while we are thinking of penises...

i watch that show transgeneration on logo... and its not that great a show but its somewhat interesting late at night... so i am wondering about lucas becoming a guy.. and i am just not that convinced of it all... how can they give you a penis?... so i started googling...

there are a lot of procedures.. the results are not at all convincing... they can enlarge the clitoris (Metoidioplasty) or they can actually make a whole new "penis" that looks more like a weirdo magic water snake like you used could get from amusement parks and the fair and magic shops... either way this "penis" doesnt work like a penis... its a tough life... if you wanna see some wacky shit google it yourslef... "Metoidioplasty" and "Phalloplasty"...

one question from this site:

"Say you were with a woman who doesnt know you've done a FtM surgery,
would she notice ? Is any of the procedures done to the body noticeable ?

The woman would know that you are somewhat “impaired” compared to a bio guy's sexual functioning. You can’t achieve erection normally, you can’t ejaculate, and you won’t be able to have children. And you will have scars. You could tell her you had some kind of accident or something or just be honest."

good advice to be honest.. and once you see the pictures of a phalloplasty you can add this to the answer: "uh... yeah... if you are with a woman who doesnt know you had FtM surgery, she will as soon as she sees that thing... so better to be honest about it..."

but seriously this is some intersting shit if you care to get into it... especially the hormone side of things...

this is a good primer of related issues- wikepedia

NRC restructure...

i am thinking about this seriously.. i am drafting a document.. but it doesnt matter if USA CYCLING doesnt get on some promotion for it... i think they dont really care about the NRC...

maybe a national calendar isnt a good way to do things anyway... maybe its better to have stand alone events that are not promoted in a centralized way... better that way that you dont have to rely on the feds to do it...

fuck it.. its all going down.. i am racing in an industrial park tomorrow... old school roots racing... thats where its at... one last weekend of false sense of security before the NRC starts...

"I got to party and socialize at an Olympic level."- bode miller

quote of the week...

i am going to rock out at an NRC level this year... bet on it... i am gonna go all out and be the biggest good time you ever saw...

whoo!....

Are you serious...???

First off - I want to share my utter most
disappointment in your leg shaving. My understanding
was that you were to remain furry until you had a win
or at least a podium this season. Did you lose your
sack? Did the boys pressure into conformity? I thought
you had more fortitude than that...

Secondly - what kind of cyclist are you that you would
not see an opportunity to optimize the kindness of the
neighbor in leaving you fresh earth. How could you
want to destroy this gift. Were you deprived as a
child? We lived for mounds of fresh dirt to groom and
mold into vertical propulsion devices. You can't see
this? No imagination, or are you just scared?
Obviously you didn't graduate from BMX to the ever
sexy world of underwear modeling on two wheels at
speed. Had you have had a proper upbringing you would
have grabbed a shovel, used your hairy legs to build
lips on these unwelcomed obstacles and felt the rush
of adrenalin of the ends of the means of a good
sprint. Though your BMX skills may leave a lot to be
desired don't let that impair your visions (or lack
there of).

i shaved becuase i got sick of myself...

Scissors in Arm!

Scissors in Arm!... have you seen this?.. probably...

old school petty boys.. pre-order them.. like tomorrow i make the button to pre-order for end of march

this is an audio post - click to play
today's reunion show was pretty dumb.. but it did have some nice moments... like guadaloupe vidal... that bitch was high... and then the whole daniel franco v santino rice thing... please...

santino rice is the total package for this show... intimidator (like dale)... talent... entertainer... shit talker... makes good sound bites... i think he has the best sense of showmanship.. and by far the most acute awareness that this is a game for our entertainment...

santino rice: "emmett... EAT MY ASS!"

zulema griffen: "i dont care if you cry but you better cry and cut"

santino rice: "i was listeniing but i just didnt subscribe to what your were saying"

these are by far my two favorite people on the show...

project runway

this was the last project before the final 3 in fashion week...

mission: create an evening gown that will show the theme of the line that you will take to fashion week if you make teh final 3...


santino: gold gown... 500 trims, check... he picks about a million phat sequins "paillettes" they call them.. is it because they are a bit oversized?... paillette is just french for sequins anyway... i had gold sequins glued all over my carnacs when i was in france... so i feel the phat sequins on santino's joint... i feel the gold...

chloe: not real interesting what she is doing...

