I'm still alive but I've been very busy with work and.... facebook.<BR/><BR/>My running buddy Steve dropped his cell phone into a urinal right after flushing it. It got drenched before he could retrieve it. As it was sitting on the bathroom counter I called him. I was in a remote section on the panhandle of Idaho calling from my car. I could barely hear him as his voice was muffled and actually sounded like he was underwater. The phone eventually dried out and while it had it's quirks he tells me it's starting to work better and better the longer it has time to dry out. I'd say you're practical. I'd call Steve cheap for not replacing his phone after dropping it in a urinal.<BR/><BR/>Night running can be fun but those rednecks throwing things and driving drunk should be a very real concern. We have a relay here in Washington that runs along a highway at night. The shoulder is very narrow and the pulp trucks driving from the lumber mills don't yield an inch. I've got two friends that have been hit by things thrown from cars. One was a bottle that hit my X-Marine friend. It's a good thing he didn't get his hands on the teens that tossed it. The other friend got hit by two water balloons. I think she was hurt more. I couldn't believe the size of the bruises that they left. At first she thought she had been shot.<BR/><BR/>OK... I'll write another post soon to catch up on the running and other stuff I've been doing lately . <BR/>Cheers!Journey to a Centumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06294889164059934956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856118913828941953.post-22758355289856604222009-02-25T15:10:00.000-05:002009-02-25T15:10:00.000-05:00looks like its time for that new phone huh .... wa...looks like its time for that new phone huh .... way to go on registering for that night marathon.<BR/><BR/>Hope to see u guys at Umstead, it's going to be an awesome time.
