I got up at 4:45am, but only because I was working at my computer last night and kept falling asleep.  So I got up early to finish my work and hoped I'd have enough time for a run.  I did get it done, and I wanted to run longer than what I did, but I didn't have time.  I was using the Endomondo App on my phone to track my mileage, but I kept hearing her tell me, "GPS connection lost."  "GPS connection restored."  It only got exactly two miles of my 2.92 that I mapped out on MapMyRun.  I saw Jennifer Hall running this morning along the canal.  She was on my 3rd Ragnar team.  Didn't realize she lived so close to me.

your still on her?

From Kam on Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 09:27:40 from 68.66.163.179

coolio.

From Burt on Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 09:42:53 from 71.216.109.214

Kam, I assume you mean on here. Because this is a family friendly site, and I've never even looked at allie.

From allie on Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 09:46:26 from 97.117.90.140

burt -- read that comment more carefully. the humor is subtle, but its their.

From Burt on Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 09:49:54 from 71.216.109.214

I'm sure it is they're subtly, but I don't see it.

From allie on Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 09:50:41 from 97.117.90.140

irregardless.

From Nan on Sat, Sep 28, 2013 at 21:30:33 from 76.120.73.22

1000 lbs? Did you forget to take your rocket pack off before you stood on the scale?

From Burt on Sat, Sep 28, 2013 at 21:43:40 from 174.19.198.62

Who actually looks at the weight? The answer is Nan, not allie or Kam. Yes Nan, that included the upward thrust of the rocket pack.

From Tara on Sun, Sep 29, 2013 at 14:49:07 from 63.140.215.252

Some of my favorite people on here:)

I also didn't get the subtle humor, but It's got to be there. Allie and Kam share the same kind of sophisticated humor that I don't often get, but equally enjoy. I also assume there is some intended humor with all the misuse of grammar. Again, I need it spelled out. Maybe it's lost at this point, sorta like me. Also, 1000 pounds is a lot of weight.

Is Coolio one of your favorite people?
