Should I break it to him that there's about 5 feet of snow still on the ground here in Western Mass,
but I haven't done less than 20 hours a week?

As Graeme Miller would say, "softcock."

COVINGTON, Louisiana (AP) -- Two dozen monkeys escaped from a research center and holed up in a
forest, where animal-control workers used bananas and oranges to try to lure them out.

The monkeys are classified as disease-free and posed no health risk to humans, but workers trying to
capture the animals wore protective gowns and gloves as a standard precaution, said Fran Simon, a
spokeswoman for the Tulane Regional Primate Center.

By Wednesday, eight of the 24 rhesus macaques remained on the loose.

"When they get hungry enough, they'll come back," Simon said.

The Tulane Regional Primate Research Center, established in 1964, is the largest of eight federally
funded primate research centers, with 500 acres of land, eight buildings and about 5,000 monkeys.
Its main study area is infectious diseases caused by viruses, bacteria and parasites.

It was not clear how the monkeys escaped from a fenced area outside the research facility Tuesday,
said James Hartman, a spokesman for the St. Tammany Parish sheriff.

In the past, animal-rights activists have freed or attempted to free monkeys, but there were no
signs that vandalism played any role in Tuesday's escape, Hartman said.

It's more like something I do for personal enjoyment, and get paid enough to make some other
sacrifices to be able to commit to it.

David was complaining about weather, not any kind of time commitment. Most pros don't like to train
in the bad weather. You have _like it_ to do something like that.

Thank you.

> So what if Dave is a Softcock?

Oh, no real problem. More entertainment. It just struck me as humorous that his weather was probably
10 degrees better and a few feet less of snow than hours, and he was writing about it like it was
impossible to train.

That's funny, because they have been a few times when you have been angry with myself and Andrew and
said "How would you like it if I came to your

Hey, don't send this stuff to [email protected] if you're going to post it here, too. I can't keep up.

Coaching is my job. Racing is what I was talking about. I'm a professional coach. But I race because
I like to, even though I have a professional license and take a professional approach. If it was my
primary source of income, perhaps my feelings would be different.

What was your point again?

Problem with New York is that the snow melts, the roads get wet and icy - much more frequently than
Mass. How was Mexico and Arizona? The snow 5' deep there too? ;-)

Hey, that was only for 10 days.

And I was sick the Monday-Thursday between races, and only rode an hour a day. I could have gotten
more training in the 20-30 degree weather at home.

Adam -

There's no way around it - it has been nut bustingly cold in NY. That's not to say it's not colder
where you are, but either way it's been very demoralizing WRT training outdoors here. I don't know
any rider around here that has put in near the miles that they did the past 2 winters. I think
everyone got used to the mild winters, then got blind sided by this unrelenting cold.

On the positive side, the urine in the subways is freezing so NYC doesn't smell nearly as much of
piss as it normally does.

Thanks, Ronde Chimp

It's those small things in life we really savor. Indeed.
