#2694 Traci
So, Schep, are these recent posts from your alter egos or just some imaginary blue page friendd?
Merry Christmas, Blue Page! Remember the good old days of Secret Santa? |

#2693 IronLucha Subject: Schep
Hi Schep! Didn't want you to feel lonely here.
|
|
#2692 schep
what the...no posts?
anyway, since you were all wondering what's going on with me-packing for the Packers/Lions game. Also in kinda tri related news, remember the old ho Jo? We are both totally obsessed with doing this race in LP next year. We figure its going to be cheaper, lots of suffering, but over with a lot quicker. (insert your own joke here) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UaeaI1gCk8 Whiteface Bike Climb Race |

#2691 schep
well, got power back after 3 days-others still in the dark...
we might join this bike club in NY for what they call 'the last century' on Dec 5th...weather depending of course. I might wear my fangs anyway. cool thing is work booked Terry's prize trip and we are set to see the Lions/Packers US Thanksgiving day game! |
|
#2690 josef
Congrats to Terry! that is an amazing feat! 80 mile swim in a month!! Wow!
Schep, Sorry you missed your 100 miler? and lost power to boot!...Hows the weather now? Will you be trying it again? or wait until next summer. |

Here's some info on Kona lottery rules: http://forum.slowtwitch.com/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=3611223;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; I think if you cheat in other areas of your life, you'll cheat here too, FWIW |
|
#2688 schep
Just want to congratulate TERRY
He has been working SO hard in the American Heart Association contest at work...exercising/counting steps...he actually swam a total of 80 miles last month... well---he WON with a total of over 3 MILLION steps in I cant remember 6 or 8 week period. Seems I never saw him...though he had a mistress that wore chlorine perfume... yay Terry! Plus prize is NFL game anywhere so trying to go to Lions/Packers Thanskgiving Day game. |

#2687 IronLucha Subject: Kona lottery
Change to the Kona lottery slots. Those of us who have been applying for the last 20 years now have .00%1 better chance than those who have only entered the lottery once. Like the difference in buying a $1 Powerball ticket v. a $5 one.

#2686 schep
100 cancelled due to noreaster :(
no power had a cold night getting dressed for work by headlamp not ideal-nothing matches disappointing |
|
#2685 schep
yep josef woke up to 2 inches snow on the ground..yep weather looking just swell... I've packed basically everything bike related I own.
Then again, I don't think there will be knee deep stream crossings like Hellgate. Another concern is will I be able to open gel packs with fangs? and will black lipstick protect my lips from chaffing? Does fake blood have enough carbs to last a long ride? we shall see bwahahaha |
|
#2684 josef Subject: Ridings no Hellgate!
Schep, What's a little 100mile bike ride during Nor'Easter which is heading your way Saturday with sub freezing temps? Pfffft! Your sitting most of the way on the bike! ....I agree with Terry.
|
|
#2683 schep
hey josef, scoot and garv. And Traci. Am a bit freaked out about the 100 mile bike I am doing starting at 6pm Sat, as looking coldy and snowy but as Terry said-that ain't like no Hellgate. Indeed. So should be fine/fun!
|

#2682 scoot Subject: Evenin' Pancake Boy
Hi Garv.

#2681 josef
Schep, Happy Turkey day!
As for 12 IM's gets you to kona? I think I'll have a better chance of getting to Kona on the lottery! as I think I only have one more IM in me before my body breaks down. |
|
#2680 schep
soooooooo........who's heard of the 12 IMs-get into Kona new rule?
wow that's a lot of $$$...would have to sell a lot of stuff on ebay |
|
#2679 schep
In other news-Dug moved to CA today
and Kinger is a dad! and I think turkey will be ready by 9pm |
|
#2678 schep
Happy Thanksgiving josef! Just got off phone with Canadian Turkey Hotline..apparently having it on broil for 1.5 h accidentally not a major tragedy

#2676 schep
ooops missed 'there' in post as in, I was there, in NYC yesterday
even though I can't do these things because 1) have celiac 2) not rich, I just want to eat pizza and hot dogs and spend lots of money when I am there Though, the Penn Station Sushi is pretty good and reasonable but it ain't Nobu. |

