madison update
Thursday, June 14th, 2007So far so good. I teamed up with the Little Guy for the night. We finished DFL in the kilo, but who cares. It’s a good experience.
At least I don’t have any “track stomach”…whatever the hell that is.

Fred Thompson
Thursday, June 14th, 2007Disgraced lawyer, and Karl Rove protege, Tim Griffin has been hired by Fred Thompson for his presidential campaign staff. Thompson has also been writing letters to lobby for an easy sentence for convicted felon and former Vice Presidential aide Scooter Libby.
Let’s not play pretend, a Fred Thompson presidency would be, for all practical purposes, a third term for Bush administration political hacks and incompetent fools.
Thompson is riding high in the polls now, as is typical for someone who is seen as the outsider. Once he actually gets motivated enough to enter the race and stick his nose into the wind I expect a lot of the excitement regarding a Thompson presidency will soon deflate.
The question is, is he motivated enough? His recent appearance on the Tonight Show can not be very encouraging to Thompson supporters.
Ill fitting suit, slouched back in the chair, wishy-washy down-home and folksy non-answers to the questions asked. Where I have seen this routine before? And then, hilariously, Thompson talks about denigrating the office of the presidency!
Maybe I am wrong, I often am, but I think this guy is polling about as high as he is going to get. Once he gets into the circus his poll numbers will only decline. Of course, he actually has to get off his ass and enter the race first. His reputation for laziness seems based less on rumor and more on reality.
Bring on that stupid red pickup truck.
Yesterday’s best
Thursday, June 14th, 2007The best thing I read on the internet yesterday:
I keep a rock in my desk that so far has been one-hundred percent effective in preventing rhinoceros attack on my home.
This was in reply to someone stating that the Bush Administration has been effective in preventing another terrorist attack on the United States.
Madison Training
Thursday, June 14th, 2007Here are some shots from Tuesday night:
Skibby is sitting very dainty! He is ready to ride his bicycle. No one is sitting nearby because Skibby is usually in the midst of a toxic cloud of colorless (but not oderless) gas of his own creation.
The National Champion and Skidsy. The National Champion was worried about this photo because he thought I would give him a hard time about wearing a World Championship jersey that he did not earn nor deserve to ever wear out in public. I told him that I would never call a guy out like that.
Skidsy is walking around checking out everyone else’s bike to make sure that his is still the coolest. Whatever dude. Find a lockring yet!?
Bing hanging out looking for his next girl friend. He’s got one for Tuesday nights and he’s got one for Thursday nights. Mondays and Wednesdays are open right now if you are interested. You know where to find him ladies, just be discreet. I can pass him your digits in between races if you want but you have to buy me a slice of pizza first.
I was almost out of memory because I forgot to load in a storage card on my digital camera but I had enough space left for one more shot.
DS taking a break between madison sessions.
