I used to run in them, when I was less than 150. I liked them. I am a forefoot striker.

With that new pill you won't have enough time to watch three movies in one night.

Apropos of nothing, I ran in Nike Frees for the first time on Saturday. Calves. Very. Sore.

I just finished reading Born to Run, where there is lots of talk about barefoot running and how much running shoes are the devil.

I think I'd like to buy me a pair of Nike Frees.

I ran my half-marathon in the pouring rain on Sunday morning and my calves got very sore from lifting my heavy wet feet for 13.1 miles. Seriously. It's still kind of hard to go down stairs.

Overall, apart from being absolutely drenched and freezing after I stopped, the race went well. I'm going to do another one in the fall, I think.

do you eat them dry or mix them up into sludge and eat them? The consistency of the sludge is a bit much for me.

I have the same problems. I now just eat them dry and sprinkled on salads. The sludge is too much, man.

I don't normally respond to posts twice, but the PB Jewish joke thread reminded me of the proper answer:

You should build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen,
Right in the middle of the town.
A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below.
There would be one long staircase just going up,
And one even longer coming down,
And one more leading nowhere, just for show.

You should fill your yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks
For the town to see and hear.
(Insert)Squawking just as noisily as they can. (End Insert)
With each loud "cheep" "swaqwk" "honk" "quack"
Would land like a trumpet on the ear,
As if to say "Here lives a wealthy man."

You should see your wife looking like a rich man's wife
With a proper double-chin.
Supervising meals to her heart's delight.
I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock.
Oy, what a happy mood she's in.
Screaming at the servants, day and night.

You should biddy biddy bum.

Jim Beam's still under $20 a bottle. Unless this drugmaker has unheard-of low R&D, I say short that dog.

Spend a bunch of it staying in hospitals, mostly paid for by my insurance so this does not make me destitute-er, then have my parents come stay with me. Oh, I'd give up driving and wouldn't walk unless with someone, like a parent. I would limit my activities to things they will put up with, BOTH of them.

This does not sound fun. Do you have any other ideas?

Also, someone who is cooler than me (i.e. has the appropriate hook up) needs to send you some "special" brownies or something.

life at ground zero
 
living in an economically impacted town isn't what you'd think. I know a few people out of work, but they keep their heads low- and no one I know well has gotten the ax-

but now and then I see something that highlights it- like I go to this physical therapist when I have running injuries- my guy is the top- i haven't been to him for 5 lucky years- but today I was back-

5 years ago he was swamped. every table full and he used assistants for everything he could. he is tied to an ortho surgeon, so to get to him I have to go throught the sham of going to the doctor as a gate keeper, "Well, you have a severe hamstring pull. surgery isn't warrented, but you need therapy."

But as I'm waiting for the doctor to come in my exam room, and asthe doctor was with me, and as I left, the therapist was hanging around just bullshitting- this is 8:15-9.

I asked wtf-

he said lots of people out of work and have lost insurance AND those people with a job are not even considering anything elective and are living with pain rather than risk taking a few hours off three days a week.

it's that sort thing that really highlights it.

Lines like this mean you should add this to the princess bed TV schedule.

The writers always put some crazy funny lines in the script. My 2 faves last night were "How is it you two don't have a show on Bravo" and "I'm pretty sure my cat's been reading my diary," neither of which are particularly funny out of context.
