Self-confidence, or self-belief, is a wonderful thing. It's also something the man affectionately nicknamed 'Tommeke' has in spades, but according to Boonen, the times he loses a bunch sprint is when he questions his own judgment.
"Every time I take the race in my own hands and take my own responsibility, I succeed; every time I look at another guy, I fail," he said. "The best example is Alessandro Petacchi: every time I lose, I say to myself: 'You dumbass!'

Chimay is proof of God's existence as is Bishop's Finger Kentish Ale.

Do they make it in a lite version?
I expect if Curtis was god you would now be receiving a thunderbolt from on high.
Define light - with triples, I think we can approve a standard Belgian at 8-9% alcohol content. If you are talking anything like an American Budweiser, fried by thunderbolt would be too kind. And far too quick. Maybe chained to a stone for eternity wiith his liver ripped out by an eagle on a daily basis. It's been done before...
Curtis L. Russell Odenton, MD (USA) Just someone on two wheels...

For the fellow dumbasses among us:
"Duvel [Belgian for devil but also a strong beer]"
Duvel is a Flemish dialect word for devil. Belgian is not even a language.

Chained to the front of a convenience store... the rest is too horrible. --D-y
I'm partial to the St. Bernadus 12 and the Achel trappist bruin extra.
If you like the belgians, check out beeradvocate.com. I've attended their Belgian Beer Fest event twice up at the Cyclorama in Boston. One table just had boxes of 25oz bottles from breweries that no one outside of Belgium has ever heard of.
