I didn't think you were really from Ireland though. You're talking about Limerick, Ireland I'm assuming? Have you been to Kilkenny?

I've been to Galway, Mayo, Sligo, Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Kerry, Donegal, Leitrim, Offaly, Kildare, Tipperary, but never Kilkenny.

But you haven't been to Kilkenny? Well, you certainly haven't been to Ireland then

Do you live there and have you been to Clifden?

Totally random thought today. I wonder if I can legally change my name to Mr. Buldops.

i don't see why not. if you're of legal age to change your name, then you should be able to change to whatever the hell you want.

Awwww yeah, it's gonna get schwifty in here.

...I guess it's not a matter of "if I can" so much as "if I really should or is it just stupid?"

I'm reading about the Tour De France on its wiki page and skipped to the section on doping to find mention of Lance Armstrong. I think it's kind of cool that a fellow competitor who finished runner-up to Lance three times declined to make a claim to Lance's forfeited titles. Apparently Jan Ullrich who was Lance's biggest rival at the time, stated that he thought Lance should have all of his seven stripped titles reinstated due to the fact that so many people were doping at the time. Maybe there's a hidden agenda but it just seems kind of classy on Jan's part

voltz · 09-03-2017, 08:33 AM

With so many people doping, I wouldn't say there's much honor left in the sport. It is all about that advertisement and endorsement money, which I'm sure is difficult to make any claims on after all is said and done. Lance is set for life, birds for everyone!! * flip! flip!

lol I thought I remembered hearing something about the USPS trying to get endorsement money back from him. I liked him in Dodgeball and his scene with Vince. Sucks that he had to cheat and I certainly would never endorse cheating but I could see how one would justify it to themselves if it seemed like almost everyone was doing it.

voltz · 09-03-2017, 08:00 PM

Then that should mean among the cheaters, he's still the greatest cycling champion of all time.

Well yeah I suppose so. The only reason I thought to check out the tour was because I read about it in the paper (sports section) quite a few times while I was in jail. It sounded kind of interesting but I wasn't sure exactly how it worked. I guess it's like car racing where they got teams and each team has several competitors. I don't know how they could not get distracted by some of the amazing scenery they must see. Biking through the Alps? Yes please!

If you guys like doping and cyclists, watch Icarus on Netflix.

Scarriere · 09-04-2017, 04:15 AM

I'll be heading back to work in a couple of days and figured I'd check the weather forecast.
Next week the high will be 5C (41F), while here at home this week the highs will be 27C, 29C, 27C (80F, 84F, 80F) and nothing under 23C (73F).
Summer temps will gone when I get back and that makes me regret going back early.

lol yes I love doping and think that everyone should do it to fulfil their max potential in everything they do. Just imagine how many more teeth a dentist could clean each day if he started doping

I think I saw a trailer for the Lance Armstrong story and I thought it looked kind of interesting. I believe it was called The Program. I don't have Netflix but I might have to Google Icarus just to find out what it's about

How hard is it to grill a simple burger? Seriously if you can't cook for a crowd get the f*k away from the grill. Management at my workplace decided to treat us hourly employees to a burger cookout today for Labor Day, i walked past where they were serving and i swear i saw raw meat in the trays, how the f*k can anyone actually believe that's acceptable? Of course if we eat said crap and get sick/leave early we get written up . Ridiculous. That said I'm glad I don't eat lunch

damn....that's just....damn!

we have a couple cookouts a year where i work. and the guy who always does the cooking as excellent at it. nothing over- or under-cooked, everything is just right.

but yeah, seeing what amounts to raw meat would have me saying something; fear of getting written up or not.
