Creature Comforts

Last night I watched that BBC show that has now been Americanized, called Creature Comforts. For those of you who haven't seen it, they take actual audio clips from interviews with people and show these claymation animal characters in funny scenes. A lot of double entendre - for example, imagine listening to two people at a wine tasting talking about the what they are smelling, but you're watching two dogs sniffing a third dog's butt.

Anyway, as I approach my first official Austin Duathletes board meeting, I found the following segment to be pertinent. They ask the characters to reveal something about themselves that no one knows. Since Coach Panther/Board President loves polar bears, AND he has said he'll be racing in the women-only Skeese tri in floaties, I thought this was funny (on the show, the bear reveals that he can't swim, but isn't he adorable in his little wings and ducky tube??)


And here's the rest of the Polar Bear Club, I mean AD Board.

I have authorization from the race director to do the swim in floaties. There is no shame in this. In fact, there is more shame in the fact that it's a women's only race, but I get to do it, because it's my birthday.

Are you eligible for an award? That's the real question. If so, and you win, you need to wear lipstick & a ribbon in your hair on the podium.
