If I were Joerg, I'd be after steel belted tires. I'll settle for a flat once every couple years. (it actaully took half a block to go flat, I could hear something hitting the chain stay, but couldn't figure it out. The 'pssst' gave it away a few seconds later.) -- sig 64 |

I doubt you can get the same hops or the proprietary yeast -- to the extent that matters. You should skip the Clorox fest and go watch the Tour of California. Stages 5-7 are in your neighborhood. The Friday stage starts in Folsom. You should go and touch Peter Sagan. "Nyes, the legs, if they work, maybe it good, but you know?" I want to learn to interview like Peter! Some of the best Europros who decided to skip the Giro are there You can go talk German to the Germans. Shoot the sh** with Marcel Kittel. Ask him for hair care tips. -- Jay Beattie. |

On the other hand, if the tire (or the beer) didn't go flat, the mounting lions didn't mount, or the cows weren't frightened there wouldn't be anything to talk about. -- Cheers, John B. |
