Go Lance Go! He finished second in the Prologue, less than two seconds behind a 23-year-old already being hailed as a superstar in the making. A very good result for him. Man, I want him to win number six. I hope that he bet Sheryl Crow that if he wins, she'll have to vote for Bush.

And for the benefit of John Flory: "Lance" is Lance Armstrong, and "the Prologue" refers to the time trial which kicks off the Tour de France, of which Lance is a five-time winner. I think you know who Sheryl Crow is, but you may not know that Lance has been dating her.  ¶ 23:06
