Were Churchill a coward, he might have an airport in France named for him.

Only the French consider cowards to be heroes.

Doesn't apply to bikes, though. Lance Armstrong shows that.

AlanS, Who gives a tinker's damn about having a civilian air port named after him? If it was a military air base, where brave flyers are ready to defend their country, it would be an honor, but a landing place for tourists, doesn't cut the mustard.