daniel: always doing something nice.. i picked up on the nice navy color

kara: had not a clue as to what was going on.. and they kept cutting to her talking about how terrible she was feeling about it all...

it is soon revealed that iman will be the super duper secret judge and will wear the winning gown during a red carpet event...

i think- iman is the guest judge and she wears the dress?... santino wins... gold sequins on iman is going to be good...

les paillettes... dope!... but as it progressed i was less excited about it... there werent 500 trims.. there were like maybe only 50... the bottom was nicer than the top.. but i can say that it made a statement compared to what the other designers did... but it wasnt a signature santino dress... not like his niki hilton one... it sort of didnt live up to the promose of his original scetch... but hey.. what can you do?...

the highlight?... kors called santino right out and that was pretty funny to me... he said that santino knows that the judges know what he is going to do.. and that he knows the judges arent going to dig it so much but he is going to do his thing anyway just to make the point... he gets props for his fuck em all attitude but kors is on to him... it just goes to show these old guys know something...that old kors has seen it all before... just when you are convinced that you are new and different somebody comes along to say "Listen up, maggot. You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else."

this episode to me was not that great...

daniel wins.. deservedly... kara is out.. predictably... i cant say whose garment was that great because i think this time it really didnt have to do much with the challenge. it had more to do with the body of work produced during teh show... i try to take the show as it is presented.. but this time it was a forgone conclusion and for the quality of the show and the validity of it's result what was done had to be done... any one of the 3 designers could have turned out shit (and they did) and the result would not have been changed...

i finally figured out that santino (who is freinds with me on myspace) looks like julio from sanford and son...



i was happy that santino and daniel could share a hug... because it is just a game in the fight club sense... now if santino could just punch daniel in the ear we would have something worth watching this time...

now- this is what i wanna know... who would make the grade into project mayhem?... you cant really say because the whole lesson of fight club is that you never know what people can become and how great they can be when they have nothing and have no reasons.. you cant live until you die... who can "make it work" when all pretense has been removed and there is only you and you now know that you just arent special and you never were...

Mimeograph machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Mimeograph machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia if you dont know what a mimeo looks like here is an example.. this one isnt very purple and blotty but they often were purple and blotty... this mimeo is from rutgers and they are big time and probably know how to work a mimeo machine unlike Richmond Public Shcools... RPS lived by the mimeo machine well into the xerox age as too i am sure did other public school systems... the purple juicy ink that you put in them got you high... and i remember how cool it was that you sat there and turned a crank to churn out purple blotty sheets of whatever that were sometimes not legible... a lot of times the sheets would get crossed a bit and the text columns would slant off to teh sides and get cut off.. just like in the days of early xerox's when they sucked and the fumes of those got you high as well... also interesting was when the teachers aid (who was a mean bitch usually) would run out of mimeo fluid and have to get some and then she would spill it on herself... that was always really good...

i gotta find more info on these fools who wanna do SOL's for colleges and universities...

i predict curtis gunn wins the TT at valley of the sun... thats what i think...

i cant believe i missed the boat

on making fun of dick shooting his buddy in the face... its sort of tragic though... so i think i just didnt see more humor than awful tragedy...

thats just gotta suck though...

i guess he was so excited to shoot something that he just wasnt paying too much attention to that guy standing 30 yards in front of his gun... its possible that the guy that got shot was standing somewhere that he shouldnt have been... but i dont know the etiquette of hunting... guns dont kill (hurt) people... people do.. and especially when they arent paying attention...

more pre-fabs in Thun swiss...



from bill-
Hey Dude, here's one for your collection. These are "holiday apartments" on
the Lake of Thun. They are used during the summer, one family/group to a
tube.

i wanna go to dubai...

if you have been tell me if its cool.. my brother went and he said it was incredible...

i want to buy a place on one of those crazy palm islands...

i think its a great monument to the hubris of man and for sure they will sink onto the ocean as a karmic ego check to man-kind.. but i think i will get over the feeling that i am contributing to something evil... the pull of the darkside is great...

eat bacon cheese and avocado

i am tired of racing against in shape riders

this sunday was a bit tougher of a race since i had to actually go hard... we are geting a lot of in shape riders now... and the united team was out there all in shape to do tour of california... so they were riding like you are supposed to which means we had to as well... lots of break aways and chases... they say we were on 30 mph for 90 minutes.. but the course is fast and we were really wide into the turns often so it couldnt have been so hard even if it was fast.. but a few times things did heat way up...

