in those circumstances I usually check my deordorant. 

 

MTA:  I expect there haven't been too many days since it's inception that someone hasn't considered the swamp dying or going all to hell.  Maybe the group name should be "going all to hell since 2007" or something like that. 

2010 goal = 4:59 for 1,500 meters.

Look, we all want to leave. We have always wanted to leave. At least those of us who have been here for a few years. The thing is...we always complain to each other how the swamp eats up all of our time, and how we waste too much of it in here talking and fighting about the most godawful random shit we can think of.

 

A few of us have left dramatically a few times. Or more than a few times. That's just how it works. Something blows up and we think "HELL YES...this is my way OUT."

 

We all usually come back. Against our better judgement.

 

Since you're new, you don't realize that this is just how it works...yet.

 

Nobody has successfully made it out. Ever. Not any of the cool kids anyway. I still feel JK will return at some point. Hell, Scout did.

So basically you are saying this is Hotel California?

 Well, in this case... I think we're referring to the Nashville Messiah rather than one of Minnesota's Finest. Both are, and will be missed though.

Easy there, killer.  This was not an either / or thing that happened.  Jeff made a choice, that's all.

Run fast sometimes.

Don't let the bastard win.

 No love, I mean no love here...

 

I've spoken with Jeff and I hope we're in a good place and he'll be back.

In the mean time, I'll check my deodorant.  I like it here, it would suck if it went away for lack of interest.
