That quote doesn’t mean anything in context to today’s link. It just sounds cool. Maybe it should’ve been the qotd. O, well…

“I get a ticket, I pay it. You get a ticket, you pay it. They get a ticket, they don’t pay no ticket, and that’s why these free-loading foreign diplomats should be dragged out of their cars and beaten like the renegade outlaws they are.”

Amgen Tour of California 2009
Amgen Tour of California 2009 – Prologue

I forgot to mention that the cycling season is starting to ramp up. Here’s a shot from this year’s Tour of California. It’s Tom Boonen running the TT. I just love this guy.
I was looking for a field sprint, but it seems the photogs on Flickr don’t have too many shots of a stage finish. So, here’s Boonen cranking for decent TT finish.
If you look at the 2009 Tour of California starting line up, you’ll find an amazing mass of professionals. Besides the Belgian rocket, Boonen, you’ll see Lance Armstrong suited up for Astana as he begins his climb back into the professional cycling saddle. You have Levi Leipheimer leading this years tour. Then you have the british sprint phenom, Mark Cavendish, taking wins in field sprints. Boonen stop this guy! Lots of Americans: Hincapie, Landis, Hamilton (Aren’t these guys banned for using banned substances?) It’s actually a monster Tour. I should’ve set my Tivo.

I can’t believe I forgot to post about the technical Oscar awards. These are better than Sunday’s broadcast because it’s all about the nerdy stuff. And it’s hosted, lately, by a hottie. This year’s host was Jessica Biel. Yeah! She’s pretty hot! But not comparable to when Rachel McAdams hosted it a few years back.
