Poll question: NY Marathon today - almost ready - does anyone care?
I really don't, but I also think it's great that people enjoy running it and that others enjoy watching it. I do appreicate it that it's one of the few sports that doesn't involve nationalism or any other kind of "geographic" separatism, and riots don't happen after it. It's like golf - everyone's cool about it, nothing gets burned down, no one gets in a fight, and at the end of the game, they hang out together.

I've included "I'm running it!!", and I realize that no one now can answer that truthfully, but perhaps later today...

Does anyone know if we have a DUer or more who's running?

1. I'm getting a kick out of it ....

I like watching people pushing their limits .... besides what else am I suppose to watch, fucking evil old goats like Dumsfeld and Zell(out) telling us that 20 dead soldiers in Iraq is no big deal

Edited to say: one person I don't care about is Sean "Puff" Combs running this thing; I hate that guy ... am I the only guy who remembers that disaster at City College in 1991

3. yeah, it was PuffDaddy, now P. Diddly, but he's pretty slim ...
I think you're thinking of Suge Knight or "Fat Joe"
