apparently grasshopper has snatched the pebble from the teacher's hand. (apologies to those who didn't have american television in the 70's for that "kung fu" starring david carradine reference.)
you have to especially like a. c.'s "timing" for the gift giving.
"The gesture could be interpreted as the ultimate nice-guy act (no hard feelings, sorry I wasn’t able to get these to you earlier), but also could be considered razor-sharp gamesmanship (I won — remember? —and, by the way, old guy, the clock is ticking)."

Sweet 70's reference! Thanks for reminding me that the clock has been ticking long enough for me to remember those episodes.

Bill Fotheringham picked up this story in yesterdays Guardian newspaper.
After giving the watches to the the former Astana Radio Shack riders, it was noted that none of them were seen wearing the watches as far as the author was aware.
