They also recycle articles about every six months -- how many times have
we seen "Legs to Die For!!"?

Along the same theme -- twisting the msg of the yellow bracelet -- there
is the black "Live Wrong" bracelet available at drunkcyclist.com
(http://www.drunkcyclist.com/images/dc/livewrong.jpg).  (WARNING: this
site is *really* non-PC.  It is a crude, often offensive, often very
funny and smart mix of cycling, pornography (mostly in the form of
links to other sites), and aggressively leftist, anti-Bush politics.)
