Default Yellow Power

Go, Lance, go.

I've been a Lance Armstrong fan for awhile. I'm not sure which is more tedious. Watching a golf tournament or a bicycle race. I do both.

My wife and I used to ride our road and hybrid bikes 50-100 miles per week. Not competitive, just recreational. My wife died of kidney cancer. I have bladder cancer. So, he's the source of a little inspiration for me.

He's gonna look funny when he's old and fat.

shock, sadness, frustration, anger... next is acceptance, but he never got to that point yet. he pour it all out in rigid activity.

i am a survivor too because:

If you are over 40, born and raised in the Philippines, you
should be dead according to these assertions! To the survivors:

> If you listened to today's regulators and bureaucrats, those
of us who were kids in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s from the Philippines
probably shouldn't have survived.

> We lived in houses with lead-based paint. Asbestos was a common
roofing

> material. We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or

> cabinets, and when we rode our bikes, we used no helmets. We played
with mercury with our hands, polishing coins with it.

> We drank water from anywhere and not from a bottle. Horrors! We
shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle.

> When the streets were flooded, we played outside with our bare feet,
not knowing the water was polluted.

> We bought food from vendors with questionable sanitary practices.

> Mosquito bites were nothing to worry about. Fried rice cooked with lard was always a treat.

> We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were
back when the street lights came on. No one was able to reach us all day. No cell phones. Unthinkable.

> We learned how to ride a jeepney or bus by holding on to the side.
Imagine what would have happened if another vehicle came too close?

> We did not have Play Stations, Nintendo 64, X-Boxes, no video games
at all, no cable TV, no video-tape movies, no surround sound, no cell
phones, no personal computers, no Internet chat rooms. We had friends! We walked to their homes, knocked on the door, or rang the bell or just walked in and talked to them.

> We fell out of trees, got cut and broke bones and teeth, and there
were no lawsuits from these accidents.

> We made up games with sticks and ***** and had worms in our tummy. We never treated infected noses or ears with antibiotics. We just knew that the runoff was yellow in color.

> The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke a law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law. Imagine that!

> This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers and problem-solvers and inventors ever. The past 50 years have seen an explosion of innovation and new ideas.

> We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned
how to deal with it all.

those days they said the girl must use Cortal ( have you heard of it? similar to aspirin) and 7-Up.

how they use it remains a mystery to me till now.

population was not so high back then. i do it under the banana tree and nobody will notice.

I always had a cigarette after sex. You had a bananna?

I don't know about Cortal, but I know how to use an aspirin as a contraceptive. The women holds a tablet between her knees.
