Did I Miss Something?
Gas Prices Fall for 1st Time Since Feb.
Sun May 21, 4:47 PM ET
CAMARILLO, Calif. - The average retail price of a gallon of gas fell about 1.45 cents across the nation during the past two weeks, the first drop since prices began a steady climb in late February, according to a survey released Sunday.
Self-serve regular averaged about $2.93 a gallon, down from about $2.95 two weeks ago, said Trilby Lundberg, who publishes the nationwide Lundberg Survey of roughly 7,000 gas stations.
This week is an easy week--the taper before the marathon on Sunday. The animals are in the bush and that's better than getting it in the backdoor of your barn (or something like that). I'm as ready as I'm going to be. Got some pre-race jitters here...first marathon for me in 4 years or so. I suppose that is to be expected.
Here's my post-race plan: rest up for a week and then start training for some sprint triathlons. I'll get into that, more, after Sunday.

I think the saying goes, "If you bangorhard in the bush you won't have to worry about aching toes in the morning." Or something like that.

Or maybe it's, "Two bangorhards in the bush is better than one aching hand?"

Well, here's one from Hippocrates (400 BCE) that I think clears things up: In disorders of the bowels and vomitings, occurring spontaneously, if the matters purged be such as ought to be purged, they do good, and are well borne; but if not, the contrary. And so artificial evacuations, if they consist of such matters as should be evacuated, do good, and are well borne; but if not, the contrary. One, then, ought to look to the country, the season, the age, and the diseases in which they are proper or not.
