We are busy searching for a bar to spend the evening at on saturday watching the tour. Unfortunately conversations tend to be like this:

Us: "Excuse me, but do you happen to carry the channel Versus?"
Waitress: [blank look] "Versus? Uhmm what is that?"
Us: "Well it's this channel, used to be OLN/Outdoor Life Network..."
Waitress: "No, uh, I think we only get like special sporting events on pay per view, what do you want to watch on that?"
Us: "Well, the Tour de France is on now"
Waitress: "Tour de whuuuh?"
Us: "You know, skinny men on bikes? The things with two wheels, no motors?"

Sigh. And the versus videos won't load on my computer at work, I'll have to try and get them to work this evening once I'm home. I did content myself with reading the play-by-play on the website.
