Apparently this year's Giro will have a prize (and points) for fastest descent.  :wacko:

Ueli Steck will be tough to beat in this category.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

25 years ago today the Siege of Sarajevo began.

181 years ago today Anne Boleyn was arrested for capital inconvenience.

I had to order a new Ps4. The last one died valiantly when shoved off a shelf by vengeful children. Or an idiot housekeeper.

I've been thinking that while there are tons of songs performed by men that mention a chick by name, I can't think of a single chick song that mentions a dude by name.

Perhaps this is reflective of a deeper truth?  Perhaps dudes fall in love with individuals and chicks fall in love with types?

Oh, Micky, you're so fine.  You're so fine, you blow my mind.

Yeah, but it kinda dovetails into your premise;  it's bubblegum pop alright, but not really a love song.
