No Spin Zone Started a new thread Marc de Reuver
1/27/2012 5:48am I wonder why the GPs seem to be physically easier on riders. Calimero was fast at Southwick, but got pooped fast. At Lierop, he went 1-3 for the overall win. What's the difference? Is it just pace? Or was it humidity or heat or something else?

No Spin Zone Started a new thread How much tax money will you save?
1/24/2012 5:51pm http://taxcut.barackobama.com/ Click the link and fill in the basics and you'll get an idea how much you'll save under Obama. It quotes McCain's numbers, too, although I wouldn't be surprised if those are inaccurate for obvious reasons. Still, I save $1000 per year under Obama and $0 under McCain.
