Utne rhymes with "chutney" and means "far out" in Norwegian. Someone doesn't really read The Utne Reader.

Betsy,
Are you watching the reality show on Bravo called "Flipping Out"? You need to see this one.

Okay... I'm a conservative-leaning spandex-wearing cyclist. Why do I like this show so much? And why ARE cyclists so hated? Joggers don't attract this much hatred...

@Dan if you had a pit bull you could have the trifecta of what seems to be our core listener base.

we're glad to have you spandex and all. just make sure not to sport these while out on your bike. or any time at all. i'm sure this guy regrets it. i know that my eyes do from seeing him in them last year.

I'm glad someone finally called you on your pitbull bashing! My pitbull is my best friend and wouldn't hurt a fly... in fact, I bet she's scared of flies! I also have a rather large golden retriever that is way more unpredictable than my pittie!

Kris, just put a shot of vodka in the V8, then Betsy won't think you're some weird vege-juice junky, just an alcoholic with a taste for Bloody Marys. Problem solved.

Also, I don't remember you guys ever bashing cyclists. Maybe it's hidden in the subtext of the show somewhere...

How about selling pinneaple bike shorts?

now you're talking.

Betsy wants a goat? Like this one?

I started wearing Spandex bike shorts this year. They're embarrassing as hell, but it's better than worrying if I'm showing too much through the leg of my loose-fitting regular shorts. :P

either way little is left to the imagination!

Betsy, I often buy junk food (ice cream, etc) in flavors that Rob doesn't like just so I can guarantee I'll get to eat it myself. Oatmeal raisin cookies? All mine. Only other being in the house that'd eat them is the dog...
