Go POSTAL!!!!
Team USPS (The "Postals") just took the team time trial in the Tour du France. Second place team is 30 seconds back, time for the 69 km course was 1:18:27 for an average speed of 32.8 MPH.
USPS team member Hugo Pena takes the Yellow Jersey, first Columbian in the history of Le Tour to do so. Lance moves up in the styandings, too...

2. I'm waiting for the mountains!
So Lance can mock them all again by looking over his shoulder as if to say, "You guys coming? I didn't think so."

Go Lance! :D

6. lol! actually, you're on to something
Well, if you had said 'no wonder stamps keep going up.'

The reason they decided to sponsor tour de france was that the execs wanted a big boondoggle is cuz it's soooooo friggin' LONG that they get a 2 week trip (yearly, as opposed to the olympics---what a waste of money THAT sponsorship was, too, but alot of execs got great trips).

Money squandering bastards.

Hey, who can blame 'em.
