If you want to go to an actual college, Midwestern State University in Texas has a cycling scholarship, and much of their team is comprised of foreign students.

Don't know of anything around New Jersey though. I think there is a school in one of the Carolinas that also offers cycling scholarships.

to the high crime Newark and Camden war zones. It has its good and it certainly has its bad side.
Hey, the bicycling hall of fame is NJ, so it can't be all that bad...

He was making a joke. In American English, the word "institution" often carries the meaning of an asylum or prison. (I feel like I'm back teaching English As A Second Language!)

It is completely lazy, and reflects a severe lack of caring on the younger generations behalf. My daughters started to email using aol slang and made up wording, I quickly put a stop to it. It is not cute, it is not funny, and it is not in the least bit tolerable, I have no patience for people who write in that style. It dumbs down conversations, and it eventually will dumb down the person who constantly chooses to write that way. it is a small problem in the overall picture of life, but its all the small things that eventually add up and become bigger problems. There is whole slew of generation Y problems due to an overall lack of discipline, and strict parenting, which many have seemed to have strayed away from. On the whole, this younger generation is lazy, self absorbed and unmotivated compared to generations previous. Exceptions of course in every generation.
It is not a case of whether your "**** stinks or not" The issue is raising mindful, and respectful
children who turn out to be educated, responsible young adults. View it as you wish, spin it any way you may, the bottom line is respect and responsibility.

You completely neglect how much time it saves though! Yes, it may come at the cost of looking like a complete fool, but think of the valuable second I'm saving by not reaching over to that darn A or pesky E.

AOL'ese was around long before AOL ruled the fools. It is properly called chatroom shorthand and is very usefull for medium to slow typists trying to hold a conversation in a chat room. This however is not a chat room and neither is e-mail.

Specifically the section about disruption:

Disruption can include harassment, multiple user profiles, multiple posting of the same post and posting completely off topic messages. Please do your best when it comes to grammar, punctuation and spelling.

Apologies to those who deserve them (ie Joe and the Mod Squad and the rest of the people who can use proper English) and a giant ********** ********** ********* to the rest of you.

Your right in that respect shok, it is about the riding. But this is an opinion forum, is it not?
If someone chooses to post using improper grammar,
child-like language and an overall lack of caring of how they are perceived
then one, inevitably opens themselves to criticism.

Bikefourms? Criticism of my riding is fine and should keep everybody busy enough but to correct improper grammar of a 51 year old man is wrong,sorry. I'll leave it at that.
