Time Trials or Mad Cows in the Feed Zone I don't want to meet college professors, captains of industry, old Olympians, or men of distinction. I have never imagined wasting my time on Vonnegut - who by the way got the bombing of Dresden completely wrong, but then he shares with Bush the tranquility that comes from not letting facts get in the way of a fantasy. I chose to live in the far more dusted up never land of Joe Mitchell, Liebling and Runyon. You can have the Chardonnay crowd; Labor has no use for such stuff. Besides I like nut case bike racers. But, them I like reefer, lesbian sex, and until it near killed me cheap gin. There are people who now play poker in fancy rooms who never knew the thrill of going broke when the rent was due. They call what they do tournament poker; I call it piffle. Time Trials are for people who want to do "their best." Bike racing is for sick bent infidels trying to escape such nonsense. Billy
