    Well, you took my idea away from me. All contest entrants must be followers of MY blog. Lol. There...I feel better now, though I'm immediately disqualified from winning now bc I can't follow myself.

    ...or CAN I?....

    You are a follower of my blog

    Have been to Glaven’s site but immediately vomited.

    I can say if I secretly follow your truck or not

    I am in bare feet when I put my socks on

    I wished Neil a Merry Christmas on Jan 7

    Yes I have tried running barefoot ... from the shallows to the towel on the beach (wasn't pretty ... greenpeace activists started to follow me and try to push me back into the water)

  46. Happy DanJanuary 10, 2011 at 7:14 PM

    So Neil, I was looking at your sponsor's tonight. I have a comment and a question.

    I was looking for CheeChas at Sobey's a couple of weeks ago and they were almost sold out. It appears the the non-runners have caught on.

    Is it possible to buy RoadID locally? I think I'm interested but I would like to see the real thing first.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Neil ZeeJanuary 10, 2011 at 7:28 PM

    Happy Dan: Chee Cha's are available at Superstore and Safeway too. They are made right here in Calgary! Cool huh!

    Road Id are not available locally, but I'd be happy to show you mine. (thats what she said) On second thought, just go ahead and order them for you and your lovely wife. It's a small price for a Huge level of peace of mind!
