Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

That's not quite the entertainment I was looking for. I certainly hope you weren't suggesting that I could earn some extra cash. I might have to take offense to the implication.

There's nothing wrong with going to the "ballet". Even as a woman. We can all be patrons of the arts in our own little ways....

....like $1 and $5 at a time (or $20 depending on where you are).

C'mon, Grumpy. You rode your bike while playing the tuba. You have to have some ideas.

Oh....and they don't like it when you have cameras in those places....even if yours will hide their identities by reversing their image....

That's because my day job IS playing the tuba while riding the bike....well, no, it isn't, but it does involve a lot of blowing into pipes.

Is this a trick question?

I am a patron of the arts. Someone has to pay for all those Macs those artists buy.

If you do decide to go all I can say is steer clear of the foreign girls if you have to stop by the ATM. Foreign as in Eastern European. They are there to earn money and don't seem to care about "rules". Ta ta for now.
