Hawt and sexy
See, if you like matching outfits on men, you have to beat Keith Strawn. He lives somewhere in PA. It's fairly easy to spot him in a race. He usually has on a pink shirt and shoes, one of his pink tutus, and a wand. He's pretty easy to get along with.
I'm touching your pants.
"Keith Strawn"
Keith Straw, no n. And he lives in a Philly suburb, although he's English.
In addition to being "pink tutu guy", he's a fairly interesting ultra runner... and last I checked, the current leader in the 2010 Trail Runner Mag series. Which is cool.
I ran with him for about half of the Seattle Marathon last year. I asked for pointers on painting my shoes pink. I was expecting some bizarre, intricate process because his shoes looked good and seemed breathable. Nah. Krylon.
I don't know what I was thinking. Here I thought it would be funny, but it turns out I am just a creepy, old, gay, loner who dresses poorly when I race.
You're 37, you're not old.
Bloody peasant.

Straw. Sorry. But he's also a sweetie and gives free hugs.
Alone?
teehee
ok give Skeeter a break. i know it's not very PC - but I've come to realize that Army people refer to EVERYTHING as gay, and they don't mean anything by it. Their cereal in the morning is gay, their best friend is gay, their favorite T-shirt is gay. It's just a word. just probably a poor choice in this context...
You're an ass.
Sarah for the win. Ding!

Well that makes it ok then, as long as they don't mean anything by it.
srl i get your point - habits die hard i suppose
It ain't just the Army. Heck, Will and Grace used the word gay as in well, whatever you want gay to mean that's not 1. homosexual or 2. joyously giddy or whatever it meant in the Gay 20s. It's one of those malleable words.
One Juan Williams will probably now also be hesitant to use.
I rode the elevator w/ Keith Straw at Boston. I commented on his shoes. He was nice. I was in my kilt. No spankies.

Of?
Kilt, no spanks. Not necessarily in that order.
Thanks, srl!
I don't think Skeet needs a break. She's pretty tough. Not using "gay" as a negative anymore won't scar her too bad. Why more worried about a marine than gay/lesbian/bisexual/trans kids who have to hear that every day?
You guys know I'm usually in on the fun--that one just smarts a bit, especially with the stuff in the news.

Ok, but let's focus on the other aspect (and perhaps porpoise) of Brat's response.
MC Skeeter is an Armywoman, not a Marine mammal.
You're right srl. My bad. Armywoman it is. I apologize for visualizing her as a Mariness.
