The following is from Tom Johnson-
On April 18th 2005, I will be competing in my 8th consecutive Boston Marathon. It is 26.2 miles of both exhilaration and pain. Each year since 1998, I have laced up the sneakers and run the marathon for a purpose. This year my running has taken on a new purpose. I am now training and running to help The ALLY FOUNDATION. The Ally Foundation was established in memory of Alexandra Zapp and exists to safeguard the lives of women. Alexandra was murdered in 2003 at the age of 30. The goal of the foundation is to prevent future tragedies by educating the public about violent crime against women and advocating for improvements relating to the safety and welfare of women. Please see the foundation website at www.theallyfoundation.org for more information. I am committed to completing the marathon. While I know the running of the marathon is something I will have to go at alone, the other challenge is the one I truly need your help with. This year I am committed to raising $2,500 by April 18, 2005.

As in all cases, losing a loved one is a tragic and a devastating experience. It is a subject that really hits close to home for my family. My grandmother, Lillian Johnson, was a victim to violent crime in 1984. The memories of my grandmother and the knowledge that I am running for a group that advocates for the prevention of violence will be my constant reminder that I am contributing to the efforts to prevent future tragedies and that will take me across the 26.2-mile journey.

Training for the marathon is a major challenge, but I have done it before and I can do it again!!! It is a rewarding endeavor and I know the money we raise will help to prevent future tragedies.

I am asking for your moral support and if possible a charitable contribution. Please give as much as you can, but know that every donation helps and is tax-deductible.

Please send your donation made payable to The Ally Foundation to:

Heading to the primer of Fever Pitch tonight at Fenway Park.
Posted by Hello

Click here for the Boston Globes review of "Fever Pitch"
http://www.boston.com/movies/display?display=movie&id=7188

One funny story from last night--
Leaving Fenway Park last night (heading to the movie theater) we noticed a HUGE line outside the movie theater. J.R. Assured me we had passes to get right in (basically cutting the 1,500 people trying to get a glimpse of a famous movie \ baseball star). Once we get to the front of the line we were approached by a very unfriendly security guard who barked "where do you think you are going"? We showed our passes and were then greeted with "I'm very sorry gentleman, right this way" (lifting up the velvet rope to let us in). At this point we looked like we were "important"... I take this opportunity to stop, look up to the huge crowd (sitting in football style bleachers) and make a dramatic wave with my arm followed by blowing kisses and saying "Thank You" to the crowd... The crowd started to get excited and was cheering wildly (snapping pictures like crazy)... There was a buzz in the crowd saying "who is that"???

I think even Ted Williams would flip over in his freezer after witnessing my pathetic display.

By the way-- I give this movie 4 baseballs out of 10
Let me save you 2hr and 6 minutes of your life. Posted by Hello

Aghhh, let me put it to you this way.... This movie is terrible.
Before going to this train wreck I was very excited about the cast of the movie. (Bruce Willis, Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke, Rutger Hauer, Rosario Dawson, Benicio Del Toro, Britney Murphy, etc...) In the end, I was scratching my head and wondering what in the world I just watched.

I give this movie - 1 out 10
