If I can keep up that speed (never run that fast before) I'll probably be headed to Boston in April 2018 for Patriots Day.

Haha well it's something worth being excited for. How does the pace band work? And wow, if you qualify, you think you would head to Boston that soon? That would be great

April 2018 is a long ways away. I don't think there are any Boston qualifying marathons near me between now and September besides this one. If I don't run fast enough, I will have to look into it and see if any of the other ones in Texas are close enough to be worth it. Otherwise I will have to keep training and run in Boston in 2019.

Not sure how they will, hopefully while I am at the expo on the 18th, they will explain it to me.

Yeah I was just briefly checking his boards at IMDb and someone said something about his being in shape and then someone else posted a YT link to his opening of the 2014 Tony's. He was hopping like mad. There was a funny comment on YT about Australia but I forget what it was. It must have been referencing kangaroos lol

Have a good night. I think I'm going to finish watching this new Arnold trailer in the 478 thread and then head to Dennys for some AYCE pancakes.

You got Bambi? How old are you?! Of course I say that in good fun. I am old and like to watch cute cat videos so it is same thing

[geekesmind]

adding up how much I have spent so far in February holy crap and there's still two more blurays I gotta get this month. Hacksaw Ridge steelbook and Dr. Strange steelbook

well i like classic disney movies and i only had a copy of movie on dvd never gotten around buying it on bluray besides its cheap on amazon

I just found out there's another Boston Marathon Qualifier within 50 miles of me. The 2 downsides are it's only 1 month after the one I'm running in 8 days. It's also $125 so I really hope I run well on the 19th and I don't have to make this choice.

Haha ok that is acceptable answer The last "kids" film that I got was Mary Poppins about 3 or 4 years ago. I still haven't seen it probably 25+ years but at least I have it in the collection now.

That's great that there is another qualifier so close Batman. As you said, hopefully you won't need it and will qualify on the 19th

Holy cow, I'm looking at my DVD collection (on BR.com) in another tab and I just glance at the screen where it's all FLF. In all the times that I have seen the artwork for Army Of Shadows, I never noticed the guy was sitting on top of a swastika

Looks like there's some more very clear advice about the week after a marathon that I'm going to take since 26 miles is probably going to wipe me out pretty good. If I qualify for Boston on my first attempt, I owe OmegaIce a debt of gratitude of some kind.

I think you would owe me a debt of gratitude as well since I have been pretty supportive of your efforts to get there

Oh why did I have to Google Williamsburg, Virginia? The pictures are beautiful and I could look at them all day

I'm the opposite. On work nights I don't go to sleep until 2-4am when I have to be up by 7:30am. But on my days off I'm always getting tired around 10pm.

Wow that's crazy to only be getting up to five and a half hours of sleep on work nights. I've done that before but to do it on a regular basis

Could live on the internet there are so many interesting things to read. Have two IMDb tabs open for different films, and also reading about Andy McNag on Wikipedia after hearing his name while browsing the IMDb boards for The American.

I'm usually in bed by 10pm and up at 2am and at work at 4am during the week, on my off days I stay up til 2-3am and still somehow get up at 6am. Once I wake up I have never been able to force myself back to sleep.

If you have an issue or a question about something, why do people on this board like to do this?

Q: I'm unable to do XYZ. I've even tried using another browser. Can anyone help?

A: You should try using a different browser.

I want to say what's on my mind but these things are best kept to oneself and certainly not to be shared on public forum lol

I am listening to a beautiful song though

You need to get yourself an NES Classic so you can feel like a kid again.
