1. Are you still eating peanut butter?
2. Watching the end of the biggest loser, to see the transformations, is one thing I enjoy viewing. Last night, the guy kicked off said he was training for an Ironman. Cool. Then he said it was 1.5 mile/80 miles/13.1 milles. I immediately said, "That is not an Ironman". Then Kate called me a snob, and said I was like the guy in Triathlete who said "You aren't an Ironman unless you do Kona". While I think what the guy has done is amazing and comendable, I just wonder if Ironman is being thrown around too loosely these days.
3. I love the Twins, and the new stadium. But how do you think the laid off people at Target feel when the corp spends $125 million on the naming rights to the ballpark, and then 4 months later lays off 600 hundred people?
4. How long does it take to potty train a boy?
Will definitely check out the music, Slim.
With love,

I am still eating peanut butter and peanuts, and I find myself asking Heather every other day if I should be and she doesn't seem to worry about it. Plus, I think the hops in the beer neutralizes salmonella.
Haven't seen biggest loser but if he's calling anything other than 140.6 "Ironman" he's a poser. I didn't throw that term around lightly before I did Madison so I damn sure won't be taking it lightly now. When did the term "triathlon" lose the luster. Can't people be proud to say--I'm doing a triathlon?
Interesting perspective on the Twins/Target relationship. My guess is that most of those employees have any number of axes to grind. On the bright side, the Twins are offering all laid off Target employees an open tryout to play third base. (Where have you gone Corey Koskie?)
Much longer than their little sisters.
Carry on.
I still eat peanuts, but I seem to be very aware of things that have peanut paste in them, i.e. nutty bars, or ritz peanut butter sandwich cookies. I feel like they pretty much got all the stuff that was affected off the shelves, and I really don't eat that kind of crap typically anyway, but I for sure think twice.
I think that is funny on the IM thing the guy said. Dude says that he's doing an IM and then rattles off not even an accurate 70.3 set of distances. Clearly he has no idea what he's talking about, so I feel like the whole conversation is discredited. The other thing is that there are people out there that are very familiar with race distances for both 70.3 and 140.6 (like all of us), and clearly all of those people out there know this guy has no idea what he's talking about. I have heard people inadvertently use IM and "triathlon" interchangably, and I enjoy the reaction on people's faces when they accurately find out the distances, and realize they've had no idea what they are talking about the whole time. He'll get his. Although at least he's out there doing something. I was at F-ing Chuck E Cheese last weekend for my nephew's birthday party, and saw a group of three about 12 year old kids, and each one of them weighed more than I do. I wanted to slap the video games and chips out of their hands and take them all out for a hike or something.
TGT: it is interesting. I have not personally heard any angst from the inside - Tracy or any of the people that I'm still in touch with over there, although, I think I may be pissed if I lost my job so that the twinks could play in a new house. Brand building though, right? :)
Boy's potty training: not sure. My nephews seemed to take much longer than their girl cousins.
As you were.
