Seriously, keep it up. It's amusing to see a guy like you cluck, all hat, no cattle.
I will give you one thing: You all sure know how to starch a shirt down there. Nice and crisp, nice and crisp.

It's fun to watch Mike remind us how much better Texas is, especially at giving us US Presidents that continued to send troops to unpopular wars.

Then again, the current VP is from Wyoming.

Have at it, guys.

No need to get all defensive. I try hard not to make value judgments about how other people choose to live their lives but sometimes it just slips out.

Just out of curiosity, which iteration of Rambo where you thinking of? Of course I'm biased, but the first one was probably the closest.

Luckily I don't judge a man's manliness on how many weapons he owns.

I judge it on how fast he can ride a bike wearing a lycra kit.

I manage to combine these two, as whenever I am in full kit people are constantly screaming "Cover up! You're killing me!"

Fat dudes in racing kits crack me up. Fortunately, they are rare.

Has to be First Blood, doesn't it? Remember, you're at war with the bear! Humanity is in the bear's and wolf's death grip as we speak. Go get 'em for us, Rambo!

These days I don't wear the jersey, just the shorts. The shorts are too practical to skip, I miss the rear pockets, but I only have a couple of jerseys in an xl size that really mean it (no size inflafiotn in cycling clothes).
