The New Cannibal

If you have not watched the Tour de France this year, featuring Lance Armstrong riding for his sixth consecutive win, you are missing a special moment in sports history. I Am Not the New Cannibal, Says Armstrong [Reuters.com]. The scene of Lance, starting last, snaking up the massively crowded, narrow, people-lined switchbacks of l'Alpe d'Huez yesterday was absolutely amazing. And his life story (cancer survivor, dating Sheryl Crow, etc.) is equally inspiring.
