Ethics Question 23.01 v 1.2

You've just won Paris Roubaix for the second time. You have near god-like status in your country. Is it OK to celebrate by snorting Peruvian Party Powder out of the navel of a world weary 16 year-old Eurotrash model/actress at some off the hook nightclub, or should you go home, give your mom the trophy, share a soda with pops and go to bed early because you're going to do a 4 hour recovery ride the next day?

Glad you waited for v1.2

Are you kidding me? When I was Boonen's age I acted like him and I had never won a bike race, much less Paris-Roubaix X 2. He's got plenty of time to grow up. Or not.

I can say that if I were in Tommeke's position I'd do the same thing.

And I'm not ashamed in the least.

In my case this isn't an ethics question, it's fantasy island!

Boss, the coke, pass the coke!

Considering my luck with women, the best I could muster would be a Marion Barry.
