Recently moved to South Jordan from Davis County ... trying to figure out the nice trails around here to run on.  Too busy to run tomorrow, so will try to find a trail nearby to run on on Thursday.

EDIT:  Hmmm.... I'm off by one calendar day (Doh!) ... I'll post tomorrow and be back on track.  I didn't have time to run today anyway ... had tons of meetings until late in the day and didn't make home in time to go for a late run.  Time to get those 7 hours sleep time I've already said I'd get. ;)

Why is your name burp? I of course have been called that many a time. lol

My online persona, burp, goes back a long time ... . While creating an account on an e-mail server ... you know the drill ... everything I typed in was taken.

I just happened to burp at the time (I think ... maybe this is lore now) and put "burp" in to see if it would accept it. It did! Every since then, I've gone by "burp" or a variation thereof "burpsan" (Mr. burp in Japanese). Easy to remember, amusing to most people, and very few burps out there = ideal online persona.

Disclaimer: Of course, I've run into other burps since then, so there's only one original burp (me as far as I know) and other imposters out there.
