I hate it when reality upstages a joke of mine!

(But not all bad for me: Kevin Drum, one of my favorite liberal bloggers, even though I am currently not reading political blogs because I just need a nice long break, re-tweeted me on this. That's cool, especially since he's never linked my blog!)

I would put my fat ass back on the bike if I could win a TRIDENT. That is amazing.
