am not the only one with that name. Johnson is extremely common. Johnston is less common. I have never inquired into a speed skating newsgroup. Why would you want to seach for that stuff anyway? BTW, someone (not Henry) emailed me regarding an earlier time when I called you a stalker and said that your mpg videos 'were creepy'. Not at all, everyone has an opinion. I put together a clip one time in a swf that was a slideshow project I did in Photoshop class. All it was were a bunch of LZ pics with some Enya music background. Nothing weird about it. They know me quite well at Farm Frites and they agreed to an interview here if they ever come to the US. I know a sports journalist who wants that interview. I sent them some videos from years ago of LZ at the games in Spain. They had never seen the coverage that was covered here in the US. They returned the favor by sending me some stuff. Carl B. Johnston stalker Drop the stalker stuff Carl, it's getting old and it's charcater assassination on your part. I don't go around chanting that you are an old lame washed up Ex-Pro with a chip on his shoulders. Who said that? Nobody, and I don't like the insults either coming from you. Chill a little... Don't stir up trouble. B- |
