Oh. My. God. Dude.

I'd never claim to be a Michigander, it's merely the straightest path to get to a favorite vacation spot. But Oberon not being tasty... Evil grin

And no Vernors?!? Surprised


*comes sprinting back into the thread*

Here's my deal w/Oberon...beer, when purchased in draft form at your favorite local watering hold, SHOULD NEVER COME w/a piece of fruit. Fruit is delicious, even good for you. Or so I hear. But what it is not good for is as an assist to MY BEER. Damnit. If it came w/french fries, or a big ass plate of nachos even, it would qualify as the greatest beer in the known universe. That it actually comes adorned w/fresh fruit puts it on the suspect list. End of debate.

And Vernors. Yeah, my distain for it comes from childhood. I had a stomach ache as a youngster and my grandma gave me some Vernors to "settle my stomache". I promptly threw it up not 10 seconds later. And also, it tastes like liquid crap in a can. So maybe that's why I hate it. Meh.
Run like hell.

You know you could order your Oberon without orange...I drink mine at home without fruit. Wink

I was not aware that Oberon is typically served with fuity adornments... I wouldn't like that either.

Hamlet is STILL the best. I think it had the highest body count. And insanity. And ghosts. All the best elements of Shakespearean tragedy. MacBeth is good, too. Lady MacBeth is a freaking biotch!!! Big grin

Well here it is two days later, and I'm pretty sure I'm posting on Lucky 13. I must be a psycho, or a psychic, or something.

Kick ass on Sunday my friend. Do it for Cassy. Do it for Chels. Do it for yourself. Just do it. And take pictures (that part's for Jake and me.)

Run tall, race hard, finish strong. Enjoy the day, and don't forget to stock up on frozen peas.


Thanks, Ed. I hope to do as well as you did in your first my friend. Smile

Frozen peas (or mixed vegies) are my friend! Big grin

Agreed, Ed. Rick, have a great day and enjoy all the hard work you've put into toeing the line. Remember (and I know you will) WHY you're running it, and take it all in. Forget the watch, time is of no relevence on this one. There's plenty of us that'll be thinking about you, so go for it!

Cheers, beers, and many years, partner!

Thanks, Q. Your Detroit half race report was one of my many inspirations to do this thing. You stupid son of a.... I mean thanks so much for the encouragement! Looking forward to running a race with you someday soon. Wink

Rick, I keep thinking how close your race is...are the nerves setting in bad, or are you feeling pretty at peace with what you are about to accomplish?


Mostly at peace, Zoomy. I have my moments. You, too, were an inspiration for me to get into the game. Looking forward to seeing you in Grand Rapids! Big grin

Hey, I'm born and bred here and can't manage it either. Almost as bad as an Oberon.

*Ducks and runs like hell*


I'm so conflicted now! I hope this is an erroneous post by Q, Zoomy.
