Why are there so many coarse women on the cycling newsgroups?

Alright, I'll continue myself. Please feel free to jump in, however.

The troll, who had at one time been a more timid troll, expanded his evil
influence to many villages in the land of Altrec. While the people of the
village would taunt him, their efforts only seemed to make him grow
stronger. He seemed to be immune to even the strongest magic. Many a brave
knight was sent to his (or in some case her) metaphorical demise by the evil
troll.

The troll, meanwhile, could not understand why the people of Altrec
continued to think of him as a troll. "A troll", he said, "is someone who
drinks Gin and I only drink the purest fluids of the grape." But the good
folk of Altrec did maintain that if it looks like a troll, walks like a
troll, and most importantly, leaves messages like a troll, then it must be a
troll.

"But I'm not a troll", the evil troll asserted, "I am really a great saint
who is misundererstimated (a reference to George W. Bush for you
international folk)"

The good folk of Altrec were not fooled, however. Some of them (your humble
author included) were always willing to kiss a frog in hopes of finding
something royal. But the troll, when kissed, merely spat venom. This was
viewed by very few as saintly behavior.

Colin, the English are almost as stupid as the Australians. I feel I would
be remiss if I did not include the lot of you in my general reports on the
state of the cycling newsgroups.

These messages of mine will only appear about once a week or so. You should
relax and enjoy them. Who else is talking about the cycling newsgroups in a
general sort of way and passing judgment on them except yours truly, the
Great Ed Dolan.

The above remark is a perfect example of coarseness in a woman. She is
Canadian and not Australian, but there is not much difference between the
two types. It is just a question of who can be more vulgar, some broad from
the New World or some broad from Down Under.

By the way, Steve Martin only does one kind of comedy, that of the jerk. He
reminds me of Jerry Lewis who was also supremely unfunny, unless of course
you like jerks.

It would seem then that jerks have their fans so there's still hope for
you, Ed. Don't give up your day job though until you start to amuse and
entertain people other than yourself.

Someone who thinks Steve Martin and Jerry Lewis were funny? Surely they were
far more pathetic than they ever were funny! I think it is only 12 year old
kids who laugh at those two jerks.

Is this poorly written satire or are you really such a dolt? Something
is certainly too small in your case, it might be your brain.

You're nothing if not unhumble.

Before Ed corrects me, I meant ... tenaciously.

Ah, vive le difference!

As for quotes:

"I'm a honky-tonk man
and I can't seem to stop.
I luvs to give the girls a whirl
to the music of an ol' juke box.

But when the money's all gone,
I'm on the telephone,
a-hollerin': hey-hey, momma,
kin yer daddy come home."
-- Johnny Horton

I'd shake a leg with ya if you wuz
here or I wuz there, and you were
willing to shake a leg w/ me to a
good ol' tune.

"Everybody's dooo-oooing a brand new dance, now,
(come on, come on, do The Locomotion ...)"


cheers,
Tom

Moreover, the kind of women who show up for group bike tours are almost
without exception extremely vulgar types. It is as if they are competing
with one another to see who can be the most vulgar. Some even resort to
mouthing obscenities as bad as any man. Such types are beneath contempt of
course and deserve exactly the kind of men they get. Needless to say, I am
above and beyond them as they are unworthy of so grand a personage as
myself.
