thanks for taking the time to type a °

From The Quiet Pirate on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 12:44:31 from 152.26.59.252

You're easy?

From Merri on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 12:49:38 from 160.7.252.148

Now that's the Burt I remember going to the Halloween dance with.

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 12:50:42 from 206.19.214.144

allie - thanks for taking the time to cut and paste that ° into your comment. .°)

QP - I've been told that. Take it sleezy.

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 12:51:29 from 206.19.214.144

Ha Merri! I was just looking at that picture yesterday.

From rAtTLeTrAp on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 12:52:00 from 69.99.231.17

A little 5k. How far is that?

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 13:14:09 from 206.19.214.144

Trap - The distance isn't little. You have to be little to run it. And don't go to Merri's blog, whatever you do.

From The Quiet Pirate on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 13:30:58 from 152.26.59.252

It's not the distance that matters, or that's what I've been told. It's more about form and speed.

From your photo we can see how you've made your forehead aerodynamic. Less drag...good thinking.

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 13:33:47 from 206.19.214.144

QP - I tell myself that every day.

From rAtTLeTrAp on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 14:29:15 from 69.99.231.17

So, big guy, how did you get in?

From RAD on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 14:48:49 from 98.202.17.113

"a little 5K" so is that just under 5000 miles?

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 14:50:51 from 206.19.214.144

Trap - size is relative.

RAD - 5000 meters.

From ChrisM on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 15:08:08 from 82.26.207.83

three-hundred and sixty five degrees, burning down the house...

From Rye on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 18:27:38 from 75.174.2.46

Your blog pictures are confusing me Burt. Will the real Burt please show himself! Wait.... we don't want to see that.

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 18:45:59 from 206.19.214.144

Chris - that's the only part of that song I know.

Rye - There's not much to see. Wait. That's not what I meant. How now brown cow. What are we talking about?

From Chad Robinson on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 18:49:05 from 67.136.62.186

"That's what she said"

From Burt on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 18:51:44 from 206.19.214.144

Ok, no more comments on my blog for the rest of the day!

From Chad Robinson on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 18:56:26 from 67.136.62.186

I was going to say it earlier but I resisted. I couln't let a second chance go. I will stop commenting now...

From Scott Ensign on Thu, May 12, 2011 at 23:31:20 from 63.226.92.167

pee wee herman?????

From Burt on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 02:00:16 from 72.223.90.79

So now I look like Pee Wee Herman? Hmmph!

From DaleG on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 02:09:25 from 174.52.230.9

It's Bizarro Burt!

From runningafterbabies on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 09:42:29 from 71.195.219.247

So what's with the .02?

From Burt on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 09:56:30 from 72.223.90.79

0.02 miles. I just type what Garmin tells me to. Don't hate the player. Hate the game.

From I Just Run on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 13:27:37 from 67.79.11.242

Hey Burt.... Have you gone to Merri's Blog and seen her profile picture ...? NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!

I mean the Spurs jersey :)

From Merri on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 14:36:27 from 160.7.252.148

Burt & I used to go to halloween dances together but he broke off those because of my jersey.

From I Just Run on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 14:39:13 from 67.79.11.242

Need a stand-in..?

From Burt on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 14:44:40 from 206.19.214.144

Preston - I only saw the new profile picture for a brief second before I vomited all over my computer screen.

From I Just Run on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 14:47:43 from 67.79.11.242

Burt,

I can't believe you have such BAD taste in women...I think Merri is beautiful.

From ChrisM on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 15:00:24 from 82.26.207.83

Poor Merri

What a nasty thing for Burt to say on the SPUR of the moment...

From Burt on Fri, May 13, 2011 at 15:03:20 from 206.19.214.144

Ugh. Merri is Plain Jane. I don't know what I ever saw in her. Maybe because she was so much taller than me.

Chris - It was verbal vomit about my actual vomit.
