They both have numerous frustrating traits that work against the very things they are advocating, yet they endlessly fascinate me. Drag Race never disappoints. If nothing else, the mantra of 'ride it like you stole it' comes to mind and pushes me a little faster on a training ride.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07659814936232202831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15336507.post-1605999495795131572011-12-13T17:46:13.900-09:002011-12-13T17:46:13.900-09:00I didn't enjoy a single moment of that video. ...I didn't enjoy a single moment of that video. My only hope is that when he gets hit, it kills him quickly so that his medical bills don't ultimately raise my health insurance premiums (if in fact he has health insurance) or my tax dollars don't have support him when his head injury leaves him a drooling, comatose invalid on Medicaid.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337293870835088271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15336507.post-49254997882580391442011-12-13T02:06:17.087-09:002011-12-13T02:06:17.087-09:00Dear Lucas Brunnelle,

As if I didn't get enough disrespect from motorists and snow plows...<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Fuck you.Griddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09514885093239979941noreply@blogger.com
