dumbass,

a few years ago (i think when he started with fassa) he did an
interview (it might been on daily peloton or one of those other sites
nobody reads) where he plainly stated he was done with doping, even if
it meant he wouldn't be a rock star anymore.

maybe it was a self fulfilling prophecy, but it's a bit harsh to rip on
vdb for lousy results when he all but comes out and says all those wins
he racked up before '99 were made possible by EPO.

I meant the word "vein" which is where the needle goes in (mainline)
or should it be "in vain"?:

You get better results if you train in vein than than if you train in
vain, or so I'm told.

Oddly enough I was listening to the last album Joe Strummer made before he
died in 2003 just the other day.

Anyway I would have thought you'd be listening to the Sex Pistols while
reading Sartre on your daily commute.

No, the problem is she reads the Sex Pistols and listens to Sartre.

Me, I read Usenet and listen to the voices in my head,
