What Ever Happened To […] #1031

[Happy–or at least less miserable–New Year, Everyone! It’s been awhile since we’ve rolled down our sleeves and written anything for the Internet. (Or is it World Wide Web, and, if so, what’s the difference? That’s something I never could figure out. It was supposedly invented by Al Gore? But I haven’t been able to figure...

[Good Aftermourning, “all you groovy guys and groovy gals!” (as they used to say, oh, by now it seems like centuries ago).

[Happy “Bad,” everyone! As in, today is “Bad Joke Friday” once more. And the chatter lately all throughout our little whirled of ultradom has been abuzz with bad jokes having nothing to do with ultrarunning.

[Hello-everyone-and-happy-bad-joke-Friday. OK, that’s out of the way. Now I can get off my chest what’s REALLY bothering me, besides the shirt. Today’s little rankle is about raceday.
