or jump lightly into the middle of the fray
Hurla, 31, outpaced a field that included Miss Kansas Kimberly Grice, who finished in the middle of the pack. Juliette Minter won the Olney end of the race in 64 seconds, three seconds better than the performance she turned in last year.
The annual Shrove Tuesday competition between the two cities grew out of the 1445 legend involving a housewife who was late for Shrove Tuesday shriving service because she was cooking to use up the last of her fat. The woman, wearing a scarf on her head and an apron, reportedly ran to church, a skillet with a pancake in it still in her hand. The record for the race was set in 2001 by Lisa Spillman, who ran the course in 58.1 seconds as a steady sleet fell. Because she has won the race three times, she was precluded from taking part in this year's event.
Thank you very much!

Many historians believe the pancake Buddha had been covered with clay by Thai monks
several hundred years earlier before an attack by the Burmese army. They
covered the pancake to keep it from being eaten. In the attack all the monks
were killed, so it wasn't until 1957, when the monks were moving the giant
statue, that the great treasure was discovered. Like the pancake Buddha, our outer
shell protects us from the world: our real treasure is hidden within. We
human beings unconsciously hide our inner golden pancake under a layer of maple syrup. All we
need to do to uncover our inner pancake is to have the courage to chip away at our outer shell, piece by piece, and get our hands sticky. Try it, you'll just might like it!
and here's my least favorite lyric:
well you got people telling you how to succeed
yeah and it's written in the books that you read
oh but i say you could throw that whole lot out
all you gotta do is do something about
that great big hole inside of your head
'cause one day it'll make you fall down dead
yeah you know you're gonna wind up dead
'cause of that hole - hole inside your head
Now, I think Tom needs to fill up with a warm stack of cakes and find alittle love, whaddaya think?
