I think that most people, unless they are sociopaths, rationalize all the bad stuff they do. I mean, evil people don't think they are evil-- I think in their head they are doing the right thing or they are entitled to do the wrong thing.
When I worked at Penney's, several employees who got caught stealing from the company or from customers seemed to think that they were entitled because Penney's didn't pay them enough, or they were panicked by money problems. These were people I knew and liked, at least well enough. They were "normal" The one I was closest with actually used my associate number as part of the scam.
great rider, but also an utterly ruthless bastard
I think this is probably true. All the people around him seem either super careful/subserviant or they eventually become enemies. I can totally see how a world class athlete, but especially a cyclist, could become an over the top control freak.

I just finished reading that wank, and sit here boggled. Though I now need to make an icon that says, "Anakin Skywalker. He knows batshit crazy."
ARE YOU CALLING ME A SODOMITE?????
that is one hot cup of crazy right there.
I'm going to arrive at Comic Con on Saturday, but won't be selling books because I have none to sell. I could order some author copies overnighted, but then I'd have to deal with money, and change, and taxes.
I have fans?
It's at 2pm California time, Lee.
