A man who died after a pie-eating competition said ‘‘jeez, this chilli pie is hot’’ in his final moments Read more: http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/queensland/man-dies-eating-pie-in-pub-state-of-origin-contest-20130718-2q75o.html#ixzz2ZS5U3b00 http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/queensland/man-dies-eating-pie-in-pub-state-of-origin-contest-20130718-2q75o.html

Similar to what Jono said about what happened last night... I think I saw in cyclingnews or somewhere that the BMC team bosses basically to him said since your GC chance is down the gurgler just roll thru the TT and save some energy to try for a stage win in the mountains. He has now managed to lose sufficient time that he would be no danger to anyone in the top 25 even so it should improve his chances of being allowed in a breakaway. With TJ away out front yesterday there would have been no pressure or really any point in him having a crack after his initial attempt failed.
 
Can someone give me a Stalkbook tip?

When checking out friends lists of people you're not friends with, do you only get a few shots to look at the list?
Obvious example: I checked out the lists of a few people a few times, but now I can't see their friends. Is that automatic, or has some alarm gone off that they're being stalked, and they've changed a setting?

Well, from the hottest July day on record, to a really farkin cold one (it was 7.2 in the city at 4 o'clock). In case anyone's wondering, it's way off the coldest July day, which was 4.4 in 1901. I'm such a geek. Ha.

Today's trivia: dogs, and their relatives, are one of the few animals on the planet that have dedicated eyebrow muscles, which is why their faces are so expressive, unlike cats, who don't have the muscles.

The theory goes that, due to their pack existence, a wider range of facial expressions increases their communication 'vocab'.

Ya see, this is the type of thing that happens when I can't ride me bike. HA.

But that's why we love you.

A geek who can SMASH CNUTS.

An unorthodox but stunning combination.

There have been some changes in Facebook privacy lately - perhaps these people have bumped up the security on their profile so you can no longer see their friends.

My bigger dog is a goofball who is friendly to nearly all dogs EXCEPT black ones with hairy faces - he's really wary of them like he can't work out how to deal with them, even if they're giving other "play" signals. He's ok with labradors but not with black kelpies or black longhaired German shepherds. My wife suggested that he can't properly work out the expressions of hairy black faces - would fit in with what you're saying since you can't see their eyebrows move.
 
I looked into the face of a chihuahua recently, and it was like looking into the cold dead eyes of a psychopath. The most evil ****** eyebrows I ever did see. It was like gazing into the abyss of Hell..

Thanks. However, I logged out, then was able to view my own friends several times
 
If Voigt wasn't going the long way he might be half a chance. Is there any danger he could ever ride in a straight line?! it ***** me :)
