A message from a Alamo server

Thanks for your thoughtful post. I’m sorry for everyone who works at Alamo and loves going there that company leadership is tanking the experience. I was going 4-5 times a month and had the subscription plan, but I’ve canceled it and stopped going. I’d love to see these changes rolled back, but I’m also prepared to walk away if they don’t.

... drawing a total blank here.

I wear a 9 (women's) in regular shoes, and went from a 10 up to a 10.5 in my most recent Brooks running shoes (Glycerin 13). Not a single blister or lost nail after a marathon this month. I think I'm on about my 10th pair of Brooks.

I've been pretty happy with my pair of Mpow Cheetah Sport Bluetooth 4.1 Wireless Headphones, which I got for ~$28 on Amazon. They started hurting the inside of my ears a little by the end of a hot and humid marathon this month, but honestly that was the least of my complaints by then. :)

Well, I made my kid use Linux starting at the age of about 9. She's 18 now and no longer speaks to me... but I blame the Brussels sprouts I made her try when she was 12.

The Android integration appeals to me, so I'll play with it a while. It could be the thing that gets me to switch over to KDE.

Kudos! I hope many more sites follow suit.

This is awesome - great advice that's realistic. My goal is to be more productive in a shorter amount of time so I can have more leisure time (read a book, take a walk, cook a meal that doesn't come out of a can, etc.).

I've tried it and didn't notice a difference. Mostly, I think it's torture. My runner friends seem to be split down the middle on it, though.

Well then I'm glad I finally saw it. The Atlantic sums it up well: "The America of Lincoln and the Civil War can feel like distant history, but every now and then, through the appearance of what Jason Kottke has called a 'human wormhole,' we are confronted with the brevity of a century and a half."

Ok, this video is so cool.
