Sorry, thought we were talking about RLJing.

^^^No, no I enjoy it a lot. It's still more believable than House of Cards though that has taken an interesting bisexual turn recently. By series three I expect them to be fucking pigs.

definitely not up there with the best of the best... but it is a damn fine show.
Nah, it;'s cobblers. Survival of the telegenic. Only children who have appeared in a washing-up commercial will be spared.
The key to survival is never learning from your mistakes. So, "it's behind you!" never sinks in. You can have a bad hair day but tv-bad, not real life post-zombie-apocalypse bad. If you are called upon to smile, don't worry, the dentistry is somehow taking care of itself. You don't need to worry about losing weight because you were a size 8 to start with, no one will notice.
If it's really important and urgent that you get out of a situation right away, be sure to spend a few minutes talking about really important stuff. Nothing helps resolve father-son issues better than putting yourself in more danger.
Getting separated from your group is almost always fatal so make sure one of you does it in every episode. Remember, you must never, ever learn from experience.
Don't worry about Rick - whatever it is he just mumbled will lead you in to disaster but he will be ok. -
What's the point of designing courses with different terrain and disciplines if the riders' natural different abilities are evened out by doping? It produces boring racing, false victors and an unfair advantage for people who respond well to doping and/or are willing to risk higher and higher haematocrits or the use of untested but effective drugs.
I doubt that Marcel Kittel or Taylor Phinney either adore or despise Pantani but I am sure they don't look at him with admiration either. -
No, they did something that didnt effect YOUR life in the slightest.
BUT, did they not entertane you? Did they not inspire you? Did they not get you out on your bike?
Well, either they did affect you or they didn't, make up your mind.
Nothing anyone does in sport is all that important. Was racing in the 90s really more inspiring and entertaining than in the 80s or than it is now? I'd say it was a lot less of both. People choose to see Pantani attacking and making the race 'exciting' but then turn their eyes away from his ridiculous time trialling which made the overall competition a lot less exciting because the stakes were lowered so far.
Pantani was no better or worse than any other doper. The reasons he died, or Jimenez died, or Vandenbroucke died, while others just like them are still around, are down to their personalities and fragilities. I liked Pantani, as a person, at the time even as his performances were blatantly drug induced. The person and the rider can be separated though. -
Really? Fuck me, it's amazing that people still believe that. Look at Pantani's time trial results - you imagine they would have been anything like that without drugs? He'd have been nowhere near the top 3 overall. Roberto Heras - another 'exciting', 'natural' climber - was only one second off fucking winning a TT in the Vuelta. As for Armstrong - notice anything about his Tour results before and after he started blood doping?
I understand that it's hard for people to admit the truth about their childhood heroes but sadly Father Christmas isn't real and the tooth fairy never existed. -
. His mum reckons he was ready to tell all.
.Well, if his mum says so it must be true.
"Yes, he was flawed, but I genuinely believe that he had a huge natural gift for climbing, exactly the right psychological attitude". You can believe all you want, because that is all you have. Have a look at this:

In the email, Mrs Brooks said Mr Blair had urged her to set up a "Hutton style" inquiry - a reference to the inquiry into the death of government weapons adviser Dr David Kelly.
He's got some chutzpah.

Yes it is grim. But it is not 100,000 dead, mass rape and torture (including of children), chemical weapons, the threat of starvation, the flattening of large areas of towns and cities, etc etc. The two are not comparable.
