Went to Green Bay over the weekend.
Did a little running while I was there.
Great course.
Great weather.
Great crowds.
Drive was a bit long!
Last Thursday was the TC 1 Mile.
So, it was a tough race on Sunday!

Ran the Get in Gear 10k on Saturday.
Could have been worse.
It snowed a couple of years ago!
So the bit of rain we had this year wasn't too bad.

Dear Roger Ebert.
Might I also remind you of another great artist.
A man who made a famous statement concerning distinguished
elders and the reckless denials they make.
Maybe you've heard of him.

When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong. Arthur C. Clarke - Profiles of the Future (1962)

Just so he doesn't think I forgot.
And I didn't, I assure you.
On this very day.
April 20th, 1979.
The current President, Jimmy Carter, was attacked.
By a bunny rabbit.
Well, that's no ordinary rabbit.
That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on!

Ran the Human Race.
After focusing on skiing all winter, I don't have any speed.
As shown by the 45 second slip from two years ago.
It was a fun race!
The Get in Gear is on the 24th of next month.
Hope I'm in shape for that!

235 years ago on this day Patrick Henry gave a speech.
The reason he gave the speech?
The British were amassing an army on our shores.
They were amassing an army because Americans were protesting.
The form of the protest was the Boston Tea Party.

Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance, by lying supinely on our backs, and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Patrick Henry - March 23, 1775

The Birkie is done.
Wow.
That's rough.
Spent the next day laying on the couch watching movies.
Not because I needed to.
But it seemed like a good excuse!
The St. Patrick's Day Human Race is on the 28th.

Which means that the Birkie is in three weeks.
Hope you've been training!

Welcome to 2010.
Good luck!
Like rats fleeing a sinking ship.
We already know they didn't do any good.
We know we shouldn't trust their promises.
Where are all the jobs that were created?
Even this guy knows this wasn' a good idea.

Need to see how your motorcycle goes together?
Check out this.
Now you kids are probably saying to yourselves,
hey, I'm gonna go out and GET THE WORLD BY THE TAIL
and wrap it around and pull it down and put it in my pocket.
Well I'm here to tell you that you're probably going to find,
as you go out there,
that you're not going to amount to JACK SQUAT…

Eh. Ahem.
The rumors of my death, apparently, are greatly exaggerated.
I am, as they say, back.
I only have a small update today, though.
But the waiting is over.
I'll be updating regularly again.
After all that fiber…
Oh-my.
Check out these new pics.

The problem is that the punishments in this country do not deter.
So, here's the plan:
Bring back "The Spanish Inquisition"
Nobody expects them.
Fear is one of their primary weapons.
Fear and suprise, are their primary weapons.
And an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.
And their red uniforms.
Or, you know, we could just start burning people at the stake.
That would be a pretty good deterrent, I bet.

Inside the fingers of my glove,
  Inside the bones of my right hand
  Inside it's colder than the stars.  Sting - Inside
Thus we may know that there are five essentials for victory:
  1. He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.
  2. He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.
  3. He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all its ranks.
  4. He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.
  5. He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign.  Sun Tzu - The Art of War…

Eh. It's 2:31 AM.
Happy New Year.
Finals are done.
Christmas is over.
New Years is over.
You know what this means?
It means, gentle reader, that I'm sleeping in.
Eight glorious hours of sleep.
There's nothing anyone can do about it.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
