Ohhh my favourite so far..... *Giggling*

Ha!
I want a Ricco Barbie (and then learn voodoo).
Staring at the swim team gets you killed by a gang of dancing ninja men who know how to twirl.

very interesting… can Joe run bottles at Paris-Roubaix?

Well, with his build he'd be useless on climbs.
P-R might be the only race in which he’d be helpful.

You can totally see
that Joe has no mercy for men in limegreen speedos.

and if I am seeing it correctly it looks as though majope gave little Rico a
mini roll of socks for that speedo.

That Barbie is the perfect Ricco. All snakelike and weird
with the over sized ugly white sunglasses. Ha!

This always brightens Monday's
but Joes looks an awful lot like this guy
Look, it's a bird...no, it's a plane....oh never mind it's just fucking balloon boy

The Ricco shades and mini-ProCycling were masterful details.

I love this!
Noting your attention to detail, I’m wondering about the background… it looks eerily familiar….

I Googled "beaches new south wales"
and found the pic on a free-use site. Never having been there, I’m taking it on faith that it really is a beach in New South Wales…

I'm thinking if I walk up my beach in NSW I'll see him
Seriously, this is my view! Very strange…. but if we see Rico we’ll run him out of town (village) ;)

Today is really hot with a savage wind blowing, so whilst I often think it’s heaven on earth, it has its bad days too…

the tan lines are a great detail
and it is so hard to get rid of them…

I'm hoping rubbing alcohol will do it.

In Oz they'll never think tan lines are caused by cycling
They’ll just think he’s a farmer…

too funny – even if I’m not familiar with Joe.
by Katiek on Nov 16, 2009 10:13 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
A little background for those who aren't so familiar with Joe:
Cobra (also called Cobra Command) is the fictional nemesis of the G.I. Joe team in the Hasbro action figure toylines G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero and G.I. Joe: Sigma 6, as well as their related media.

Do you think Joe knows about our gun laws?
They’re really only used for ’roos loose in the top paddock. Even snakes are protected… although a cobra could be deemed feral in this context…

Back in the day
Joe wouldn’t have cared about your gun laws. Today, though, he’s probably Peacekeeper Joe and his gun only fires paintballs or tranquilizer darts.
The latter, probably, as I just looked over and see that Ricco has keeled over on the beach. Which is, oddly enough, now being attacked by Daleks. There’s a reason I try to finish the week’s Barbie Barbie before my kid gets home from school.

LOL! Your whimsy is priceless...
Very thoughtful of Joe to use a tranquiliser gun… much less traumatic for BB..

They cancelled my train, I was flustered and in a foul mood, and then this!
I feel so much better now, thanks majope!

I'm slightly surprised
that they ever produced a bottle-bleached, crop-haired Ken in the first place. Good to see that he has found his proper place in the world.

He was part of the very short-lived attempt at a hip-hop line.
Flavas. Did not go over well. According to one article, they’re the dolls the My Scene dolls buy their weed from.

Just want to agree with everyone here,
this searies is the best ever and this episode is even better than the ones before.
Thanks majope! There isn’t much that could make me smile in Helsinki in November (and after a hard day at work with only two hours of sleep last night), but this has made my day. Truly priceless.

Majope you are killing me with all the giggling being done! Superb!
I'm ready for this road season to wrap up. Bring on Cross!

Majope, i know you're always full of new ideas...
but in case you’re searching for another angle, BB’s hometown, Inverell is having problems with bushfires at the moment. (Much bush has been burned, but at this point no lives threatened if that makes a difference) ;)

Hmmm...
as long as it doesn’t turn tragic, topical is good…thanks for the idea!

I think GI Joe was the trigger for me..
his orange is the same as our State Emergency Service volunteers. So far there’s no suggestion of human tragedy at Inverell although there are no doubt roos loose in the top paddock…
