Wednesday...

This past Wednesday was a cut day for The Scott and BR Cycling Team. My plane landed in Buffalo about 845am. My Mommie was there waiting for me to come through the gate as she always does. We rush to get my suitcase and I am trying to fumble with my laptop to listen to the radio show. To my luck, I have a MACbook and I was going to have to download something. So my mom and I rush to my Step Dad's shop. We call him along the way to listen on the computer. We get there about 930am. I was hoping we didn't miss it. So there is my mom, my step dad, and I all standing around his computer waiting. Finally Scott starts talking about the QMDC and the cut. Well Scott said that they were going to call the person. And when he said that my step dad's office phone started to ring. We started laughing. I checked my cell phone, to make sure they weren't trying to call me. The phone was out of service or the number changed. Scott talked about how I decided not to talk my $5,000 scholarship. My thinking behind it is its totally optional. I would rather help those who are already raising the money, with doing what I can to help them. Whether it be putting fliers on cars and handing them out. Going to their dinners, taking part in a singles auction. I would rather see that money go to those who have been working so hard for many months. To be honest, I am positive that I would not have been able to raise the additional $5,000 that I would have needed to secure my place in the QMDC. That is allot of money to get in not allot of time. My goal is to raise the full $10,000 to secure my spot on the QMDC for 2009.  So Scott and BR tried a few more times in getting in contact with the person that was cut. Scott said that it was a guy who was to be cut, so I was safe this week. Now for the twist... since the person in question to be cut was not spoken to, there was no cut made... Does this mean that two cuts will take place again next week or was this a staged plan to build the suspense? I wonder...
