This is what happens when ambitious workers are underutilized

Well Ironman is officially over.

Only one cyclist cheated death (and boggled the average mind) when he insisted on continuing the race even after a motorcycle plowed into his bike. Ironically, the motorcycle may have belonged to someone from the IronmanLive crew.

I managed to wrangle that tidbit of info from the cops but they couldn't or wouldn't say when or where the collision happened. I gave what general info I could to Carolyn who was covering the "what went wrong with the Ironman this year if anything" angle of coverage.

Being that not much else had gone wrong, this might pretty much be it for her story.

She did not get much concrete information from Ironman officials for the better part of an hour. Restlessness was setting in. Carolyn is ambitious and doesn't want to sit on her ass.

Finally, she turned to me and said, "Do you think I should call the police and tell them, 'Look this is what the police told us and we want to know if you can verify it."

"You mean you want to call the cops and tell them this is what the cops told us and ask them to tell us what they said?"

This is what happens when ambitious workers are underutilized.
