Let me think about this as I wipe the milk off my monitor.

I actually had some Don Knotts themes running through my head just a few minutes ago. It certainly would be better than posting an out-of-context quote into my signature - which really doesn't rank too high on the clever meter.

Which reminds me - EURO - are you a journalist? You seem like such a natural.

Rad it's obvious he didn't get the sarcasm in your post. But I'm sure he goes to bed at night with the thought that he has, in some small way, humbled you. ;)

Still don't get why you people think I'm anything to do with this Ben Cousin guy from the Wheelers.

I'm not affiliated with any London club. I'm a private BCF member.

P.S. Thanks for keeping the thread open despite my absence. Makes me feel very special.

So what you just happen to have the EXACT same bike and use his photos and claim them to be yours?

Ok I was sitting this one out but you just lost all credibility in my book too. :rolleyes:

It's Ben Cousins

Hmm, maybe you're not him. Surely you wouldn't misspell your own name ...?

Unless *gasp* you did it deliberately in an attempt to make us think you're not him. Oh, the deviousness!!

blandin 02-16-06 08:31 AM

It would seem to me that all Euro's detailed ranting in this thread about how 17th is actually 5th or 6th based on mixed cat races after Ben Cousin's results were posted removes any doubt and negates his current weak kneed protest.

rufvelo 02-16-06 08:32 AM

That Cyfac's a pretty fine bicycle. Ben may have borrowed it, but that mug? :)

EURO 02-16-06 11:46 AM

Did a quick search for Ben Cousins on the BCF website. He seems to be doing pretty well.

Maybe he'll hit the top 1000 before I do?

531Aussie 02-16-06 11:51 AM

odd, odd, odd

This thread is so entertaining.

It's like a congressional hearing for a supreme court nominee. The deeper we dig, the more we seem to know, the more the nominee obfuscates.

Jolly good fun! Pass the heavily salted snack treats and buttered popcorn!!

MacMan 02-16-06 12:45 PM

I'm diggin iamtim's mad Photoshop skillz! You open for contract work? lol!

I don't really give a rats crap who EURO is, I think he's nae so bad - bit of a nut job, but then you've got all manner of freaks here. Plus the Cyfac is a killer bike.

Heh. Don't. Photoshop pw3nd me. EURO provided the whited-out image, another poster provided the full image; it was an easy job to crop them to match, but spending 45 FREAKIN' MINUTES fussing with ImageReady to make a stupid animated GIF was a pain in my rear-end.

Certainly a larger chunk of time than I EVER thought I'd devote to EURO. But once I started, it was personal and I couldn't let the software designers at Adobe get the best of me. :-)

BeeTL 02-16-06 12:56 PM

Nope.

Definitely not the same guy...

It's probably just a coincidence that Ben Cousins last post was on 9/18/05 and Euro joined on 9/23/05.

I really just wanted to be able to say I posted in the Death of EURO thread, that will no doubt be legendary in BF history.

Besides, you would be surprized how much publicity this thread has gotten in Iceland. You could say it's a slow newz day ;) Got a screenshot of the national rag when the story was still fresh:
