Shorty Mullet

I was in Belk the other day in the kids section and right next to the Hello Kitty dresses were size 7 shorty shorts. My jaw hit the floor when I saw them. I said, these are not shorty shorts, these are skankotron shorts which have no business being anywhere near the intended age group. I mean seriously, I will have to upload the picture I took. Insane.

Did you know that there are bunch of videos on youtube of people hula hooping and doing complex and artistic manuevers? It's the hoop life and its a interestin little subculture.

I've run in my bikilas outside now a couple of times and they've actually felt really good. I've run outisde in them before, but these last couple of times, its just felt different in a good way. Do I dare wear them for a longer run though?

In other running news, the Olympic marathon trials were run in Houston this weekend. Meb Keflezighi came in first for the men at 2:09:08 which I think was close to a record. Ryan Hall came in about 20 seconds later. And I'd never heard of the third guy named Abdi Abdirahman. Shalane Flanagan came in first for the ladies. Not bad for her second marathon. She won a bronze medal before in a shorter distance, so I'm hoping she busts out some gold in London. In second was Desiree Davila who podiumd in the last Boston I'm pretty sure. And in third, the new mother Kara Goucher! I recall reading a spread in Runners world about her a while back and how she beats herself in her head easily. Here's hoping that this Olympic chance unleashes the mama power in her!

I was watching Prometheous parody trailers on youtube and found a Dark Knight rises trailer where they put cats on everyone's heads. Picture Bane as a kitty cat with his mask on. Funnny or strange?

I'm feeling an urge to buy a flashlight. Such an odd sensation!

What do you get when you combine a mullet with a mohawk? A mo-mullet, or mullawk? Then what happen if you add in one of those jedi padawan pony tails? I'm thinking this hair style might be for me!
