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

The more you make the more say you get.

Take note that you only got that fancy Madone after you brought a big, fat check.

What's there to do on a boat? Clean it off every now and then.

Slow night. Everyone must be in befuddled contemplation of why Los Volunteers aren't playing tonight.

There was an obese writer who threw everyone under the bus, so to speak, so I called him Ralph Cramden. I was similarly admonished for that even though fewer people understood.
I like the way you roll.

Moron manager was there for 2 years! I named him Krusty the Clown because he had eczema or some crust on his hands and he was such a clown. One time he had his car in the shop so I printed out a big picture of Krusty and taped it on his windshield. One of the other guys took it off so I wouldn't get in trouble.

First stupid question I’ve ever heard in my entire life.

Could it be that the Vols lost to both teams by double digits?
