Nothing really monumental, just thought y'all would like to see.

16 of my 24 years were spent in Texas. Y'all can figure out the rest.

Don't get me wrong, I love Texas and all, but there's just no future for me there.

Just giving you grief -- I moved back here after a several year stint in VA. I do like living in TX, but it has its drawbacks. Not as many as some think, but definite drawbacks.

I was once told that "y'all" was singular, and "all y'all" was plural, i.e.
"y'all want a gel?" - this to your team leader (singular).
"all y'all want a round on me?" - this to all your domestiques after they drag you to a win (plural).
CSC's (and now Saxo Bank) jerseys seem about as safe as they get. Nothing remotely controversial.

Saxo is in Blue? Here come the Blue Cervelos and Blue Zipps then. Might match my team kit finally.

Yeah cheung, notice the CSC logo itself has changed too, that's throughout the entire company for a marketing "image" change going on in CSC. Don't exactly know why, but I got an email and briefing on it last week. Whatever. I liked their old kits with the wings, feathers, and abs theme. Better colors too.

Not much different from the 2008 kit. The kit design prior to the 2008 has to be one of the all time classics. I'm tempted to get one just to hang in the basement with the rest of my vintage collection.

Lotsa changes going on, the company HQ is changing to Falls Church now, from Cali. They're dropping the sponsorship and changing the logo. I've got a 2006 Jersey hanging in my office signed by JJ Haedo, Luke Roberts, and Scott Sunderland, and a frame pic of the other CSC guys including Bobby J hanging up. One of my best employee benefits is dwindling away...

Yeah, you and I talked about this before. When CSC first announced they were no longer going to sponsor the team, I had 4 people email me in an hour about it including you. Cracked me up. I guess I'll have to see if Saxo Bank is hiring.
