Lance is a god yes he is... imo, he has got to be probably the world's strongest man :) winning 7 TdF (assuming he holds on and wins) consecutively is a demonstration of almost superhuman physical strength and mental tenacity, and most of all.... heart the knee is doing fine....i go tomorrow for my follow up visit and hopefully 'cut loose' it's amazing what can be done arthroscopically...i had a torn miniscus (did know that for sure until i asked my doctor for an mri) so i'm hoping that fixing that will free me up to do some bigger and better things physically (can't believe how i had to baby that knee for the past 3 years!)

speaking of lance.... i thought this was funny (at the bottom of the piece) :) ROVE BLOWS SURPRISE PARTY FOR FIRST LADY President 'Hopping Mad' Over Advisor's Latest Leak President Bush is said to be "hopping mad" over reports that deputy chief of staff Karl Rove wrecked a surprise party the president had been planning for First Lady Laura Bush by leaking details of the party to Mrs. Bush before it took place, White House sources said today. According to the sources, Mr. Bush had been meticulously planning to surprise Mrs. Bush with a "Welcome Home" party upon her return from her goodwill trip to Africa, even going so far as to decorate her office with streamers and blow up dozens of balloons himself. The president was determined that the party be a surprise, warning all White House staffers to keep the secret, "cross their hearts and hope to die," sources said. But according to insiders, Mr. Rove "just couldn't resist blabbing" about the party to the First Lady, placing a call to Mrs. Bush in Tanzania to inform her that she should be prepared for a "big blow-out" when she got back to Washington. Mr. Bush, who has reportedly been taking a wait-and-see attitude about Mr. Rove's alleged leak of a CIA operative's identity, told staffers that if in fact Mr. Rove wrecked the First Lady's surprise party, "He's toast." Mr. Bush has ordered a full investigation of the surprise party leak, but in the meantime, according to one source, "The standard operating procedure around here is, if you've got a secret, don't tell Karl." Elsewhere, organizers of the Tour de France announced today that, to save everyone time and effort, Lance Armstrong has won the race through the year 2018. borowitzreport.com