#2675 schep
Yes-4 ordered.Can't believe I did not know that! He was sooooooo interesting--said he was hired 3 days before production and they did not rehearse at all for the season opener.
I met him in Harvard Sq and he was doing a reading that night... Spoiler alert: (can't wait to see it now!) Someone asked him how he prepared for the role of 'Trinity' as so different from Dick Solomon...(he did politely remind that he also does lots of theater in NYC, and btw I was yesterday and met Meredith Viera but that is another story) Mr. Lithgow said, well as we had NO rehearsal time at all, how I 'prepared' was I took off all my clothes and got into a bathtub full of blood with an 18 yr old. (think I got that right? haven't seen it yet) He was, "a delight" Now I have to meet Christopher Walken and Steve Buscemi. You think maybe they do triathlons? * * weak attempt to inject triathlon into this post...though David Duchovny does. I had a crush on him in the 90s but now just seems really skeevy, but not in a good way. |
|
#2674 Traci
Oh, Schep....Season 4 is by far the BEST all because of John Lithgow's character!! It may be the best season of any show ever, in my opinion! Get caught up quick so you can watch it. The bad thing is that they will probably never be able to top that season. So good....
Were we supposed to be talking about something like triathlons on here? |
|
#2673 schep
well get this--we are Dexter fans but get a season at a time on Netflix-I did not even know he was on Dexter!! we are behind there...he was funny! Now I am 'dying' to see Dexter season 4.
|
|
#2672 Traci
Schep....SHUT UP!!! YOU MET TRINITY??? I am sooo jealous!
|
|
#2671 schep
No tri related news...but I met John Lithgow today! very tall, funny and charming. I asked if he planned to see Footloose remake and he laughed and laughed...
that is all |

#2665 BOFF Subject: Savageman
Geez that was hard - - (whoa shep:) I barely made the overall time cutoff of 5 PM(start time for me was 8:37) My time was 8:15 the slowest and hardest half I ever did.
Did not get a brick - actually fell over about half way up the wall when my front wheel got caught in a crack. BUT my man crush Dave Scott (6 time Ironman World Champion) was there too and he did not make it up either (he was using a tribike with wrong gearing) Susan Williams is a beast, she went up sitting down! Overall I am satisfied I survived, glad there was no medal, just a finishers T-Shirt. I loved the savage vibe of the whole race. Will NEVER NEVER NEVER do it again (the race that is:) Oh yeah, thanks to our digital world, I am immortalized on Youtube falling over On the positive side, I think my elbow/collarbone/knees/ribs/scapula are healed enough from last years crash that there is a good chance I will try for FLA 2012 - You know an easy race - Just an Ironman |

Просто фантастика! Нашол интернет ресурс где предлагают снять апартаменты за 2600 долларов. А квартира то с украинской недорогой мебелью, белорусской техникой, недорогим паркетом и скоростным беспроводным интернет подключением. Мне кажется оно того не стоит - это дорого! Очень уж преподнята стоимость данной квартиры + просмотрите сайт: [url=http://arendakvartir.ucoz.ua]аренда квартир[/url]

#2660 BOFF Subject: Savageman
Josef,
dave could ahve 2 broken legs, 2 broken arms and still be studly enough to beat me. Desiree Ficker and Susan Williams will be there to beat me too plus about 500 others that are not so famous packed and ready to head out, Right now it is 43F and I have packed warm clothes for the bike tomorrow and plan on taking a bit of extra time to try and dry off before jumping on da bike. |
|
#2659 josef
Boff, don't be to sure, Dave Scott said he is really out of shape, so you still might have a chance! good luck!
|
|
#2658 BOFF Subject: Savageman
On Sunday
100% terrified - even more than any of my IMs Just don't want to DNF by not making a time cut off BUT I will be beaten by Dave Scott, 6 time Ironman World Champion :), he is racing. |

#2651 IronLucha Subject: donations
Let me rephrase, I posted my link on Slowtwich, then got flamed. 1 of the people contacted WTC and asked them what they are doing. The said nothing, and then decided to donate something to look good. And after donating a whopping $5k, they are getting killed for it.
|
|
#2650 IronLucha Subject: donations
Yeah, I put on there too, but people were d-bags, so i'm just sticking to FB and friends of friends.
|
|
#2649 BOFF Subject: link
So i put it where it belonged and it dint show up. Put it in here and it didn't let me post - ugh
|

#2648 Boff Subject: Helping out LP
On facebook, Slowtwitch posted a link to donate for LP by way of the Ironman Foundation - is yours the same as theirs. this was the link on Facebook
