Trim the URL. groups.google.com/groups?selm=20c7afc9.031007-
0217.14e5a004%40posting.google.com might do the trick,
though it is long.

Of course, there's always tinyurl. http://tinyurl.com/3fkfm

No, urination was made impossible by a recent anti-urination
ray fired on us by an alien race that intends to invade as
soon as we'll all sick. What they don't know is that we'll
be "full of **** and vinegar"...

There was once, on The Comedy Channel (now defunct, replaced
by Comedy Central), a late night show which played clips of
really crappy movies, and had a talk-show-style discussion
of them. At least, I think that was the idea; I can only
remember one episode. I do remember the show focused on very
bad taste.

The one I remember showed a couple minutes of a movie in
which a guy urinated (hah! fit urination in this thread
TWICE!) through a knothole in a wooden fence, not knowing
that somebody was sleeping on the other side. The angry
awakened sleeper ripped off the offending protrusion, and
the now-stumpy urinator proceeded to attempt to retrieve his
missing part. A game of monkey-in-the-middle ensued, during
which they showed slo-mo close-ups of the missile in play,
tumbling through the air.

The memory of that scene bothers me occasionally, and I
wonder what the name of the show was, and what the movie
was. And mostly, I wonder why I keep remembering it...

I know dozens of people with Ganglian Cysts, none of which
even ride bikes. Yet, I know no cyclist who have one. So,
off hand I would say there is no direct connection - in my
experience anyway. My wife has a pretty nasty one, and she
has not ridden a bike since grade school. Her's gets better
or worse usually depending on how much she uses her hand.
Some times there seems to be know reason it is worse. And
ya, there is no real cure. Everyone I know who have had them
removed surically, has had them return. Kind of sucks.
