    I've survived shit that would have killed four average men (over forty), and came back to be a legend in my own time as pertains to strength and endurance at the age of fifty six; even I can't fucking believe it! *end conceitful indulgence*

    And no aspect of my survival ever turned out to be redeemable for anything in the eyes of those who saw and knew me.

    My final point would have to be sarcastic. Finally some justice in the world. The guy who cheated to win a bike race has been called to the carpet. And not just any carpet; fuckin' Oprah's carpet.

    I've watched interviews with the psychopathic serial killer Ted Bundy. When I watched Lance Armstrong being interviewed, he reminded me so much of Bundy, it was freaky. I believe Armstrong is a psychopath. He has missing connections in his thinking that are indicative of psychopathology. He's a creep and I'd prefer he disappear.

    He got cancer, and when they told him he was going to die, he won the Tour De France 7 times in a row. What do I think of him? I think that's how I would like to live when faced with mortality.

    How do I feel about him using steroids? They're chemicals that increase your testosterone. He's a professional athlete and they are professional by trying their best. The medias reaction to them is hysterical nonsense. They should probably be banned because of health risks, but they're as pure to sporting as exercise is.

    And he lied? Of course he lied. If we tried to approach this like adults rather than shaming athletes everytime this comes out about an athlete, which is about every professional one, he probably wouldn't have had to for the sake of protecting his career and life.

    His lying has ruined other peoples careers and so also partially their lifes. People that knew he was cheating at the time and were trying to make that known to everyone were sued and ridiculed. I am glad there is some justice in this world for real in this case. No sarcasm at all. These kind of practices are disgusting and yes they came forth from the urge to win by whatever means. When there are rules in top sport you have to comply. When you cheat that is one thing, when you try to cover that up the way Armstrong did you deserve no second change in the sport and should be severely punished where it hurts people like him the most: in his wallet indeed. So I am glad he could not hide it any longer and have much respect for the people who tried to bring his malpractices to our attention.

    He's an asshole. I'd like to hear what Sheryl Crow has to say about him.

    I played sports and was damn good at pitching fast pitch softball and even better at basketball(brag-brag), but I can't understand this super intense desire to win at all costs,even screwing up other peoples lives over winning. If one can't do it with ones natural talent,one does not cheat and lie so openly without there being something very wrong with the 'brain wiring'. So,he's a cheater and a liar. Not a good way to live his life.
