Let me ask you this (and it's going to take a tremendous effort on your part to suspend belief for however long it takes you to answer) and I want you to answer it as honestly as you can:

I know you think I was untruthful and mean in my evaluation, but hypothetically speaking, if I actually thought you were chubby and not pretty or cute, how could I have said so without you thinking I was mean? Seriously, how would you have drafted a response given that hypothetical?

Is the only way to not be mean to say you are pretty? Maybe I should have blamed the lighting?

eta: Alrighty! It's me vs. Penske. Leadville 2008?

Will do!

When he did it last year, his goal was to finish under ten and a half hours, and he finished right under nine. He had no idea what to expect the first race, and he was just really hoping to finish it. If you don't finish in under 12 hours, they don't consider that you've finished. This time around, he knew what to expect and had some more lofty goals.

He said he was pretty blown away when he got passed by a girl and never saw her again. And later he got passed by a guy on a one speed. There were even a couple of tandems up there.

I am just saying that to proclaim you are not delusional is a bit dubious becuase, like, if you really are delusional, then, well, you don't know that you are because of the whole delusion thing, and you probably have deluded yourself into thinking you are not delusional, so, like, when you say you are not delusional, well, sure -- it may be true; but how do we know based just on your statement?

Think about it.

You misunderestimated the profundity of my analysis of your astute observation. If we are all deluded, then what's any one person's delusion but another subjective spin on an unattainable reality?

Thank about it.

She would have looked much better had you not been late.

I will contribute too. And there is no need to report on your hotness because your smokin'ness has already been accurately confirmed.

I'm trying to figure out how to thank about something. Do I roam around it, being grateful?

I love love love love love Shifty.

True story, no offence:

Your first girl...always a tough moment. Mine was in a corn field in Muncie, IN. Around mile 9. She was a pro from Baltimore.

Once during a race I saw a guy who took a header going down a mountain pass, at (approx) 55 MPH, die. so I guess the comparison is sort of on point.

Two summers ago, I passed a dead guy on the road during a race. According to my friend, who was in the pack the guy was in during the crash, they were only going 40 at the time.

Did that race again this summer, but this time, did the team time trial. Safety first.

Especially not on the inside. Unless so fucking annoying = pretty now.

Greed, seriously other than meeting the additional folks, really I've kinda let what you said go. I'm sulking a little--but let's bury this a little.

I would have said INSERT FUCKING TACT HERE.

"You know, okay I met with her, she is nice, yada yada, she's so not my type, too heavy but you could make a case. she's not ugly. decent hair, not nasty legs, she's not like, scare dogs off a meat wagon ugly. she's attractive enough, but again, not my type so there ya have it"

Indeed. I will fully admit to being a bit of wussy on the down hills.

Hilarity ensued.
