The family saw Lance in Austin, TX on Friday,
Me 'n the missus pulled the children out of school for friday. We were heading to Seaworld in San Antonio and figured we would make a trip to the Texas State Capitol. After the tour of the Capitol, we were hanging around downstairs (looking for the restroom) and a lady sidled up to my wife and stated that our children might get a kick out of seeing Lance Armstrong. SHe said that Mr. Armstrong was going to be on the senate floor. So we boogied up to the third floor viewing area and waited around. Luckily Mr. Armstrong was the first person to be there. He was there to promote the "Texas Cancer Prevention and Research Institute" funded by 300 billion dollars. SO we took a couple of Pictures of Mr. Armstrong who was there with his Mom. It was pretty cool. Seeing the start of Legislative session, and getting to see Lance and His Mother on the senate floor.

Seaworld was pretty cool as well.

Back to the grindstone...

300 million or 3 billion, but 300 billion can't be right. For 300 billion, you could invade a foreign country (such as Iraq) and occupy it for a few years.

He was sitting in my brother in laws office during the breaks, waiting for his turn to address the floor.

I saw him out riding the other day - he eyed my new CDA with visible jealousy compared to his plastic ride.

She looks like Sheryl.

Who looks like Kristin.

Who looks like … his mom.

Lance. The new John Derek.

Kristen would be my pick - Some friends go to church with her and my friend's wife and she are pretty close - says L.A. was not easy to live with, at all. Not too surprising really.

You've got to be kidding me. So he thinks women that look like his mother are attractive? Big ****ing deal. Maybe they all happen to look like his second grade teacher. Ever think about that?

What would be creepy is if he screwed animals because his mother is a human. That would be creepy.
