I had this funny memory today when I was e-mailing Joses (which is always a serious trip).
I was e-mailing him because I was excited that N.E.R.D. is performing at the Kanye concert in Sacramento tomorrow night. Jen and her gym friends got us tickets and I was sort-of excited about seeing Kanye, but REALLY excited when I found Pharrell was opening. Sweet. Joses turned me on to N.E.R.D. Anyway, I'm a poser, and we'll be exposed tomorrow night. But Joses doesn't care. And he's killer about it.
ANYWAY...the point of e-mailing Joses was about Pharrell, but then I remembered back in 2002 when Missy and I did this half-ironman race and J came down to Oceanside to cheer us on. My race number was 187.
Background: 187 = police code for homicide.
So I come out of the swim and Joses is there screaming at the top of his lungs: "HOMICIDE!" And the other tri-geeks were freaking out about him, I'm sure.
But it was funny because even when I couldn't see him, I could hear this punk scream across the course: "HOMICIDE!"
That was a funny memory.
And, no, the picture above is not from that race. And do not any of you get on me about not running anymore; I'm over it.
Peace. Who's doing the next triathlon? I want to be support crew.
And I hope, hope, hope someone gets lucky and lands #187 again.
So classic.
And get this song:
You can't be me
I'm a Rock Star
I'm rhyming on the top of a cop car
I'm a rebel and my .44 pops far

Get out. You went to a rap concert. How was it? Devin is doing a couple tri's this summer along with a duathlon tomorrow. We'll be doing at least one tri for fun up by you though so let's play race support there.
no, we're going tonight. kanye west. lupe fiasco. nerd. rihanna. should be a fun, fun time, and not something we'd normally do; but kanye puts on a show.
report tomorrow
