I fought the law...

...and I won.

The other night the family was heading home and the fuzz pulled me over. As I was heading down the street the car in front of me was going quite fast and I was actually going the speed limit. The light turned red in front of us so we both had to stop and a car pulled up right behind me. As soon as I crossed the intersection the bacon turned his lights on.
"You gotta be kidding me," I exclamined.
The car in front of me also pulled over. The cop came up and I said "There was no way I was speeding was I?"
"Yep, I gotcha," said the five-O.
"Sir, I know that the car in front of me was going really fast which is why he probably pulled over," I said.
I could see the doubt in the barney's eyes. He took my papers and headed back to his car and the car in front of me took off, knowing that they just got lucky.
The po-po came back up and knocked on my window.
" I have good news and bad news," said the onion. "You wont receive a citation but your license is expired."
It had been expired for more than two months and I had no idea.
One-time let me go and Emily said it isn't fair that I got so lucky. But it wasn't luck because I wasn't speeding and the expired license was an honest oversight. So I guess police are all-right and I apoligize for using all the slang terms for you in this post.
(And I had to look up these different terms, because I had no idea what they were.)

My Radio Voice-Over



Here is my radio voice over for one of our stores, Dick's Market - Some Grocery Stores north of Salt Lake.
I know it is nothing like my cousin who does voice-over work for Ford...but hey, it's not every day that you get to say dick on the radio.

I need to start running again

I have gained more than 15 pounds since the Odgen marathon and I need to start getting back in shape...but it is much easier to just sit and watch TV or sleep.

Thursday, June 19, 2008

I have run three marathons in my life. The first one in San Diego in 2007. It was an eye opener and wiped me out...I didn't run for months after that. Then after nearly reaching 200 pounds I decided to start running again. I trained hard for the Salt Lake Marathon and was ready to beat my brother Mike's time, but at about mile 22 my body failed. I bonked and barely had the energy to finish walking the last 4 miles. Luckily Mike was there to keep me company.
Four weeks later I ran the Ogden Marathon. I didn't tell anyone that I was going to run it, except my wife. I was able to beat Mike's time.

What win I?

'What win I, if I gain the thing I seek?
A dream, a breath, a froth of fleeting joy-
Who buys a minute's mirth to wail a week?
Or sells eternity to get a toy?
For one sweet grape who will the vine destroy?
Or what fond beggar, but to touch the crown,
Would with the scepter straight be strucken down'

Shakespeare
