    Outside Of Here

    The house I lived in when I lived in Portugal was made of brick, built by the family that I lived with. Other family members were building next door. The brick was covered by plaster. Very cold inside in the winter. Not easy to move walls or change as it is here in the states. The house ended up...

    The battles we never got to see

    Went to France to follow the race in 2010 hoping to see Alberto beat, embarrass Lance on a MTF. Never materialized. Would have been real sweet as was traveling with bunch of Lance fans. As someone else stated, an at their best sprint between Cipo, Ale Jet & Cav, just add no lead outs...

    The reasons

    Name comes a T-shirt and couple guys I rode with few years ago. If a guy fell back to the back of the group during the ride, one loud mouth always said they rode like girls! There were only two girls in the group. We weren't always in the back! We would point that out, but can't reason with...

    National Football League

    "Atlanta I have a vested interest in due to an avatar bet with FoxxyBrown1111. He took ATL to win 8 games, I said ATL would win 10. So far the Falcons are 5-3, and I think they have a good chance to win 5 more. But because of this bet I have to pick ATL. " Probably the only reason I look for...

    Conrad Murray found guilty

    Just heard that the Jackson family is filing lawsuit against AEG, for putting too much pressure on Michael. Really too much for me... First blame went to Conrad Murray. It was his fault, which I can slightly understand a jury deciding. I still find fault with the person who knowingly hires a...

    Penn St., Sandusky and Joe Paterno

    Local Los Angeles night news, showed Joe Pa talking from his living room window. He mumbled, as he spoke. Sounded like he said he or they didn't deserve this and something about say a prayer for the kids. Sportscaster also said now as many as 17 possible victims have come forward. A bit late to...

    National Football League

    Vick has only played in all 16 games once in his career. His passing percentage is ok with the Falcons, in the 50% range. Not upper level QB %. His interception rate was miserable. 14 TD and 12 INT. 15 TD and 13 INT. This year he has 11 TD and 9 INT. For most offenses that is trouble. Can't win...

    Penn St., Sandusky and Joe Paterno

    Can't see how Joe Pa survives. As long as he is there questions linger. As someone who was a teacher, who by law has reporting procedures for child abuse, I can't understand how A coach could do so little. How does he dismiss a child when you are around young men everyday as a coach? The...

    Not so much as a Tebow hater as a non-believer in his talent to be a starting QB in the NFL. If they build an offense for him, and run option plays, he won't make it thru seasons. If Denver gets better, they will start playing tougher schedules, meaning his major throwing flaws will be...

    Thought the Cowboy D was better. Thought they could get pressure on Vick and turn him into a runner. Wrong. Glad Tebow faced a good defense to show just how much help and learning he needs. Wish TV "experts" were as hard on him as they are on other quarterbacks. Kind of a teflon guy. His QB...

    I would be happy with that Super Bowl pick. If the 9ers are there they hopefully beat the Pack to get there!! (dislike is there even if Favre isn't)

    The Cat Thread

    This isn't as good as the posts by Krebs...but my cat got a birthday gift from the teenager who cat sits him when I am out of town. He of course looks overjoyed with the gift. The cat, Darlito the Wonder Kitty, is at least 20. I have had him 15 years. I got him from the street. An older lady...

    Would you help a stranded cyclist? (a poll)

    I learned after stopping on my bike once that boys don't like help with flats from girls on a pink bike! Even offered my pink floor pump that is in my car, not pink, at all times to I guy I was parked near on a popular bike road in Malibu. I was getting ready for a group ride that is a...

    National Football League

    The only one I had a question about were the Saints. As much as I like them, pretty scattered on offense. Defense is pretty weak. Barely beat the Panthers and lost to Tampa.
