Wow, I think I've found my callin' Pete and Fubar! Of course, I thought my other career would be behind some coffee bar, since I practically need an IV for my coffee!

Hey, does that mean, I've got to sign up for beauty school now?? Of course, I'll just end up ditchin' the "perm" and "color" class, and end up a "beauty school dropout".

Cool!!! can I be a drop out too?

We aughta start some kinda cyclist hair style. You know what I mean? Punks spike their hair, wierdo's have long hair, and rappers dye their hair. So what do cyclists do? A fad could come of this thead..

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd prefer a hairstyle that has significant amounts of grey in it. That way I'm already in the groove.

c~
(I'd rather it turn grey than turn loose...)

Yeah, I suppose, I'll have to watch out with the razor's Pete. Don't worry, I won't cut y'all--MUCH!

Hey, if anything if I do cut 'ya, i'll charge 'ya half-price! BAHHHHAAA! (SpongeBob Laugh there...)

Sure, Fubar, you can be a "beauty school drop out" like me...we can hang out at the assistant's cappucino/beverage class. That IS a requirement you know...

yeah, Fubar and Hogwild, official biker's haircut? I suppose it would have to be something suitable for "Helmet" Hair.

I haven't had my head shaved yet--don't think that's gonna happen, but I agree with SPIKES!!


Sorry, Buddy, i'm kinda dense in bike lingo--what's "M.giove"?


As far as what I do 24/7, hmm...it's gotta be either running/riding/ feeding my addiction to this darn forum!!! Oh yeah, forgot I do this thing called work, too.

Oh, yeah, "work!" That's right, thanks for reminding me, Technogirl. I almost forgot!

Hey, Buddy, nope I'm definitely not Missy, coz I don't have the vicious fish around my neck, nor the cool MTB!

Although, I've been told by my best friend (my hubby-- yeah, it's true, who else would I argue with?) that I do offend sometimes after I've done a hard ride from the grocery store.

My family does spend time with me (I'm a busy kinda slacker girl), so that keeps me busy as well.

I wish I could drink and hang out the coffee bar 24/7, but you know, I get kinda jittery after dinner, and I can't sleep--so now I limit myself to a cup in the morning and maybe late in the afternoon. Well, you know, I started that addiction in college when they used to offer tons-o-free coffee during finals week.

My helmet hair makes a nice statement. The ridges in my helmet give what little hair I have kind of a Mohawk effect. I kind of like it, but Rainbabe makes me comb it out before going out in public. She also hates when I walk around in my road shoes. Those big Look cleats make a nice cloppy sound, like a horsey.

Hey, a dead fish around the neck sounds like a possible solution to the odor thing we were talking about.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, Rainman...just ANOTHER reason for people to avoid me!

BTW, I like the sound of the clip-clop bike shoes--am I more crazy or what? Okay, don't answer that one...

Servus Rainman,

I feel your pain, brother! I am forbidden to wear my shoes in the house and my wife really gets grouchy when I insist on wearing my beat up old sunhat in public when we stop at a café. Helmet hair is the greatest! I actually sprayed hair spray into it for halloween befor heading to the pub for the party. No one could guess how I did it...

As for the dead fish, mojo is one of the most important safety features I wear. Forgot to put it on, offended the gods, and was spit head-frist into a mud puddle about 3 meters deep for my hubris.
