      Don't worry it grew back - better than ever

      I may be small, but I'm slow.

      A veteran - whether active duty, retired, or national guard or reserve is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to, "The United States of America ", for an amount of "up to and including my life - it's an honor."

        I figured since I have a toe bruise now, I might as well go the full mile and start wearing keens or tevas.
        6 months. Toenails grow very slowly. You may end up with a permanently disfigured toenail

          Tough love. It's what I give. Next time you need to be more careful getting on and off the elliptical.

            Black toenails often disguise precancerous lesions. I'd be careful.

              How do you know this? Maybe you should let the doctors be the doctors and you keep this speculation to yourself.

                  I actually dropped a surfboard on it.

                  Over the summer I really got into sport elliptical. It is more fun than staying inside the gym and it really turns some heads. In fact, not sure which gets me more comments....my elliptical bike or my segway

Jason Beck was excellent in his one-game relief effort against Utah State, a team later to be led by Riley Nelson. The Riley Nelson experiment, not so much. Perhaps one can play well for Bronco with a multisyllabic first name, but it requires no more than one for the last name.

                    I think all Cougar fans are with me in hoping that Jake Heaps continues the success trend for monosyllabic named quarterbacks. By the end of the season I won't be a bit surprised to see some of the more dastardly Ute fans in an attempt to to jinx Jake begin a campaign to call him Jacob.
                    I would rather call him Hake Jeeps because it stays true to the trend you've pointed out, but it would sound like he was a different player and would perhaps jinx him and kill your observation. That would be a win-win. Or Wynn-Wynn. (Get it? Wynn is Utah's QB and it is a homophone of win.)

                      Please don't do that Il Padrino Ute. It would take this rivalry to a new low.

                        In your yearbook I told you to "stay cool over the summer". You failed. You also didn't heed my most important advice, "Don't change!"

                          I hadn't thought about the repercussions as related to the rivalry. I'll consider not doing it, as I wouldn't want the rivalry to be anything but positive.

                            True, but you also said, "See you at the beach" and "KIT" What happened there? I waited for days at Zuma and never saw you.

                                The second toenail on my right foot has been black for the last eight months in a state of perpetuity. So there's that. A woman I talked to resorted to painting her nails to hide the blackness - you could do that. As a bonus, cowboy would probably stop busting my chops about hair mousse at the same time.
