Worst car trouble? Husband wants to trade cars for the day because he needs bigger car to haul people to out of town work meeting. I have first baby and taking him to two week old appointment. I ask if his car has plenty of gas? He assures me I will get there and back with plenty to spare. Driving down Ingersoll on way to doctor, car runs out of gas. So I am walking in snow with the two week old baby and kind of physically exhausted anyway from giving birth recently. The return trip of six blocks uphill in the snow with both the full gas can and the floppy headed two week old baby was just a joy.

I'm guessing Mr. Carvers might have heard about that when he got home. :rolleyes:

This may be Spring's big event:

Boston Qualifier. Nice route. Ends in Lambeau Field with video on their scoreboard, so I could finally give them something to cheer about.

169 days to expand on the one mile base. :) If you do that the RTT gang should come watch the race.

Edit: There is a 5k for old men the day before!

Telethon went great. Stopped to get gas on my way home and the police were combing through a car that was there. They eventually found a baggie and arrested at least one kid.

To top it off apparently the gas station didn't bother to shut down the pump I went to even though they knew the handle didn't work right. So it never shut off and my car got a nice gas bath.

Oh and one of the other people at the telethon was the Iowa Rep who is now famous for "Suck it up buttercup".
