Bay to Breakers 5k
« on: June 02, 2012, 02:48:52 PM »
Anyone familiar with this event know it's held annually, and ostensibly it's a 5k race, and a fund raising event. But mostly it's not taken seriously and is more famous for the costumes and getups worn by the vast majority of the participants. I used to live in Marina Ca. and had many pleasant trips to San Fran while I lived there. The homo's then were far less militant than they are now.
The reason for the backstory is emphasis being put on 5k. My first 5,000 posts.
I only post 44 a day on average.
I have only been ignored by 3 members, although one dis-ignored me so now it's down to 2.
I have only been accused of being a mole by 2 members.
I have developed some well earned affection for several of the members, and respect all the rest, with few exceptions.
I have threatened to start several topics, but only 2 of those repeatedly. "My list of banned words" and "Everything I know about weight loss".
I have for the most part tried to add a spoonfull of sugar and good entertainment value on every post.
Criticism is welcome, but only if I welcome it, for the purpose of editing my next 5k posts.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Congrats on your 5k.

You only post 44 a day? That isn't much. Of course I shouldn't talk. I only post 24 a day.  :-)

"We will preserve for our children (America), the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done."  -- Ronald Reagan.
