Okay, it's not just about me...

There's some doings in blogworld that shouldn't escape notice:

Wildknits just finished her first 50 Miler (and a rather tough one, at that).

RBR ran the San Francisco Marathon as a birthday present to herself, about a minute per mile faster than last year.

Sea Legs Girl ran the same 50 as Wildknits, then had a personal tragedy.

Glaven and "teh Bride" just celebrated 20 years together. If you've only read his comments here, you'll be pleasantly surprised by what he's written lately.

Me? I'm thinking I need a better nickname...

How about the Q-meister?

Xenia may be on to something. How 'bout "Q-Tip"? Because at bars, you could say to the skirts, "Hey, girls, now that you've met BIG Q-Tip, how'd you like to meet little Q-Tip?"

Wait. That doesn't really put you in a very good light, does it? And it sorta makes it sound as though your man-parts were shaped like a Q or something. So then maybe right after saying that, you should introduce them to Dr. Nic.

As for Gaven's blog - I've read it.

Guy's a hack.

But I do like Teh 'Bride.

O - and thanks for the shout-out.

Q-Tip is more for a rapper than a kick ass runner...

wildknits said...

Thanks for the mention! And directing me to others blogs. I am off to so some catching up.

There is a rapper named Q-Tip; heard him on the radio yesterday.

Two years ago, Matt P. started calling me "Cool Hand." Works for me, tho perhaps "Q'l Hand" fits the theme developing here.

Q: whether the gadget guy in James Bond flicks, the transdimensional omnipotent of Start Trek or Larry Cohen's giant Aztec birdmonster, is simply a great letter.

Only G could make a comment about his own wife that sounds creepy and pervy. *eyeroll*

You are a sweetheart. I know, I am being all sappy.... blah, blah, blah... Sue me. I am hormonal. Go with it or you can feel the wrath of the other end of that spectrum

(no, not 'speculum' you big, perv! Sheesh, you are hangin' with G too much!)

Hmmm... nick names.... How about 'Barnaby Jones'?

Say what you will about about ol' Barnaby, I always thought he was hot.

SteveQ said...

RBR: time to go back on the meds. Barnaby Jones?!

And regarding your comment:

1. You went to the Lobsta' with a diabetic? Now, THAT is sadistic.

2. Don't tease me. You better be out here next year. I will pick you up a boa! :)

One more comment, well today, ok this morning...

So when is this mysterious birthday of which you speak? You boys and not disclosing the dates. GAWD!

You know they are putting a net under the GGB to dissuade would be suiciders? That will leave a hell of a waffle print!
