I made the Detroit Free Press yesterday. I'm kind of a big deal. Check it out, my 15-minutes of fame was all used up on a quote at the bottom of the article.

On a side thought, when it comes to buying a new house. The most important thing is your deck size. Remember that, then watch the video.

Grandmas Marathon
Here is the Course Map
USATF rules (Click here and read rule #144.3b) prohibit the use of headphones and similar devices on the racecourse. This rule will be enforced during Grandma's Marathon, the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon, the William A. Irvin 5K, Fitger's 5K, the Park Point 5-Miler and the Grandma's Minnesota Mile. Runners should not bring these devices with them to the race. Those carrying/wearing these devices will be given the option to surrender their music device to a designated race official prior to entering the starting line gates. Surrendered devices will be properly packaged and mailed back to their rightful owners within two weeks after the race. Participants that choose not to surrender their device will be disqualified from the race and their finishing time will not appear in the official race results.

The only way I see this happening is if CJ permits us to use his Garmin. Other than that, if this sounds acceptable, let me know. We will then have to register with the marathon, make reservations for lodging or camping, contact relatives, etc.

I'm Bald!
I am not going to name names, but some people in our family are dying of old age, while others are balding and developing guts. No worries, because 08' is the year of health and wellness and change is possible. As the former chief editor of Men's Health and current fitness editor of the Oatmeal Buffet blog, I will be posting blogs on different topics from why men have bitch tits to why 90 percent of women have thunder thighs. As for today, did you know if you took the 13 billion hamburgers that Americans eat every year and put them in a straight line, they could circle the earth more than 32 times. Moreover, did you know that a single fast food hamburger may contain meat from hundreds, eve thousands, of different cattle. The fact of the matter is if you want to be a lean, mean, fighting machine, then you need to avoid the extra cheese, curly fries and sour cream.
