Go, you chicken fat, go away!

Good stuff! Out West is the best!

Thanks for cleaning up the place after the wild party Thurs night. My parents said it looked great. It was fun meeting you.

wohooo Burt! I am a little jealous you ran ragnar. The last 2 years I've turned down my speedy neighbors teams. I regret! Next year I am totally going to do it.

scott sure does have some pretty pearly whites. is he a dentist?

Derunzo - I'll have to agree since I've never been out east :)

Scott - I hope your parents don't read this and find out I had a wild party.

Lily - Don't you remember? You got DENIED because you are too speedy of a chicka.

KP - He's not a dentist. He works at a nuclear power plant and does not wear the proper safety equipment.

naww you have got it wrong Burt. That was the red rock relay and it's in Sept. A guy named Kyle who lives near me is doing it. He formed a partial team but was looking for 6 others. I volunteered to help him and so did another chic to which he replied with a big fat no. He said we were both just to fast and his ego to fragile. I think the real reason was he asked his wife and SHE responded with a big fat no. Maybe I worry her? Either way, I now hope there time is slower than slow.

Oh wait, Kyle was on the Wasatch back neighborhood team, only he didn't form the team. I was invited by 3 other dudes from the hood to run it with them the last two years. I laughed and gave them a big fat no. :)

ha ha those are some nice pearly whites. Lily we could do a fun team from spanish fields. Get Shawn to run to and we could do couples like chad, tammy, me, wes, julie, adam, lyns & moses

Merri let's do it. Only Shawn can't run. He his knee's couldn't 'hack it'. :)

Oh and I am so excited to hear how Chad does in the Iron man this weekend. We should make a big sarcastic sign for his garage to send him on his way. haha

The Hackett's couldn't hack it.

oh yes the Hackett's could hack it!

Can you hackett

I can hackett, he can hacket

She can hackett, we can hackett

They can hackett, you can hackett

I have an uncle named Kent and I guess he Kent Hackett.

LOL! Or with the trash fieldstone fridge..... 'unless you can't hack it' via McGhie's blog? Remember that?

Is that a pot hole?

Burt, my van hit a pothole like that. Looks like Midway has the same near-non-existent road budget that Pittsburgh does. Darn pothole cost me $125 for a new tire. Interesting study by a local here that was published showing that we pay something like $500/yr per car for repairs related to poor road maintenance, but if every car was taxed $250/yr we'd have the budget to maintain the roads properly (and add a bunch of jobs). Call me skeptical, but for some reason, I don't believe that my $250 tax to the government would reduce my auto repair costs.

Merri, I didn't realize we were married, but I'm happy to run it with you. lol Always fun to meet someone named Wes too!

My dad is a (retired) dentist and I have no where near pearly whites like that! Come to think of it, neither does he or anyone in our family. I'm jealous! I may need to switch industries.

I gotta say, Burt, it's so cool that you meet all these bloggers! I sure wish we could have met when I was in AZ. Three of my brothers still live in AZ. Maybe I'll get you to meet them, take a picture and say it's me. They're 1,000 times better looking than I am, especially the Iron Man one. :-)

Burt, congratulations to you and your Running4NIE teammates on the 2010 Wasatch Back!!!

Fun old memories eh?

Lily! You lurker! Thanks.
