The Dinner Table--RA vs. (and? or? with?) CR (Read 1880 times)

    Hi, I'm another "refugee" and darn glad to be here. The RA folks have been warm and welcoming. I hope that the culture of RA remains intact. . . I am not a fan of cliques or running snobs. Here, we are all runners whether we're elite or clydesdale or somewhere in between. We have to stick together and uplift one another. That way when the non-runners tell us we're wacky for what we do at least we can know we're in wacky good company! Now, pass the Mexican spoon bread, please!
    Clydesdale. I love that. I am SO clydesdale! Big grin

        Heh... DW and I just picked up some SEES candie at the mall tonight after pigging out dining at Outback. Oh, and we picked up a couple of small large bags of Lindt truffles. Roll eyes I gotta go to bed so I can burn some of these calories tomorrow morning. Blush

          Late for dinner, but I don't mind warming left-overs up in the microwave. I too am a recent immigrant to RA and am just now exploring further out from the refugee areas. Thanks for the warm welcome here. Paul Oh yes, I'll have a cup of coffee too

                  Story of my life... worked late and missed dinner again. Great thread Jeff. BTW what's Mexican spoon bread?


                  ...And I do.

                    (((Virtual Hugs))) to everyone! I really like it here already! Let me help you serve that coffee Big grin
                      Holy Cow - I dropped off for a couple of days, and look what I missed! Random thoughts: - Great thread, nice discussion, and I think in a couple of weeks all the dust will have settled and one big happy family (with a certain amount of dysfunction - gotta have the dysfunction) will result. - I second the nomination for Runninghusker as the best avatar. - I missed dinner, but my wife makes awesome cherry and blueberry pies. I brought one of each for dessert to go with the coffee **passes** Welcome to all of the CoolRunners, and Happy Holidays to everyone. I hope that we all meet our goals for 2008 - running and otherwise! Smile

                            ***bringing my dad's authentic New York cheesecake*** I may be a little slow on the uptake: can someone clue me in on what "HT" stands for, as in "HTFU?" I think I have the last two letters figured out. Any other RA acronyms I should know about?
