#AlexBain Marathon #17 coming up Sunday Image
#AlexBain's 16th straight year of volunteering and participating in @PEIMarathon weekend.

He & I are the info booth. Between us we know everything (or know who knows what we don't know) We've got chocolate & apples too...
@PEIMarathon This will be his 11th PEI Marathon. He's run the Half-Marathon 4 times & a 5K (the week after the #ChicagoMarathon in '17)

How to fix a hole in your kayak on a deserted island (or at least how I did it I was packed for & planning a 2.5K kayak, 2 nights camping & kayak back. This happened as I arrived at my destination)
1) engage mantra : Do the best you can. with what you have. at the time. Image
2) assemble a bunch of different plastic and rubber things (bottle caps, lobster elastics etc) and test melt them to see what melts and sticks to the boat the best. I settled on 2 discarded caps I found. Image
3) heat up knife and plastic and apply melted plastic to kayak Image

#AlexBain started tying when he was 3 & started talking when he was 6. He typed a lot of gibberish on a borrowed electronic typewriter & then started typing "pumpedi" frequently. His only consistent gibberish & likely not gibberish. What is this "pumpedi"? #ActuallyAutistic 1/
Then I realized what he was typing was "Pumped!" Pumped! was either a TV show (I can find no reference now) or a segment of a TV show that was a kids version of a Sports Desk, co-hosted by a couple of young kids (10ish?) around 1990. @CBCPEI @CTVAtlantic 2/
Google is not telling me what show this was or was on. In 1990 we would only have had access to @CBCPEI & @CTVAtlantic so I'm guessing it was part of their Saturday or Sunday morning programming. Since it's part of #AlexBain's story I'd love to have evidence of it's existence 3/
