Tour de France Update - Quinn Simmons

Scott Ganschow @teamfreak16 (44671) • Denver, Colorado 26 Jul

The 2026 edition of the Tour de France is over. Despite the dominance of winner Tadej Pogacar, this Tour was entertaining by my book. A couple weeks ago I wrote about a few U.S. riders, so I figured I would update how they did....

rakski @rakski (158598) • Philippines 26 Jul

Recently, I have been experiencing muscle cramps. It can be one leg, sole of the feet or sometimes one or two digits of the foot. I'm not sure if it's just dehydration, pack of exercise or something else. It's not easy to have...

The Horse I get cramps too. Exactly as you describe. I stumble into the kitchen, drink some water (or Gatorade if I have it), and maybe lick a dash of salt. .

April @thislittlepennyearns (68656) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 26 Jul

There's Always a Rainbow at Disney World

Jeff Moffitt @moffittjc (129326) • Gainesville, Florida 25 Jul

I've said for years that Disney somehow can control the weather. For example, every time I go to Disney there always seems to be a full moon in the sky overhead at night. Always. I'm not sure how they do it, but I'm not...

Who wears short shorts?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (60730) 24 Jul

I never gave this a lot of thought before, with the exception of being rather glad that my lovely daughters never wore really short shorts. I was forbidden to wear them--between having two aunts who were Catholic nuns, as well as...

The Horse Fashions change. When I first got to UCSB in the early '80s, all the young gals wore really short shorts. By '85 or so, baggy shorts we the thing. Now I see the young gals wearing really short shorts again.

Bikinis?

Toni @toniganzon (78106) • Philippines 24 Jul

I started wearing a bikini only in my late 20s. Only when I had my son. Only when I was already married. Never when I was single. Why? I wasn't comfortable showing my body in public. I was never that confident. And I didn't...
