OT: Lance has, apparently, a date with GW Bush on Saturday - he's taking
the Pesident out on a bike ride.

Is Lance aware that Bush has difficulty keeping upright on a bike?

The pig got up, and slowly walked away".

The version I know, from "Verse And Worse" pub. Faber, via imperfect
memory:

'Twas an evening in September, as I very well remember,
I was walking down the street in drunken pride.
But my knees were all aflutter, and I landed in the gutter;
And a pig came up and lay down by my side.

As I lay there in the gutter, thinking thoughts I could not utter,
I heard a passing colleen softly say:
"You can tell a man who boozes from the company he chooses - "
And at that the pig got up and walked away.
