The forum remains open to most. You could try putting half the forum on ignore. I couldn't be arsed myself. This could be a nice race even if Vingo wins but doesn't do the six million dollar man stuff.

Milan San Remo has been one of the great loves of my life. What now my love? Now that you're gone. I'd be a fool to go on and on.

All of these. We are all winners today. Of course, cycling was the main winner today. Tomorrow, it will be pickle ball.

Yes for part (a) No for part (b)

He leaves behind a greater forum than the one he created.
