Wait! Greatest hits of the 80s?! Is that included in my order, or do I have to order more AV gear to get that fabulous deal?

Hey! The cute guy from match called me back! I say cute...his pictures are cute. He has one that looks like him now, and one that looks like him 20 years ago. What's that about? He's a professional photographer. I had called the number for his studio instead of his cell number. At 10:30 he checked his messages at the studio to see if I'd called there. Wow. A guy waiting by the phone for *me*

Had a fun talk with him.

WHY two at once? The other guy seems cool, too, and the fact of him being in recovery could be a plus or a minus...oh, man, not enough info, yet trying to analyse. Trust the universe. It beats the "too many strange guys at once" phenomenon.

Just when I think I can't stand it anymore and don't ever want to meet any new guy ever again. OK, more will be revealed.

Q? I haven't heard that name in forever. One of the best characters ever on serial TV.

Sarah .... oh Sarah..... Are you awake and heading to the gym????? I hope you had better luck than I did! I was lucky to get out of bed in time to get to work!

Sending you motivational exercising thoughts ....

No- I always drink them except for the two that were rotten- those I poured out. I kind of look forward to wine leftover night, when I finish off all the remnants of the past few days rather than opening a new bottle. I was just thinking the other day, though, that leftovers would be good to cook with. Except I rarely cook anything- it's either frozen or grilled.

Thanks for the thought, but more like insomnia which is fine as I'm getting some work done early so I can head down to the LBS. I'm doing volunteer time so they'll get my bike work done today. Who knows what I'll be doing -- as long as it isn't cleaning toilets. Interval training again tonight and I need my bike with the aero setup.

We were watching a ST-TNG episode last night (my daughter likes it already) that was a Q episode! Now that's a wierd coincidence. Q on TV...Q here... hmmm

Lise - that is too cool that you have a connection to Q. Good luck with the guy(s). When's the date(s)??? Supercool that he checked his studio messages to see if you called!
MP - I love the signature line! And - what did you do on BJ???

No date yet, but a nice talk. I'll give the other guy a call today. This stuff is hard--all of you with DHs or DPs or whatever--go give 'em a kiss! Go on! I'll wait here! Don't tell 'em why, just a big ol' smack on the lips, and come back to the computer... hold music playing...isn't that nice? Don't you just love him/her?

My connection to "Q" is soooo tangential...

...but fun to have one at all, right?

And yes, MP, we all want to know what happened on BJ. I am too slothful to go read up on it myself over there. Or, more to the point, I can't even keep up with the TE posts.

Off to work, hi-ho!

We were probably watching the same episode. My daughter loves it, too!!

Basically, on BJ, SK mentioned an interest in the fact that Jonathan Boyer, first ever American in the Tour de France (also won RAAM in 1985) is riding RAAM this year. So I mentioned in a reply the heated debate going on on a Ultra cycling email list I belong to about Boyer - he was convicted of child molestation. I didn't really get into specifics, nor did SK BUT one of the Cyclonauts asked slantz the BJ administrator to remove all references to Boyer from the thread. So SK and I were a little bent about that. I mean we didn't get into huge specifics, and it's not like we totally hijacked the thread - we really didn't. Just a couple of emails about facts dealing with Boyer. It's not like we were taking a position on child molestation or anything (DUH), but the facts are the facts.

**maillotpois** · 06-14-2006, 08:27 AM

And I'd previously had an email censored (nicely) by Slantz - I'd made some reference to one friend of mine "kicking everyone's @sses" in mileage and was told that inferred profanity was not okay. I really hadn't meant anything by it. I guess my time at the DA's office comes out every once in a while. They have a low threshold for profanity. Which is entirely their prerogative since it's their site - but we were a little miffed yesterday that if one person asked for non-offensive posts to be removed that they would do it.

**SadieKate** · 06-14-2006, 08:40 AM

Yeah, my post was horribly offensive.

It essentially said that if you're acquitted (at the time I didn't know Boyer had been convicted) that one should be allowed to participate. Fer crying out loud, I thought this was America and once you had been found innocent you were allowed to resume your normal life or if not once you had paid your debt to society you were done with it. Somehow this was considered a negative in the thread. So maybe I did take a position - that the laws are the laws and they are what makes the USA a good place to live.

Nobody said anything pro or con about the facts of the case or Boyer's character.

AARGH. You were not quite loud enough.

**DrBee** · 06-14-2006, 08:19 AM

Tomorrow - I will do better

Still nothing on what you did on BJ? Come on - give us a hint...

**Trek420** · 06-14-2006, 04:52 AM

Lise "Wait! Greatest hits of the 80s?! Is that included in my order, or do I have to order more AV gear to get that fabulous deal?"

Isn't today the last day? Let the whining begin.

"WHY two at once? The other guy seems cool, too"

One of them is the back up offer? Oh wait, never mind, you're not buying a house

Nanci, grilled stuff could be real nice marinated in that wine.

MP, whadja do THIS time? I looked briefly but didn't see any closed threads
