A bunch of things
Gossip No Comments »Its allergy season. Every tree, flower, and piece of grass is blooming and maaaannnn my allergies have been kickin lately. There is pollen everywhere. I’ve been using Singulair for the last few years when my allergies start acting up and I just read the other day that there are a slew of warnings surrounding the drug and some nasty possible side effects. The FDA are worse then the weather people, I want a job where I am paid to be wrong too. It could go like this (Jeremy:) “Hey Danny sorry the break went up the road today and we didn’t have anyone in it.” (Danny:) “Powers, no problem, we’re actually going to double your salary next year!” Sounds good right? To continue on with my negativity, I got pulled over two months ago. I was baffled, I waited for the officer to get up to me, “why don’t you have a front marker plate” The story went, and this is the truth, I had just became a masshole, I took one of my Connecticut license plates off but lost the bolts somewhere. I had to jet to an appointment and I didn’t have the front plate on… The guy read me the act “this car could be stolen, we can’t have people out committing crimes with no front markers on their vehicles…(okkkaaayyy) So he wrote me a ticket,
but “just to make sure I got the plate back on my car” So I put the plate on when I got back, just as I planned on doing. Mailed in my ticket not guilty and finally went to court. Court took about 30 seconds the prosecutor looked at me and said “not responsible” and off I went. So that was a waste of everyones time. Continuing on, Delta is now charging for the second bag, so you show up with two bags at delta, and your going to pay an extra 25 clams. Getting back to bike racing, The team and I are down in Arkansas stayin at our old teammate Bryce Jones place. Great accommodations, really beats a hotel on any level. My teammate (the bird) is comfortable here, look at this guy.
Today is the uphill time trail and then tomorrow we head out for a 100 miler and from there the racin begins. I haven’t heard much about Tim Duggan or the big man Zirbel, but I wish those both those guys a quick recovery! The podcast is going to happen, when I get home, I’ll post the first mix. Seeya!
