What's the deal with the blurring line?

Sometimes, what I read seems so real that I'm not always sure it didn't really happen!
For example, I am quite certain that Marcellus really never was the same after The Robe.

The Marathon - the day before

Saturday, runners go downtown to Expo to pick up number bibs and electronic chip that goes on shoestrings. Carolyn loves doors, as you can see below. It is said that an important part of running a marathon is carboloading the day before. Spaghetti is traditional in our family, and this was no exception. It was excellent.

Carolyn does a little carboloading too. She likes to show you her teeth in true Barton style. We were so happy that the Scheffers got to be there to share in the event.

CPR

This is a shot of one of the two training rooms from the mass CPR class Friday. There were mannikins mannikins mannikins everywhere! The class is video driven, demonstrated on the big screen at the front, then everyone would practice on their own mannikin. The largest class I saw was maybe 60 or 70 people, and there were 15 or 20 teachers roving among them. Some classes were smaller. I don't think they got anywhere near breaking a record. I wondered what happened to publicity? I never saw anyone from the TV station or newspapers. There were lots of teachers, but really, not so very many students.

CPR Challenge

Today, I am at the CPR Challenge. I'm participating in an attempt to break the Guiness World Record for the largest CPR training session in one day. They are aiming for 2500-3000; the current record is 2308.
