Well, you have to know the movie to get it. End will be the same. :D

And Lance has some high explosive stuff with him. No PEDs or furniture.

Apparently , in Germany Convoy is to movies, what Hasselhoff is to music...

Well, in you case, I would say that you have to know AND understand the movie, and then spend another month to get my very sophisticated comparison/metaphor.
If there is enough RAM left, just free your mind and let it roll. It's nothing for the ordinary people, you know.
I loved Convoy when I was a boy. At this point, I wanted to become a trucker. But not in USA. Crazy Sheriffs there.

About Mr.Hasselhoff, he loves the Germans and has some roots here, but is more associated with Knight Rider.
He even bought some ground and a villa not too long ago.
His music, well, everyone around the world with 1-2 ‰ would love it.

btw, If I had to describe you (in the Matrix) by help of a picture, it would look like this

I'm not sure if that was supposed to be insulting or funny, but it fails at both. Keep working at it though.

Perhaps it's a mixture of both.
I figured, in the offseason, you guys share your work, based on a rotatory-plan and daily changes.
Very clever. Next one please. Looking forward to tomorrow. It's like opening those little doors at a Advendskalender.
That reminds me of giving Hugh a little hug for yesterdays work. Hug. And also hug for Timmey the day before. Hug.


btw, @all, any new pieces on our Lance ? All this offtopic is getting boring. Even for the mods.

"Every dollar saved is a dollar for the mission"
"says the company's legal budget exceeds $1 million a year" whoa....WoW:eek:

"We want to be transparent with everything we want to do, because they [donors] are trusting our donations to go to . . . our mission," she says. Ofcourse it is transparent.

Patel says Armstrong is chairman of the board of Livestrong and she sees him at board meetings. He is a "really generous man," she adds. We all knew he was really generous already,,,, just like he said before ...doing it for the cancer fighters out there.

Every dollar saved is another dollar that we can use for parties, travel, and gifts for our most loyal groupies

Look at the date of the article.

BTW, I have a sore throat, some inflammation. Couldn't take the risk of puking (have gone years without it, and happily so), so I decided to not read more than a few lines.

You know you have a great charity when your legal costs need 7 digits to be written down, in any currency. That's a lot of lost awareness right there.

It just so happens he thinks he's the only one fighting cancer;)

Hence the need for a jet to reach The Unaware.

Show me someone Unaware, and I will show you an illiterate.

Yes, 2005.
And something said back then almost 7 years ago still rings true today:

2005 said:
Finally, the last thing I’ll say to the people who don’t believe in cycling, the cynics and the sceptics: I'm sorry for you. I’m sorry that you can’t dream big. I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles. But this is one hell of a race. This is a great sporting event and you should stand around and believe it — this is a hard sporting event and hard work wins it. So Vive le Tour forever!

C'mon guys and gals - it is time to BELIEVE.
I know these things take time, but 7 years c'mon.
Its time.
Believe.
2012 Tour will be awesome.
Vive le Tour forever!

Fabiani must have pulled a few strings to get the pr interview so the "message" can be published and be re-iterated from another source when the Foundation is under assault about its dealings.

"Patel says 81 cents of each dollar raised go to cancer programs"

"...she cut the nonprofit's legal costs by half,"

"Also, Patel says, she is involved in four board meetings a year, and she recently put together an extensive handbook for the board in her effort to make the nonprofit's corporate governance "very transparent.""

Livestrong's cancer program of awareness rather than cancer research donations opens up for inclusion in the 81 cents in the dollar of costs that would be excluded by research based foundations. Deception.

Livestrong should have a drastically reduced legal expenditures for trademark protection. The beneficial holder of the "Livestrong" brand is Demand Media as they acquired the exclusive world wide licensing rights in January 2008 for $3,475,000.

Corporate governance must have been previously non existent if Livestrong paid out $2m in research donations ("awareness"?) in 2005/2006 to recipients who assisted LA in his SCA case. IRS examines closely corporate governance compliance for distribution of charitable funds.

All truth passes through three stages:

First it is ridiculed.
Second it is violently opposed.
And third it is accepted as self-evident.

And nonsense passes through the first two stages!
The Hog: Stage 2.
