Running "On the road again." Just can't wait to run "On the road again."

"He's got a nice voice, but he's not much to look at!" (My grandma's quote).

If I ever want to shave 3 seconds off my 5k time, I can just crank up some willie on the mp3 player :)

Pass the rolled joint and let's get on the road again...

QP - Grandma knows best.

RT - I miss your one hit wonders.

LT - I knew someone would say that, but I didn't expect it from you.

Don't slip up around McCumbo.... he's like the blog police!

Hey Burt,

I haven't visited you Blog lately. :(

Has anyone commented on you new Blog picture...? Nice round Bowl.

From Burt on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 15:44:37 from 206.19.214.144

Funzo - They call me Shaft. Shut yo' mouth!

Preston - Are you talking about the red fountain bowl or my tummy?

From I Just Run on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 15:51:08 from 67.79.11.242

Ah...Burt, you know me too well, do you really think I would insinuate something like that?

It's a good thing I haven't put a picture of myself on my Blog, all kinds of innuendos could be inferred about my bald head :)

From allie on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 18:35:32 from 161.38.218.168

willie nelson?

From Burt on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 18:57:52 from 206.19.214.144

Preston - bald? You can be whoever you want on the blog.

allie - cheese?

From I Just Run on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 18:59:53 from 67.79.11.242

Ahhhhh...

I meant to say: "It's a good thing I haven't put a picture of myself on my Blog, all kinds of innuendos could be inferred about my long flowing hair :)

I'm looking for the link that was on Burt's blog recently that had the guy in the wheelchair shooting hoops and talking about every excuse in the book. I can't find it. HELP ME!! Please :-)

From Burt on Wed, May 25, 2011 at 14:51:00 from 206.19.214.144

Dan - I like it!

QP - Go to PRE's blog. It's there.

From The Quiet Pirate on Wed, May 25, 2011 at 15:21:09 from 152.26.59.252

Thanks Burt. I thought it was on yours and I was going insane. The good news is I've been thoroughly amused looking through all your blogs again for the month.
