They Who Shall not be Named II (Page 48)

So... my oldest child who is clearly a middle schooler husband taught him this trick:  pretend to eat a bug from someone's eye... then pretend to puke, gagging, puffed out cheeks and all.  He has it down to a science and often makes other people do the gagging and puking part after he feeds them the eye bugs.  It's hilarious.  I made a photo essay of it here .

kns57 - 2007-11-15 10:18 AM For a moment there I thought I might be talking to myself. Hi Beth.

ok, so here's a funny story about losing clothes

when I was in college..........................i had gained a bunch of weight, lost a bunch of weight (yes this is relevant)

soooooo, the elastic in my half slip was all stretched out, being a poor college student, I decided to tuck the slip into the top of my pantyhose rather than incurring the expense of a new slip.

well, as I was walking on campus, feeling very sexy in my cute little outfit - all dressed up (for the life of me I cannot remember why I was dressed up)

anyway, I'm walking along - and all of the sudden, I feel something tickling my knees, then my calves, I look down {very puzzled look on my face} and realize that my slip is falling off of me

(keep in mind, I am in the middle of campus)

my thought process is something like this - hmmmmmm, I have two choices

1. pull my slip back up and tuck it back into to the top of my pantyhose or
2. continue walking and leave it behind

soooooo, i kept on walking until the slip dropped to the ground, stepped over it and never looked back

LMAO!!!!!

x2...give her a little BT love from the group...

Ooohh, look!  Our thread is getting wider again...do we need to start a new thread at around 50 pages?  At what page number did it become wide enough so we had to scroll last time?

Heh...by the way, I do my FIRST 5K next Thursday

Turkey Run (Run)
11/22/2007 in Minneapolis , Minnesota
RaceLink (1 Members) - RaceReports

Funny...I've done marathons, and now an Oly, but not one 5K to my name until this year...

kns57 - 2007-11-15 11:16 AM A little angel like that deserves a star. Here, I stole one from Dee for him. Oh wait, Dee doen't have a gold one yet. Where did he get it?

kns57 - 2007-11-15 10:13 AM

Oh Sparco, that means you have to run for speed and not for distance. Go sparco go.

sparco - 2007-11-15 10:33 AM

Uh...yeah...do you remember where I live?  Uh...37 and snow showers predicted for Thanksgiving morning...

If I were smart, I would be wearing my footsie pajamas, a plaid flannel shirt, a mink coat and my tuke...

Uh...haven't seen any type of photo race motivation like Hector got...

kns57 - 2007-11-15 11:09 AM Georgian so I gave it away. I'm scared now...

sparco - 2007-11-15 10:37 AM

What's speed?  Is that like crack?  Isn't the Twisnibbins thread like crack?

milaminute - 2007-11-15 10:38 AM

Oh no, don't be askeered (I'm a transplant, too).  I was just misbehaving (so what else is new?) and feeding off of the innuendo I *thought* I was reading in Beth's post... hee hee.

yeah, right - it will be cold - well, umm then - how about some pre-race pics

motivational pics - you are right - my bad!  (in my defense, this is the first time the race was mentioned on the thread - and Dee is missing - she is usually the one that promises motivational pics on my behalf - LOL)

(yes, I know, I'm posting and not working on my presentation - bad Beth, bad!)

http://silvercomet.tripod.com/ The silver comet is an old converted rail line. Closer to Atlanta it can be busy with street crossings and people walking thier dogs, but from about the 12 mile marker it opens up a lot and you can really put some miles on the bike. I have ridden it out to Rockmart, but it goes even farther now and I want to ride it. It take me almost 90 minutes to get to it from my house so I don't get to ride it very often. Mila is closer to it than I am.

I *heart* the Silver Comet Trail.  Great for looooonnngg training rides.  You can go pretty much all the way to the Alabama state line from Atlanta... but it's a little sketchy trail-wise (and feeling like you're in the middle of Deliverance nowhere) once you get past a certain point (Rockmart).  This is about the time you start seeing warning signs about being out there at your own risk because there's no water available.  I don't advocate riding any part of the SCT alone, incidentally.

Back again. Glad to see all the action on the thread. Max, you put my legs to shame! Sal, good luck on the 5K. Somehow I think you can handle it. A marathon before a 5K? That's just nuts! Hello Mila, Beth, Kendra and Tammy!!!

Well my chiro kind of rained on my parade. She did not like the feel of my ropy hip flexor at all. She fussed at me for ab work, she fussed at me for running. She told me all I was doing was laying muscle on top of knots that need to be gone before I can add strength. Also that I was most likely fraying the ends of my tendons by trying to stretch without the knots gone and that I could risk another tear. Well, eff!!!!!! WTF am I supposed to do?

kns57 - 2007-11-15 11:11 AM We are so glad that you have been reeled in. Welcome, welcome. How is Mrs. Max doing? Still getting her walks in with you on the loop?

tnickerson - 2007-11-15 10:46 AM

So work on your presentation now.  Make the boss happy so you keep your job that allows you to stay here and play!   Was that motivation?
