8 miles is nothing to blog about.

From Merri on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 13:06:26 from 160.7.252.148

I was only trying to prove to you I am good enough to be on your ragnar team.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 13:10:39 from 206.19.214.144

Oh that's cute Merri. Keep trying. Maybe someday.

From Merri on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 13:22:36 from 160.7.252.148

only in your dreams would i run w/ your team.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 13:37:10 from 206.19.214.144

Yeah, but in my dreams you would be an 8 foot tall slimy green alien with tentacles.

And naked.

From Merri on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 13:39:33 from 160.7.252.148

woah

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 13:44:32 from 206.19.214.144

I can't control my dreams! Hey, why did you take me off your favorite blogs list?

jk

From allie on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 19:08:01 from 174.23.232.22

oh my.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 19:39:20 from 206.19.214.144

allie - you are now off my favorites list.

From allie on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 19:49:30 from 174.23.232.22

oh my! i was never on your favorites list. i check every day.

if i were to make a favorites list, it would look like this:

burp

burt

dorksausage

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 19:55:22 from 206.19.214.144

Ok. You're on there now.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 19:55:58 from 206.19.214.144

I remember when I was on yours. Back when my name was Fiddy.

From Merri on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 19:58:56 from 160.7.252.148

wasn't your name fiddy cent?

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 20:00:49 from 206.19.214.144

fiddy lil' bow wow cent

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 20:13:57 from 206.19.214.144

allie - no need for you to go to Stacie's blog today. Nothing to see there.

From allie on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 21:03:14 from 174.23.232.22

well i don't want to be on your list because you feel obligated. i need to earn my way on there. so far i haven't figured out how to do it. is it because i talk about oprah too much?

and yes, i had a list once. fiddy was on it. there was a strategic purpose behind that one, but it didn't work out. does fiddy read your blog, merri? i might have to delete this.

i have already read stacie's blog today. but i am on my way back...

From allie on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 21:10:21 from 174.23.232.22

ha! rambo blade. do you think i am violent? i am going to meet you next summer when i run on your wasatch back team, right? and merri will be on it too? and we have to get PRE to come because i am convinced this guy would be a hoot in a van.

ok, burt. i have also been meaning to ask you: when nan makes it to the olympics, what are you going to do with that photo you have standing next to her in a luchadores mask? it will be worth millions. hold on to that thing...

merri - thanks for always providing such a welcoming environment for conversation.

From Lily on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 23:00:31 from 67.199.181.73

Oh my peoples. Where to start....

From Merri on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 23:05:52 from 160.7.252.148

yes allie fiddy does read this blog...he is my brother. :) jk the only people who read this are those that have commented. :) thanks to my 3 fans! I love you all.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 23:17:05 from 68.225.214.248

I'm such an idiot for having a mask on! How is everybody going to know it's me???

From Lily on Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 23:18:41 from 67.199.181.73

Dee dee dee Burtdee

From Lily on Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 16:24:04 from 67.199.181.73

Merri I am always going to be your biggest fan. You know I like stalking you to the mailbox. I also steal your laundry when you leave the garage open. And speaking of, I think you may have stolen my shoes? I see them sticking up out of your lawn blinking with lights each night when I run. The witch is out! :)

From Lily on Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 16:25:08 from 67.199.181.73

Or in. Depending on the time of day.

From Merri on Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 16:37:18 from 160.7.252.148

ahh yes Lily the witch is the best. :) I wish I could make her stop blinking though...

From allie on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 21:00:56 from 174.23.195.124

sorry, i must have dozed off. where were we? oh yes. so. burt punched me in the mouth today.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 22:50:08 from 68.225.214.248

allie - if that was true, you wouldn't even be able to say that because you'd have no teeth.

From allie on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 22:58:50 from 174.23.195.124

i didn't say it, i used sign language. my mouth is full of bloody gauze. just in time for halloween.

From Burt on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 23:06:19 from 68.225.214.248

Okay, it's true. But I figured I'd get you ready for dentures since you love little old ladies so much.

From Merri on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:27:01 from 160.7.252.148

does anyone know of someone who owns a reno 911 costume I could borrow for halloween?

From Burt on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:33:11 from 206.19.214.144

Our team captain had a real skanky one, if you're in to that kind of thing.

From allie on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:34:15 from 174.23.195.124

DI? maybe. those things are really outdated, so you are probably going to have to search for awhile.

From allie on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:35:06 from 174.23.195.124

shoot. burt your fingers move too fast.

From Burt on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:36:46 from 206.19.214.144

Yes. I don't have CWFS.

From Merri on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:38:09 from 160.7.252.148

From Merri on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:38:59 from 160.7.252.148

From Merri on Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 18:39:12 from 160.7.252.148

From Burt on Wed, Nov 10, 2010 at 17:24:39 from 206.19.214.144
