Muffin Top

In a special Pantryraider sports edition, props out to Chops for finishing the Canberra Marathon in 3:15:59 May the Vaseline be with you. A further shout out to Zorba for not only taking home the club title with the Sloths, but the national title with the New South Wales team in the Australian Dragonboat Championships. Hopefully some of the competitive edge will rub off to this Seppo, as there are only 6 days until my first triathlon. At a certain someone's suggestion, I have been listening to The Go Team while training, which is definitely a fitting soundtrack (who would think to combine harmonica, hip-hop, electronica and allusions to American high school football).

The truth is, I am extremely petrified of swimming in the harbour. It's not the actual drowning I am worried about, it's the really fucking scary outfit I have to wear (much lycra involved), and the thought that someone might have to pull me out of the water in said tragic attire. I'm sure that as I am a master of self deprecation, I will get a picture of myself in what will introduce my new nickname: "muffin top".

Other random non-sports related crap:

In the poor choice of headline department, the award goes to "Apology for Camel Snatch." No worries, Sydney Morning Herald, but I think the word you were looking for was "toe".

It's still actually illegal to use an ipod here in Oz under current copyright laws, which makes it difficult to believe reports that the itunes music store will be here in mid-june. Don't cross your fingers, kids.
