On a frozen
lake it would be 32 miles.
Of course
it’s been a couple of Ice Ages
Since the
last freeze.
So with a
light chop it was only 35 miles.
100 of you
demented Homo sapiens
Decided you
had nothing better to do
But to hand
paddle board the day away.
What the
hell, it was all-downhill.
It is really
hard to believe
That last
finisher didn’t beat you,
I think the
guy wanted to be the 100th.
Man, you are
some kind of lazy.
Yeah, you
were older then most.
OK, everyone
else had working legs,
But I know
there ain’t no leg work
For fools
that spend a day on their stomach.
Sure,
everyone waited for you and number 100 to arrive.
Yeah, they
made a lot of noise, a hell-of-lot of noise
When they
finally dragged your ass onto the chair at waters edge.
Christ, I
think half of the crowd was family.
So what do I
think? Funny you should ask!
I thought it
was the damnedest, craziest,
Most
extraordinary thing I have seen...
Since my
oldest son’s first step, 49 years ago.
