Notwithstanding the jokes, I feel sorry for him. He was a nonconformist - oh well, the world is full of them. May he rest in peace, and I pray that he is in a happier place now.

Actually he wanted to be a truck driver again but he was afraid that all the trucking jobs were going to be outsourced to India.

That thong sawing back and forth between his legs, cutting into regions never meant to be cut into probably didn't help either....

Who was it that said that the thong was invented as torture - if you didn't talk, you'd end up sawing yourself in half as you walked?

Just damn.

If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

That's what I thought, that the thong bicyclers were one in the same. I went looking for him, but have had no luck so far. Just nude riders:

Not the same guy, but I hope you appreciate the effort.

"An autopsy found no alcohol or drugs in Gottschalk's body."

Well, there's your problem!

If ever a guy needed a few brewskis or tokes to chill out, this was the guy.

He must have bought into John Walters' rhetoric. A sad case.

He might have meant that driving a truck while suicidal was too dangerous for other people.

In which case, he did the best he could.

*He said he knew of a place at Big Bend that he could step off and not have any more job worries.*

You can step off a place at Big Bend and land in the Democratic welfare state?

I do hope his family replaces the seat to his bike before sellling the thing.

What he wasn't arrested for indecent exposure?

Oh - I forgot - he is a "politically correct" pervert scum.

If I came over one of those little hills in S.A. and saw his A$$ in front of me, my SUV would have no trouble.

Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

"He didn't want to go back to driving a truck. He thought it was too dangerous."

Suicide is dangerous too.

Is this the same thong dude that was posted earlier in the year?

Yes. There aren't that many thong wearing exhibitionist bicyclists in Texas...

He committed suicide when he realized that the state of Texas was going to check his tailpipe for exhaust emissions...
