The guy on the fixie rides with the TBN guys a lot, this was the first time I had met him.

You sir, are an inspiration to sexual deviants worldwide.

Edit: that was directed at gboy, Kaibot, you can be an inspiration to sexual deviants too if you like.
Edit^2: in highschool (#hax0rs519 days) our ansi group sign was "bood."

As I have just reeieved a miraculous cable hookup from out of nowhere, you can count on me to give you updates on the stages throughout the morning coverage. It really sucks to be able to watch it in the morning while I work. It's the least I can do.

You can get your live updates on the web site as well, that's what I do at work then I watch it at home in the evening.

p.s. Why would anyone want to be able to spell 'blood' with their fingers? Having lived in many hoods over the years the last thing i'd EVER want is someone mistaking my finger up my nose for some form of primitive communication. Having had the ETF take down Bloods across the street from my house( gas and guns ). If you ain't in the club don't learn the handshake. Then you can never to it in the wrong moment by accident.

No dis intended..... you are a nice lot, I can't see a banger in any of ya. Cept that Rob guy, he's trouble rep'in the Hill.

Since we have a few days till the start...perhaps a little pool is in order...everyone throws in $10...pick the yellow, green, polkadot and white and team. In case 2 pick the same winners, ties will be broken by the winning time's advantage over second place overall. Who's in?

There was one black guy at my highschool. I remember one time in creative writing class he did some acapella verse and everyone was like, "Oh wow, an authentic black person doing the rap!" Sheltered? Yes. Ironic use of pseudo gang signs by computer geek twits? Yes.

PS. Chemical Valley reprazent.

damn I was breakin' in crew in '82, winnin' competitions in MTL. My highschool was 85% black, yet not one shooting back then, and full on hiphop from day 1. Personally I never felt in any danger, but I suppose it's the environment you get used to.

Isn't that a death waiting to happen? I don't mind rolling through town, but I'm not gonna be perched on my bike out way past the nearest lightening rod out by the water. There's risky then there's stupid, and I think this crosses the line.

heh.. I think it would have to be posthumously awarded.

"A Darwin Award is a tongue-in-cheek honor given to people who purportedly improve the human gene pool by removing themselves following from an episode of questionable judgement. The prizes, named after pioneering evolutionary theorist Charles Darwin, are awarded over the Internet. There is no monetary prize, only (necessarily) posthumous recognition."
