Lance Mackey just won the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, he won a 69,000 dollar check and a truck.
He said, "I can think of 69 ways to spend this check."

I was thinking more along the lines of sexual innuendo, but hey, this is Arfcom.

LOL, I can't sleep tonight, so I was watching the Today show and they mentioned the Iditarod results and one of the guys mentioned that maybe they(the guys) should run the race, and then one of the women responded by saying "What are we going to do........, PULL?"
Then Roker introduced the local weather, doing incredibly well at keeping a straight face, but the weather didn't play and all I heard was a studio laughing its ass off, someone pounding paper on a table(I think) and somone saying"why did you go there."

O' Fuck, I need a life. Or a new girlfriend, but that was some funny shit.

Every time I see this race's name, my dyslexia kicks in and I see it as 'Idiot Rod'.

Heard on the radio this morning that he pulled some trickery at the last checkpoint...
iditarodblogs.com/news/2008/03/12/double-trouble-mackey-wins-again/

Then, all of a sudden, his team came together. The old Mackey magic was back. They trotted smoothly up to Elim. There, he set a trap for King. Mackey had his cooker going and was feeding his dogs when King pulled in, just three minutes behind him. King, who’d been exhausted since Kaltag, fed his team and lay down for a quick nap. Mackey sprung up when he heard the first snore and snuck out. King jolted awake 30 minutes later, figured out Mackey was gone, and got his own team up and out of the checkpoint. But he’d lost an hour on his rival by then.

I also heard that competitors are now permitted to use GPS .  Apparently the "veterans" aren't too happy.

Actually, I work with a gent who has run it, his wife has run it, his son has run it and his daughter plans to run it. They all call it the Idiotrod.

On another note, I work for one of the race's major sponsors. Each year we receive dozens of letters that sound oddly the same -- each telling us about dog torture and how they won't buy our products again until we stop sponsoring the race. We never really do anything with those notes. NOBODY in the Lower 48 buys our products.

Maybe if they ran the race, we could call it the Idiotrod.
