8.44 miles @ lunch

57 degrees and Sunny.  After yesterday's day off and today's low temps, I was ready to roll. Fastest opening mile I have had in some time (7:10).  I picked it up a bit after that and felt good throughout. 7:01 avg.

After reading Tracy's blog about Caning old men at Volleyball games, I thought that I would write about an experience that I had with a neighbor tonight.  This guy thinks it's okay to let his dog piss on my mailbox, piss on the rim of my car and shit in my yard.  Granted he carries a doggie poop bag, but still......I don't even own a dog, and if I did, I wouldn't let it deficate in my neighbor's yards.  There is plenty of open green space in our neighborhood, including this idiot's own yard!  This is the second time I have had to open my door an give this guy the business.  The first time was last winter when I noticed him letting his dog do it's thing at the top of our yard where my girls had built their sledding starter ramps.  The A-hole gave me attitude when I called him out that time!  Anyways, when this family first moved into the neighborhood from Cambridge MA, my wife was talking to her sister on the phone when she noticed their 10yr old daughter running down the street barefoot.  She couldn't believe her eyes when the girl took a hard right and proceeded to hike up her dress and crap in our front yard!  Really!!!!! C'mon Man!  I swear up and down...... true story.

So anyways, yeah..... I'm a little fired up.  Maybe I should take my morning duke in their yard before my run. Oh and after my longer runs, write my name in cursive on their front door.

Oh, my. Got a good chuckle out of that one. Doesn't seem very funny though. Sounds like a "weird" family. Not sure what I'd do on this one. This guy's too far out there.

It actually is kind of funny. Especially the daughter squatter.

Great story! An entire family of lawn crappers, it's like a Chevy Chase movie or something. I've been slightly annoyed that some guy flicks his cigarette butts in my yard (haven't caught him in the act yet) but this blows that away.

This reminds me of Me, Myself and Irene. 7:10 first mile? Man, you really stepped your game up. What's the secret weapon?

From Derunzo on Sat, Sep 20, 2014 at 13:50:06 from 24.218.179.128

Probably the 57 degrees. 45-60 for temps is my wheel house. I also haven't run anything in the low 7 ' for about three months.
