It is time for a bit of fall house cleaning.
Yes, I know that most people do it in the Spring, but you know it has been a very busy summer with all this driving back and forth to the Midwest for this and that race.
As I write this I'm looking at a shrinking pile of my first book sitting on the table next to me. I have just about a half a dozen books left.
BTW: My second book is now finished and I even have an agent.
Wow, next thing you know I'll be on Opraah. That's Opraah with two 'a's a local community access book show here with a viewer ship of about 12 on Sunday night at 2:00 a.m. ;-)
FYI: My first book basically takes the best of my writing from this web site and compiles it into a grammatically correct chronicle of going from Everyman to Ironman.
The book is full of useful and useless information that I know will keep you entertained for hours. It is a great way for Newbies to learn from my mistakes and seasoned pros to have a chuckle or two.

And unlike this web site, you’ll be able to take the book with you when you travel, or read it on the plane, train, or automobile on the way to your next race, and most importantly give it to a buddy as a nice tri Holiday present.

To help generate more sales and to make it easier to give as a gift, I've lowered the price of the book to $12.95.
The book makes a great present as it comes inscribed by the author (that would me yours truly) to whoever you want, with whatever saying you want.

I've also done a bit of fall cleaning from my computer by deleting all of those emails that you get and keep for no particular reason. Below is my favorite one just for your email pleasure:
We all know those cute little computer symbols called "emoticons,"
where:
:) means a smile and
:( is a frown.
Sometimes these are represented by

Well, how about some "ASSICONS?"
Here goes:
(_!_) a regular ass
