Thanks to everyone who came up with such great name ideas for my new writing blog. I decided to go with Sara's Best. There were much more creative suggestions but since I also want to eventually use this one as a marketing tool for myself as a writer, I really wanted to keep my name in there somewhere.
So, please go be the first to visit the new digs at www.sarabest.typepad.com/writing and tell me what you think.
First 100 Miles will still stay open, this will just make it easier for me to talk about my two passions in two separate venues.
On another note, Canadian rider Zach Bell (previously with Symmetrics now with Kelly Benefit Strategies) finally proposed to his girlfriend Rebecca and he had a friend hide in the bushes nearby to catch the moment on film. How friggin' cool is that?!?! Congrats Zach!!
What a sweet photo, and I love the B&B!

Sorry...b&W black and white...doh.
Congratulations on your new blog. Now we can read you in yet another venue!
We promise to behave.

Cat, are you *sure* you can keep that promise? ;)

After Paris-Nice today on VS (didn't Alberto ride his heart out?), I started watching the Iditarod... for everyone who MISSES Al Trautwig, here he is. I do think he has a marvelous "announcer voice" but oh, the DRAMA!

Al's good at that. Drama, that is!!!
I missed the telecast, but it's on the DVR..I want to see Christian and Tyler's stage wins!!

P-N, that was drama too! I could only watch the clips of the finishes & read the recaps, cause I worked this weekend. Respect for Alberto--and all the other racers who made it such a great contest. And I'm so delighted for Tyler Farrer! It has been a fun start to the racing season, for sure. Wish I didn't have to work next Saturday too, I'll be missing Milan-San Remo won't I?
I'm going to try to watch AI this week. And you know what? I've gotten hooked on The Apprentice too.( Although last night I fell asleep on the couch & missed it.) Melissa Rivers reminds me of someone I'm forced to work with. Beyond that, I enjoy the way they try to complete the task while jockeying for position. Hope it is not really like that in the business world!

Yes! Great drama at P-N!! Dang I always love watching Jens make everyone suffer :)
So.........Sara...........IA loves AI right? What do you think?
Posted by: janann | March 18, 2009 at 11:44 PM
Isn't it funny the way this blog's font makes AI (as in American Idol) look just like Al (as in Trautwig)? This could get confusing. Idol is much more fun than Mr. Drama.

So...TODAY is the first day of SPRING!!
Oh and hey...TONIGHT Is the grand-finale of Battlestar Galactica...crap. It's been a great run and there just seems too few episodes. I will miss it.
OK...have a GREAT weekend everybody!

Cavendish WON Milan San-Remo!!! George was leading him out in the sprint! What a learning curve!! Eric Zabel has been working with him on this race. Everyone was right-on!!

So, Lance has crashed out of Castilla Y Leon! He was acting like his clavicle was fractured. Will this ruin his participation in the Giro?
