That's it!  My wife and son are fobidden to use my Garmin.  They can't even put it on the charger correctly.  I didn't even get a mile into my run when the battery died.  Now I'm reduced down to tracing my route on GoogleEarth.  What is this?  The dark ages?  I'm far too important of a runner to be tracing my route on GoogleEarth!

How dare they!

From Rhett on Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 13:51:49 from 170.215.58.122

I like the new picture Burt. I missed the race report on that. How did it go?

From TylerS on Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 14:01:57 from 66.119.143.249

You could always go out and drive it too? I have to do that sometimes, just to go out and pick up clothes that I drop. I have a shirt, head lamp and water bottle waiting for me. At least I hope they are still there???? Good job Burt

From Burt on Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 14:05:49 from 98.167.151.26

It went pretty good.

I just read the race report. Nice pace and you scored Blue Bell ice cream at the end. I'd say that makes it a great race.

From Kelli on Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 17:58:51 from 71.219.83.91

Hey, at least yours is working WHEN charged!!!!

From Teena on Sun, Apr 26, 2009 at 00:33:30 from 67.177.20.13

FORBIDDEN????

Oh man ... my hubby would NEVER dare use that word with me!!! :)

From Vickie on Sun, Apr 26, 2009 at 16:44:59 from 98.167.151.26

Hi. This is the "wife". I just want you all to know who bought the Garmin my DH is complaining about. ME !! And "Forbidden" is a word he has never dared to use before with me. He was hoping to get away with it in here with all of you. Fat chance.

From Teena on Sun, Apr 26, 2009 at 17:05:53 from 67.177.20.13

YES!!!

You are SO BUSTED Burt!!!

I can tell that me and Vicki would get along great!! :)

(Trying to talk all tough for your blogging friends Burt ... come on now!)

From Eric Day on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 10:42:12 from 189.192.171.112

Go ahead Burt, tell them who has the last word in your house, go ahead, you tell them.

From Nevels on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 11:04:30 from 131.204.15.93

Hey Burt, check out Eric's blog from today; the civil engineer in you will appreciate it.

From Burt on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 11:42:37 from 68.76.197.194

So yo el que lleva los pantalones, verdad Eric?!And like a spoiled brat I took it with me today.

From Eric Day on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 11:48:31 from 189.192.171.112

Decimos que tenemos la ultima palabra en la casa: "SI, mi amor"....way to go Burt, you show them who is the man. It sounds so Simpson.

From Kelli on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 13:15:25 from 71.219.83.91

It is not fair to speak a language I do not understand. I barely get English, now you have to throw in the Spanish. I am going to get a dictionary so I know what you are saying!!!

Vicki, make Burt do some more lunges for you, like a few miles of them. That will keep him quiet.

From Burt on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 13:22:02 from 68.76.197.194

Oh, I doubt it, Kelli. And I thought you were a teacher? Teacher=know-it-all

From Kelli on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 13:30:20 from 71.219.83.91

This teacher knows NO Spanish. My kids learn it at school. but they do not know what you are saying either.

I am a dumb teacher, out of practice.

From Vickie on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 13:53:43 from 98.167.151.26

Burt says, " He wears the pants"

and I'm a little sketchy on what Eric said. Something about having the last word.

From Eric Day on Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 13:58:23 from 189.192.171.112

Vickie, getting very close. Burt, look out, you may end up sleeping with the dog outside... ;)
