Al - so I just chatted with my bro-in-law. The spectator-rider who went down was not actually paralyzed. Went to the hospital and was fine. There was also a local transient on a bike who got hit and killed by a car at 50+ mph (unrelated to the race). It was his own fault for running a stop sign. Darwin in action, I suppose.

The non-profit has been around for 30 years, however, looks like they have lost money the last couple of years and their main source of funds is the County - which, with budget shortfalls I'm assuming is going to only decrease.

SQRN: Ask around the hospital about the iPhone. Your hospital MAY have an App available that is specific to your hospital and what you do. I know a surgeon up in the Bay Area and his hospital developed an App for the iPhone that he says is absolutely invaluable to him. If your hospital has something similar it may help your decision.

I think I was in the perfect spot. From Highland Valley I could see down the valley and see the riders from at least 3 miles away. Plus, the last half mile to me was steep so they had to slow.

Off to ride over to Highland Valley Road which is 10 miles from my home. I should see the tour riders pass about 20min into the ride (90min from now) after the short, very steep, initial climb on Highland valley near Bandy. Maybe a click a pic or two. ST probably knows where I'm talking about.

HA! I just got this email: "Oh, Rita... I am honored and humbled by your interest in the Everest Challenge for 2009. And touched by your offer to beg, even plead for a date change. No need for you to grovel, though. Here is how it went down: The Millpond Music Festival changed its dates to the 18th - 20th. Major bummer, since there is no way we can use Millpond that weekend. Or even drive by Millpond that weekend. Then the Sierra Fall Century (which was September 6, 2008!) changed also, and we are stuck with a weekend I don't want, and folks are upset. I can't change the dates for 2009 at this point. I already have permits, ads, calendar listings, etc. And there is no date to change to. Labor day is impossible. 19th is the Music Fest, 26th I can't do because my Mom is celebrating a major birthday and I am booked over a year in advance. Don't think I can change that date! Can't do it October 3, since that is the 508. Which I am planning to race in. October 10? Before Labor Day? See the problem? You can be sure that I will NOT schedule the EC on top of the SFC, of course I will not schedule it on top of the Millpond Music Festival, and if that means the last weekend in September, so be it. Would love to make you happy...how can I do that? steve"

I think he might, E. Seriously. For one thing, his event crosses over into Mono County on Saturday - and if Mono County permitting and county sheriff, EMT, etc., are already standing by for the Fall Century (700+ riders), his event (200-300 riders) may not get the support necessary to be safely staged, hence, permit denied. pretty simple. :-) Maybe he didn't think about that, maybe he already looked into it and it's not a problem. I don't know. It never hurts to ask, I think.

Dateline: Dallas Texas. A small, curious man was arrested today after stewardesses on an American Airlines flight from Birmingham, reported that, after 9 drinks, he began removing all his clothes and dancing like a trampy stipper up and down the aisle in the First Class section of the plane. Allegedly, as reported by another passenger, Mr. James Dillion of Flower Mound Texas, was singing the jig from the movie Madagascar, "I like to move it move it, she likes to move it move it, as he grabbed a tightly-built blond stewardass with a huge rack and a 108 IQ, by the hand and swung her around doe-see-doe. Mr. Dillion, a process enginneer, finisher of a dozen Ironman triathlons with an FTP close to 300 watts and a privite pilot himself, who is married and a father of two, was subdued by openly gay steward who apparently whipsered in Mr. Dillions ear, "youre cute and Id like to do it do it with you". Upon hearing the sexy something whispered by the homo, Mr. Dillion beat the ever-living dog crap out of him/her and was subdued a second time by passengers and arrested upon landing. His attorneys are filing a claim against the airlines for enticement, stating that the trampy stewardesses all had fake racks and not a one of them had more then a 12th grade education. Word from an airlines representative is forthcoming.

Todays reading is from the Book of Matthis, Chapter 10, Verse 13 - Chances are, 'cause I wear that silly grin the moment you come into view; chances are you think that I'm in love with you. Just because my composure sort-of slips the moment that your lips meet mine, chances are you think my heart's your Valentine. In the magic of moonlight, when I sigh "hold me close, dear" chances are you believe the stars that fill the skies are in my eyes. Guess you feel you'll always be the one and only one for me and if you think you could, well, chances are your chances are awfully good! The chances are your chances are awfully good!
