UG this is NOT good!
last week i had blood work done.
it seems i've got a serious problem.
i have blood in my ice cream system!!!
and way too much of it!
i just put in a call to the blue bell plant manager in Brenham. i'll be ok, no need to panic.
Hey, knelson, you're an "old guy" (e.g., 45-49) next year, right? Will you be at the meet and join in the Blue Bell/Shiner Bock 500 challenge?
Actually with the early timing of the meet I'll still be 44. I'm hoping to go, but not 100% sure yet!
Ummmm.....this breaststroke/freestyler hates the order too! or maybe what I really hate is I can't do two events back to back anymore!
9. Men 200 Freestyle
11. Men 50 Breaststroke
25. Men 100 Breaststroke
27. Men 50 Freestyle
Hey, Water Rat, if this 52 year-old can do an ironman pentathlon meet in 2-1/4 hours, you can do two events back-to-back! I will gladly admit, however, that my times absolutely sucked in those five races. :bolt:
7. 100 fly
9. 200 free
19. 500 free yeah dont mind this 800lb gorilla in the corner
27. 50 free
29. 200 fly
Hey, Steve, I'm counting on you tuckering yourself out at least a bit on Thursday with the 1000 or the 1650. Can't have you all super-rested before that 500:bolt:
hey if i cant be 6'5 tall maybe i can be 6'5 AROUND!
speaking of the 500 in SA, i REALLY REALLY REALLY hate the order of events!!!
i just love how all of the free/fly events are back to back, yet they never have ***/free back to back and those swimmers never do both of events (ok dave sims can be the sole exception).
p.s. you 2 gene winners willing to put up a pint for the winner of the 500?
maybe get shaffer and dickson to go in as well. i could use another 1/2 gal for free :D

speaking of the 500 in SA, i REALLY REALLY REALLY hate the order of events!!!Steve, just outsource your entry to me as I have your 6 events all planned out:
Thursday
1000
1650
You are allowed to enter both events and doing this will ensure you truly know the walls so that your turns are then super-fast for the 500 on Saturday and we don't hear any whining about how us tall guys get extra distance off the pushoff
Friday
400 IM - during which you just get a split request for your 100 fly and then loaf the rest. Of course, you will need to do a legal breaststroke to have your fly time count
200 free - plenty of rest by skipping the actual 100 fly and then you're out of there early enough to rest up for the 500
Saturday
500 free - hopefully, we can round up a great final heat for this like we did in Greensboro (and, be thankful that Switzer and Sims are 50+)
200 fly - we'll make this your 6th event, but hope that they don't drop it so that you can win the "macho man" award for entering the 6 toughest events on the agenda
Saturday night - you head up to Austin and buy rounds of drinks for the rest of us who have looked at the Sunday order of events and decided there's no use sticking around for any of that mess.
p.s. you ... willing to put up a pint for the winner of the 500?
maybe get shaffer and dickson to go in as well. i could use another 1/2 gal for free :DI'm in. But, it has to be Shiner Bock.

Are you sponsored by blue bell or something? It's very unlike you wanting to give it away like that. I'm game. The Blue Bell Challenge.
