Pet Peeves while running?

tcarter83 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 06:43:40 GMT

Personally I have two: one is drivers not yielding to people (specifically me while running) in the crosswalk, the other is people out mowing their lawns (not really their fault, but temporarily annoying, especially if you are hitting a point in your run where breathing is more laboured).

how does that even hurt?

haven't been on here in awhile but, since i started working on my stride and foot placement, holy crap my legs get sore moving more muscles and going for long distances. but, when i can run for six miles and feel good at the end i think its all worth it.

I think I'd like some coffee.

So, I'm asking you all if I should have some, or if I should go with some decaffeinated tea instead. My mug absolutely refuses not to have something in it and I'm at my wit's end.

So, you other mug owners, please give me your input before I can make this decision. It's so very important to me to make my little mug happy.

anyone here from the old crew?

Do you have problems with chafing on long runs? What are some of the most embarrassing chafing problems you've heard about, and how were they dealt with?

This is just too funny not to share. Saved By The Bell was the show that I grew up watching with my friends and brother. They pulled this off so well, check it out:

TARP

Curious to see what folks think of how the banks who took advantage of this program are using it. My thought had been that these institutions should probably not be paying dividends to shareholders or paying out bonuses. Then I remembered that the government actually had to ask banks to take advantage of the funds. Some who were given money, didn't want to take it. So, where does that leave public opinion? I mean if a company who didn't want the money to begin with, took funds at the government's urging and chooses to pay bonuses, dividends or buy a jet why should anyone criticize? And, why should the government have an opinion? Should the administration tell the taxpayers which banks took funds b/c they really and truly needed it and which banks took it b/c it was foisted upon them? And where is the line drawn? Frankly, I don't know how comfortable I am with the President taking time out of his day to make comments on the bonuses on wall street. If you didn't want the companies to manage the money their way, you shouldn't have given them(or asked them to take) the money. And, bonuses will be spent in some way, which helps the economy right? It's all jacked up. Thoughts???
