The Hub-o-sphere

blogtopus.jpg ** We tried to find a Marathon runner/Twitterer, but these were our favorite Monday Tweets:

-- "My sister blew chunks yesterday after the marathon...it was totally hardcore. So proud!" [@simedia]
-- "Historical trivia... on this day in 1980: Rosie Ruiz runs the shortest ever Boston Marathon." [@bostonbyfoot]
-- "Just gave a semi-drunk marathon runner from BC a McNugget on the T" [@komadose]
-- "I'm embarrassed for the low I'm about to reach in Google-ing: Katie...Holmes...bra-less...marathon." [@gonowgo]
-- "Just got asked if I ran the marathon. It either means I a) look in-shape b) look like hell or c) it was a pick-up line." [@AVStempel]

-- With over 25,000 runners participating, how many do you think were sporting "marathongs"? [Librarian on the Run]

-- Marathon costumed runners have nothing on the folks at Saugus Senior Center and their Hat Day. [Wicked Local Blog]

-- Hey Robin from Boston, Amnesia John from San Fran forgot to remember to get your number. [Something Stupid]

-- Not sure what's more surprising: that Somerville is in the running for "All-American City," or that in order to win they're putting on a "whimsical" skit involving a makeshift Green Line car. [Boston Herald via Hub Blog]
