True, but the extremely narrow focus might be a limiter. But you never know -
Kunich can bring "Liberals" into a thread almost at will, so perhaps Paultard can
manage to bring NASCAR into a few more.

What part of "I just love a bare-knuckle smashmouth usenet brawl" is
it that you don't understand? I honestly didn't expect my statement
"NASCAR drivers are wusses compared to bike racers" to be
controversial in a bike racing newsgroup, but since it is I might as
well take advantage of the opportunity.

rbr is a very serious newsgroup. Wankerz have their asses kicked at the
Sausalito Starbucks by a gang wearing LIVEDRUNK jerseys.

Presumably the LIVEDRUNK(tm) gang have their own hand signs, if only
they were sober enough to remember them.

My sincerest apologies, and for punishment I'll ride a short technical
crit filled with them, or at least the first 2 or 3 corners, after
which we'll just be in a big heap on the ground anyway.
Gotta make sure that I keep the tank topped up with the proper
Livedrunk Belgian fuel before posting, as is required.
sincerest regrets
Bill C
I'll get back to you to start the road rash treatment thread after
the crit.

You mistake my meaning. The post from Slave O' the State's that you
responded to is properly read as humorous and satirical. It spoofs
something of which you are unfamiliar.

Good luck with that. More NASCAR fans in here than I would have imagined
too.

I live near a dairy farm. The place milk comes from smells like ****.

And it also offers many opportunities for doping threads.
If the cops would ever raid the place they'd find a
fridge that would put any pro-cyclist's fridge to shame.
Except that its all likely legal.

I'm surprised sometimes that no pro racers live on farms.

Ah- thanks for the enlightenment. I don't dare patronize Starbucks for
other reasons- mainly I'd be ridiculed and ostracized by my peers and
I couldn't handle that. ;-) I should have included Starbucks on the
list of popular culture icons I'm not into. As with NASCAR, I don't
see the attraction given the superior alternatives. Look at the
desperation of Jason Jones during the Starbucks shutdown:

See? There are worse things than andouillette.

I got that- my coach, Ryan Cousineau filled me in. Well, it's a
twofer. Yea, though I amble thru the Starbucks of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil- other than the coffee.

We remember them: right hand up, index finger raised. Usually done right
after catching the eye of the barmaid.

Sometimes it's all we remember,

I'm your coach? Take kenacort.

(It's almost sad how much of this newsgroup's traffic consists of
grognard in-jokes endlessly repeated, but considering my own
contributions, I can hardly say I have done anything but reaped what I
have sown).
