I think that's just because the area code is so large. I say he has only one ho there. Two tops.

Assuming you mean outdoors as the result of running. If we could somehow geo-tag these incidents, you would see the map of my hometown in Michigan and the surrounding countryside literally bombarded. The entire Ann Arbor area would be well-covered, particularly the Arboretum as well as the woods near my dorm -- like most car accidents, my incidents happen within a mile of home.
Of course, the Sacramento suburbs where I used to live would have their share of locations, though I somehow seemed to have the situation a little more under control there. Maybe it was the heat.
And now northern Alabama is quickly being geo-tagged as a new destination of choice. More so when I run in the morning -- you know how that goes. I tend to be mostly cleared out before lunchtime runs.
Have I mentioned that I am a master of OBMPP? Optimal Bowel Movement Prevention Pace. I am quite talented at finding just the right pace to get me home in the nick of time. Run too slow, and you won't get there in time. Run too fast, and you speed up your body's inner workings -- that's no good either. Find your OBMPP, and you can hold of doom for the longest possible time and still get home. It takes a lot of practice. |

I have worked on the OBMPP - I didn't know until now that it had a name - and although I am not a master, I have had my moments (take that as good or bad - works either way.)
My mystery question of life regarding OBMPP... why does all discipline fail when you reach approximately 1/10 mile from the DD (dump destination)? It just becomes a race against the clock (and peristalisis) at that point.  |

| It's too bad I didn't have a Garmin in the 1990's. Having lived in northern California during the housing boom, I found blessed relief at many a construction site Port-A-John on my runs. A time-based geo-tagged model of my "incidents" in that time frame may have provided useful data for demographic studies of the construction and expansion of housing in the Sacramento area. Or something. |

Ok, I hate to admit this. I just don't get the owl reference.  It's clearly funny -- I laughed at PofQ's joke even though I didn't get it, because I know well-executed humor when I see it. (Just ask Scout's mom). But since this is my sh*t in the woods, I must know!  |

Read this thread. Skip the stupid crap at the start. Find the yet-another-successful-highjack. You'll find the owl references. I think Q started it.
