Road Tyre Pressure?

For some reason "The Boss" doesn't seem to count a quick spin on the road bike as "out on your bike again!!" so I've been sneaking out on a Friday evening after work for an hour and a half!
Anyway (confession out of the way!) just wondering what tyre pressure I should be running in skinny tyres bearing in mind my not so skinny ass?
Some people like them hard as rocks, I go for 100psi in the rear and 90-95 in the front for a small bit of give.

And if that works for me it should work for any of ya'll, weight wise I mean....
be careful you can only get up that high with a tubular tyre. If you tried that on a ordinary tyre it would blow. 100- 110 is about right for ordinary tyres.

Yeah, Oscar the bender.... look at him with his steady, desirable job..... How Gay is that?
Wearing a shirt, n' stuff.... How camp....
Me and Lynchy are sharing a room at the Roc.....we can run around in each others underwear....
Continental Grand Prix 4000 S @ 120 psi

According to conti
"With the new Black Chili Compound rolling resistance is reduced by 26%, grip is increased by 30% and mileage is increased by 5%"

- in the real world, they do seem to roll faster and are grippy enough for when I forget that I don't have disc brakes on the road bike!
