What, one of the cows going to turn you in?



"Metro Lenna Police? Yeah, this is Elmer. She's running down the road right now, and it looks like she's working a laptop at the same time. Yeah.... Uh-huh, it's her - no doubt about it. She'll probably be downtown in about five minutes or so.... A quart of cream? Sure - we'll bring some over when we pick her out of the line-up. 'Bye."

a half mile?



you can't run or bike a half mile.



you can stumble that far drunk in the dark.


akern - if you have really breathable clothing you don't stink as much, deoderant and antipersperant, and towel off when you get there. i don't stink, or at least no one else has told me yet.

I used to work about 8 miles from my house. Would have loved to ride the bike to work but two problems:

No showers at the site for cleaning up.

My return trip would have been at night on a fairly busy state highway.

Now I work about 15 miles away. Still no showers available.
