Oh, are you a runner?

No, but I play one in the movies.  


Have you seen "Waiting for Guffman?"  You know that acting couple played by Fred Willard and Catherine O'Hara?  Yeah, that's Bobby and me now.  Our friend is making a movie and we were asked to play runners in a race. I know, I know, when you think of runners or athletes we are the first people to pop in your head.  We had fun in the chilly weather pretending to run and it made me think I should get back on my trying to run a mile goal especially now that I got the thing cut out of the bottom of my foot that was killing me.  And yes, you heard that correctly, I've never been able to run a mile without stopping.  I was always last in grade school when we had to run a mile for the Presidential Fitness test or whatever it was called.  Anyway, I did my best to not look directly into the camera like Pee Wee Herman in "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" and fingers crossed that at least one of our scenes makes it into the movie.

That's a wrap.

Blaine, MO, only wishes it had your talent.

I always appreciated that you were a slow runner in grade school, I recall being right there with you.

Also, the security word i have to type in right now says "chemixi."

Awesome! You are stars!
I am super jealous.

Man, I was slow in elementary school and junior high, too. Don't feel bad.

Speak for yourself about not being a runner or athlete, Stoox! I had the record for fastest mile in Junior High!
