Geek vs. Gull II, or why I now idolize the Geek and have embraced TI

The Geek and I swam head to head this weekend, matching up in the 200 and 500 (in adjacent lanes for both, believe it or not). The Geek won both, beating me by about a second in the 200 and I believe 3 or 4 seconds in the 500. He'd shed 20 pounds since we last raced and shaved (as I did), but he was not wearing a Fastskin. I did swim a personal (Masters) best in the 500, nearly 5 seconds faster than last year, and split it extremely well, but alas it wasn't enough. As the winner, he walked off with a Starbucks gift card and of course this thread. See you in Austin in 2008, Geek.

    I'd like to volunteer to be your not so secret nemesis! I'll let you name the event, time, and place. I seriously hope it's not breaststroke. But, oh well. . . I know you're on this *** kick. Sigh. BTW, would being your swimming muse pay better? Kristina as my Nemesis I think you're way out of my league. The Muse idea might work though. Can I call you "Special K?" I admire the brazen trash talk and sarcasm too, but does Geek have to pick on some poor guy with a shoulder injury? I can think of other worthy victims to pick on .......... like SwimStud. What did I do to have you get the G-Men onto me? They won't taunt me...they've been reading the forums and realise I'm working on my freestyle now... LOL:D
