In a surprise move sure to dissapoint fans of hardcore hyperbole, Rabbit Bartholomew has stepped down as ASP president.
“After deep consideration, I have decided not to seek a fifth term as ASP President,” Bartholomew said.
Pretty interesting quote from Rab there - who knew that ASP President was an elected office? It's going to be hard to replace Rabbit, but in a popular election you have to reckon Occy would take it by a mile. I reckon Occy embodies all the likeable characteristics of Will Ferrell's George W. Bush impression (Fun-lovin' folksy man o' the people) , with 99% less Seppo, Jingoistic bullshit.
I kind of liked George Bush. I kind of like Occy. I think Lewis, despite his obvious writing skills and razor sharp wit, might be one of those damn bay area liberals that I love to hate. Hey Lewis who would you rather knock back a couple of v.b.’s with? Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi or Dubyaa and Occy?
P.s. How do those weirdos in Bolinas feel about your observations of the pro tour? When are you going to begin observations of the pro mountain bikers on mt. tam?
