Good one.

Uh, yeah. Is it? I figured you could tell me. Unrelated: what's E.T. short for? . . . . . . . . . . . . . Because he has tiny little legs.

I think it's best not to tary in the ceme

tarry.

Gruetzgirl, so what did you think of the HBO series Six Feet Under? I've seen every episode so I'm now an expert too. Feel free to ask me questions. And I always had a thing for Claire Fisher.

I think the first two seasons were good, then it got kinda weird and the drama took over. I did like watching the first episodes!

Historic cemetary (where several generations separate the living from the dearly departed) - OK. Active cemetary (where people will be visiting their relatives,friends etc) - Disrespectful, in my book.

It was a perimeter run and there is an actual path at the back of the cemetery that allows you to access the river path. I guess I didn't think much about it and have read other accounts of people finding it peaceful to run through a cemetery.

There. That's now officially settled. If its something Rick would do, it must by definition be respectful. There aren't many people I'd say that about, but he's one of 'em. If Rick and Mortuary Girl say its cool, its cool. At least until somebody starts a website for the American Runners Who Don't Run Through Cemeteries (ARWDRTC). Because once there's on official governing body with a website and everything, they decide, of course. So was it peaceful, Rick? I've been trying to talk some Nash-villains into a cemetery run tomorrow morning, and finding little success. Mostly cuz they're not hilly enough. Hey, I just learned that I've been running by a little cemetery for years and not even known it. I guess there's a handful of graves right next to the Monkey course. Who knew? Come run it and I'll show you. -------------- Now where's the OP? He started this tempest in a B-cup and hasn't been back to admire his work. I wanna know what he thinks.

I'm here and was enjoying watching the fireworks. Most of my runs I try and do early in the morning so after all this, I am going to run in the cemetery and will avoid any mourners, services, headstones, tombstones, caskets, coffins, zombies and most of all flying monkeys. Thank you for replying, I truly enjoyed all the responses. ~Gordo

It was peaceful in that there was not much conversation going on, other than the voices in my head. I didn't feel as though I had desecrated anyone. As far as if there had been people in there paying respects or a burial or memorial, I definitely wouldn't have trapesed through there. Common sense, methinks. Must you taunt me with this Monkey-business?!? Come on, I'm just getting back from a broken leg for cripes sake! Thanks for the compliment, btw. Are you trying to say I have character or, am one?