they changed the course for the race and its now got an uphill sweeping final turn and a chicane after turn 1... so it was exciting... everyone forgets how to turn in the first few races of the year...

i think our team got it done... but since this race was quicker it was a bit tougher to ride on the buddy system like we try to do... and we were again short handed in the end... i got it going a bit for josh in the end but he lost my wheel into turn 3 and then you are up the hill and into turn 4.. so its not the best idea to pass on the hill at the speed we were going if you want to do a good sprint... he ended up 5th or 6th but was relegated beacase he folded his number... the worst offical ever doc hess was out punish us... i think he doesnt like being antagonized by riders who mock him by folding their numbers... this is why we like CBR.. look for an article in velonews on how bad ass CBR is...

bahati was there but didnt race...

i dropped anchor in a big way after i did a lap at full gas to bring in cruz friedrick and domingue who were team time trialing off the front... that hurt...

i wore my XS jersey yesterday and my big ol oakley riddles... and i still havent shaved my legs...

big neal movie in the works

yeah.. i just talked to him today and he is working on a movie deal... i told him that i wanted a job in the movie.. like maybe i could play him... but i dont think he is seriously considering t... we joked about casting options for an hour... if he could just get 50 cent and madonna for the sound track he would be set.. or maybe 50 can play him... and get shot like maybe nine times or so and roll in an up-rimmed H2 with chrome... "oh shit... RPG's"... SKUUUURT...

i just booked my ticket to belgium to jack boonen's helmet if he is crazy enough to wear it in a race... i can for sure roll bettini for his ice...
tomorrow i am going to go down and do the tour de palm springs... its a century ride.. my man mitch gold is having a big camp right now and they are going to do it and so i decided its an easy way to get in a big ride... then i am going to the race in brea sunday...

they changed the course but i cant tell what the changes are by that little map they have in the pdf... i bet its still really fast...

after we got goodwin into third last sunday i am hoping that we can get him a win... he got passed because he had a lot of road to go into a 3/4 head wind after i dumped him off... we were mad short handed in that one... every weekend at the local races the races get tougher and tougher as more good riders start to come out... so maybe there will be some seriously fast guys.. i hope so.. becuase hard races are better than easy ones... and to ride well with a bunch of young guys when they are in awe of the competition means more to our team... the key to sunday will be the participation obligatory lead out...

This is funny too.

you can meet nice girls in a bar...
i remember the first time i raced a race in france that had bad cross winds.. it ws my second race... i was in really bad position because people were going fucking nuts on this straight road out of town with a ton of round-a-bouts... we were doing 53kph curb to curb 'square peloton' as they call it when it gets sick fast but wont line out because guys are that keyed up... and i was like 'fuck this'... so i just rode easy in the middle of 120 guys... then we took a right turn onto a farm road and i swear the race literally blew to ribbons... it was like an old flag shredding in the wind with guys everywhere and forming into echelons... it was beautiful to watch and i remember it still in slow motion... no wonder they were fighting like mad to be near the front... i could see it all really well because i had just decided that it wasn't worth the fight for position and was riding in the middle... little did i know...

and this was 5k into the 180k race... so it was 5k and race over for more than half the field... i was able to make the second big group but the front 20-30 were gone... so for me it was 5k and go training...

the second road stage of nature valley was like this too.. and merced in 2001... and solano in 2002... we dont get to race too many races where it cracks open into echelons and it decides the race... these are my favorite kinds of races...

PARKPRE TT

Somebody else already got theirs!

project runway...

nick is gone...

his outfit sucked and it was bad... a mens suit with bad seams and no pockets and no buttons... fruity looking fabric... it wasnt really the suit that he described and it looked like really bad euro trash... daniel i think has a quiet confidence and a sensitive compassion that didnt really come across in this outfit for him...

chloe won but i have to tell you that kara was robbed.. i picked her to be gone but once again she killed it... she has been just sitting in waiting to put the hammer down and in the last two times she has really smashed things up big time.. and this challenge she deserved to win.. but was absolutely robbed...

