any chance to lure you down to MA on 1-1? Fun you met a true legend like John J! We got a phone message from bro Tim M about becoming a Crow and Yes there is a hitch with online reg, we'll fix it ASAP or have him mail in this:

: Connecticut fall of 2006 prior to the last
: Mystic Marathon. It was cool to meet him. I
: did not know that he had a store and only
: stopped in while the wife was hitting all
: the other stores. I told him that I ran the
: Breakers Marathon in Rhode Island that day
: and was going to run the Mystic Places
: Marathon the following day. He signed and
: gave me a book written by Jock Semple and
: himself "Just Call Me Jock". Very
: nice guy!
