I've heard a lot about this race... there's the challenge of getting in (it sells out every year), the challenge of the weather (warm or cold? how many leaves will be on the trail, hiding the rocks?), and the challenge...
When I was a working stiff, our company had the benefit of staying connected via the intranet. It was an in-house creation that needed a lot of help to be truly beneficial to employees. They were working on it, but...
Our canned chicken lunch was good. I ate one chicken breast and the rest of it ended up being eaten by Damon. I think that is good. When Fuller and I went to Atlanta on Friday we were treated to...

I'm heading out to Las Vegas on Wednesday and my mind has been going nuts making lists and and trying to make sure I have everything I could need. One of my biggest concerns was footwear. I know a lot...