santino seemed to be more worried about how hot he was going to look down the runway than putting together his jump suit for kara... he did look great... with the time he lost his outfit was not finished and he was on the block for it... the first real instance for him where his ego got him in trouble... his jumpsuit was pretty damned hot and kara looked good but it just wasnt finished... kara maybe didnt dig it though... she is "weak" as santino said and i can imagine that he steam rolled over her and she ended up being just a big doll for santino to dress up like he wanted... santino is a guy who expects to get what he wants and has no problem asserting himself, or injecting himself either... and in the absence of any strong will from kara he was fine with moving along in his own direction... again... this harmed him because it is true that he doesnt consider the end user as an individual in his garments.. he considers himself equal at least to the wearer when he conceives his creations... which to me is fine...

it would make me happy to see santino win.. especially now that it seems that he is hated by the other designers... he is hands down my favorite guy on the show... he is one funny ass dude.. here are some quotes:

when nick is nervously looking over his suit to tweak the imperfections santino chimes "you cant polish a turd!"... and nick got all mad and gave him the silent treatment for the rest of the show...

when kara and santino are fitting his pants in the mirror santino asks in his deep slow monotone voice "are these space pants?".. kara "?"... "cuz my ass looks out of this world"...

and then later.. after santino had clearly worn thin on the others he said to nick "we take turd designers and then we polish them".. as if he were the producer explaining to someone the premise of the show... and nick just got more ticked off... to bad so sad nick...

on the rift between himself and nick (who had previously been friendly)- "i help him in the challenges and he asks my advice but if he wants to give me the silent treatment thats fine.. then i wont help you and i wont tell you that the suit you are designing for daniel vosovic makes him look like a girl".. and was so right...

santino rice is the best fucking guy on that show.. bar none...

but i was disappointed that when he was "in" he didnt have a handshake for nick who was "out"... things go the way they do and people dont get along... and people get shitty to each other and they are little bitches who have to pick on somebody's glued on stripes, but its correct to show proper respect to your fellow competitors in a competition with a handshake when they loose.. to show that you respect him for a game well played after all.. and to say that there is no shame in losing when you have played your best and have been beaten... now that to me would have been right... and santino would then be the fucking man.. but as it is he is just the best fucking guy on that show...

i got my parkpre and i will take a picture of it

project runway...

andre is gone...

i was really happy that he kept it together on the runway... he was totally fucking robbed the challenge before... and then he got ejected.. just like zulema who threw down the show before she got cut too...

thats why i like this show.. its about what you produce on the day, not what you have done before, and not who likes you, and how well you play with the other contestants.. you dont get voted off or anything by the others like survivor...

nick, i have to say is a puss... i like him before.. but since he got his model took he just hasnt been the same...

i like kara to go home next... it would be normal.. since after teetering she killed it in the last challenge and now must be canned like daniel and zulema... kara pulled the high and outside dangle then dove over 4 down the stretch to catch daniel napping.. a nice move worthy of respect... its great to see the text book move you expect in an elimination- but done big like kara did it... i suspend my racsism against south africans for her... and jopie joffers wherever you are...

i liked zulema- (her website) a lot.. and i like santino... to win i like daniel

i like santino, daniel, and chloe for the last 3...

and i really liked daniel franco.. but he was gone early... i didnt like him to win.. but he was cool...

go to the website and see the exit interviews

i'll bring some maxim gels and stuff and extran to the race this weekend and to st valentines day if anybody wants to hit me up..you can save shipping

rant...

i remember back in the days when you used to could get handlebars that actually had drops that went down.. nowdays all bars are so shallow that the drops are just the same as the tops as the hoods... and i blame old guys with bad backs...

it used to be that you could get a 73 degree stem too... but now you can only get stupid up-stems... because of all the old guys with bad backs...

and bikes these days have taller and taller head tubes because of the old guys with bad backs...

whats the net effect?.. if you are a bike racer who is young and flexible you cant get a bike where you have low drops for being aero.. because bikes dont have real drop bars anymore and they have up-stems and tall head tubes.. i remember before a-head you couldnt catch any self-respecting biker dead with an up-stem on his bike... but now thats all you get...

only the italians still will give you some deep old school bars.. everybody else just has one bar.. and thats for OE becuase people want to be "comfy"...

seriously.. its jacked up that racing bikes these days are set up so that they are comfy at 20mph... when really on a racing bike you should have it set up to be comy at 30mph... which isnt really the same thing...
