Tomorrow, the Stanley Cup arrives in Anchorage with Scott Gomez for a 24 hour visit. There will definitely be a picture of the Slat Rat with the Cup!

TiVo is so HOT! And TiVo and The Tour de France is over the top!

I've been totally immersed in Tour coverage - which is live here from 4:00 AM to 7:30 AM. I don't worry too much about the first hour or two. But I'm all over the last hour and a half.

However, I also have to get ready for work (sigh...). So, this morning, I Tivo'd the last 1/2 hour of Tour coverage. Man what a payoff! I watched Beloki's amazing crash - I've had that very crash on a motorcycle on a freshly oiled road. Armstrong's on-the-spot quick thinking cross country jaunt that kept him in right in the race was amazing. The crash knocked Beloki out of the race - with a broken right elbow, right wrist, and right leg. And trust me, when I replayed the crash, it was very clear just how incredibly hard he hit on his right side.

I also TiVo'd yesterday's drop dead Alp d'Huez stage (even I am not going to get up at 4:00 AM on a Sunday - even if it is the Tour). This is shaping up to be an epic Tour!
