Notes

Alice's Restaurant Massacree Thanksgiving Day Challenge = run out for 18:34 [length of "Alice's Restaurant"] and hustle back to try to negative split and beat Officer Obie back home in time to start making a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat

Looking at the Wikipedia entry for "Alice's Restaurant" it defines Massacree as "a colloquialism originating in the Ozark Mountains that describes 'an event so wildly and improbably and baroquely messed up that the results are almost impossible to believe.' It is a corruption of the word massacre (itself of French origin, possibly from the now nearly extinct Missouri French dialect) but carries a much lighter and more sarcastic connotation, never being used to describe anything involving actual death."

I can agree with that

If I hadn't gotten stopped at the light, I surely would have made it back with a couple seconds to spare, but ... Looks like I ended up on the Group W bench
