Lol. I'm watching the Tour footage from today and 2 people didn't start for stage 16.

I don't blame them. The stage started off right away with a Cat 1 climb, with another one right after it and 2 HC climbs after that!!!!!

They are the smart ones.

They probably looked at todays stage and said "Nope. Not gonna do it."

I've said it in the past (Not here, but in my head at least) and last night proved it.

WWE is trying to make The Miz into the second coming of The Rock.

Think about it. Both started off as faces (Rock as Rocky Maivia, an in ring competitor. Miz as Mike Mizanin, his real name, an on air personality.) They both became heels soon afterwards. They both are good on the mic and extremely sure of themselves. They both can be described as charismatic bullies. The even both have "The" for their first name!

I've liked Miz for quite some time, at least on the mic. After he and John Morison split, everyone thought it would be Morrison that would make it big. I figured it would be both. Since then Morrison has held the IC title and that is about it. Miz had held the Tag Belts, the US title multiple times, has appeared on all 4 shows, sometimes in a single week, and is the only Pro to return for NXT Season 2 (Maybe it should be renamed "The Miz Show if he comes back for a third season)

Last night, he won the Raw Money In The Bank match, giving him a guaranteed title shot anytime he wants it in the next year. I have a feeling that he will cash it in and take the belt from Cena, renewing their feud from after Miz was drafted to Raw. And eventually, he will turn face.

And much like Randy Orton's, and Ken Anderson's face turns (and CM Punk's Heel turn) I can't wait to see it.

Holy Crap!!!!

I'm reading through the manual for Starcraft since the new one comes out in about a week (YAY!!!!) and I figured I should finish the first one and Brood War before I play the new one. I got to the chapter about the Protoss and am reading their history when I realized something. From the start of the Protoss' history until their first contact with the Humans, there are no paragraphs! Everything is a series of long paragraphs separated only by new headings!

Yes Non-Existent Readers, one of the most popular video games of all time makes a major grammatical error in it's instruction manual.

It's a good think the game (and pretty much every thing Blizzard makes) completely rocks of Awesomeness!!!!

Watching Stage 9 of the 2010 Tour De France, and really enjoying the one on one duel between Contador and Andy Schleck. Schleck was having a blast with a big smile on his face the whole time.

Part of that smile might be because he was taking on the reigning champ. Part of it might have been because he was having fun. Or part of it might be be because, at that poiint, he was wearing yellow. Cadel Evens, the leader going into stage 9, was about 2 minutes back, which meant that Schleck, who was 20 seconds behind Evens at the start, was the new leader, assuming he can hold onto the lead till the end. and he has about 41 seconds over Contador.

I meanwhile, was having a blast not just because it was good riding, but because it was Schleck, my pick to win, taking on Cantador, who I can't stand.

I just finished watching Taylor's Ultimate on the Cooking channel, and he was making Omelets!

I love omelets. Actually I love eggs in general. the Cook book I am slowly working on has a section for Breakfast dishes and a section for Egg dishes. That is how much I love eggs.

I missed the first few minutes, which I am guessing was just intro stuff. He went to France to learn how to make a French Omelet, then he went to Spain to learn how to make a Tortilla De Patatas, an omelet similar to a Fritata, or similar to the omelets my mom made growing up.

The thing I don't get is why go to Spain? When he made his "Ultimate" Omelet (there was no meat or cheese involved so I don't know how it can be called ultimate. Then again, I am from the Midwest and he is from New York, so that might be why) all he used was the techniques he learned in France, which he already knew how to do. He did nothing to do with the Spanish version he learned to make. Couldn't he have Incorporated that in some how? Maybe serve it with some fried potatoes or something?

Watching the Tour footage over the last few days (Stages 1 and 2 today in fact) got me thinking.

I really need to get back in the saddle.

Maybe if it isn't raining and I can't get an appointment to get my tires changed on my truck (hope to, but would rather have them change them on Wednesday since I can clean it tomorrow then) I might hive to do some riding.

Just have to choose riding music. I'm thinking maybe some Project 86.

man, if the riders didn't like the course for stage 2, they are going to hate stage three and the cobblestones at the end.
