  • Money Bomb

    This is apparently a new concept introduced during fund raising for Ron Paul.
    Apparently the guy who masterminded it is also involved in this web site:

  • Falling off

    I have been around 4 days without working out for the first time since I started.  Not by choice.  Just too busy.

    On the plus side I am going to have my chance to watch one of the one of the movies I have been putting off because my wife won't watch them with me.

    Some of the options are:

    Hitman

    No Country For Old Men

    Resident Evil Extinction

    Any suggestions or reasons to pick one of these?

    I may only get to watch one of the three and never see the others.  Also, I'm open to suggestions if there is a better one out there.

    PS:  National Treasure 2 was mediocre.  Cage still isn't Indiana Jones.

    Fat?

    I guess I have been steadily losing weight.  That is a tricky thing to say though.  I never weigh myself because I think it is pointless.  I am losing fat.  For all I know I might be ten pounds heavier because I'm building muscle but my love handles have vanished and my belly is following suit. 
    I highly recommend the book I'm using as my guide.  Combat fitness or something like that.  I might have already put it on my blog but I can't remember.  I can't say that working out is entirely responsible for my getting in better shape but it is helping a lot.  I also work a night job that keeps me moving most of the time as opposed to my day job where I am in the car almost the entire day.
    Everything is going well over all despite the fact that between the two jobs I'm working as much as 88 hours a week but, I have a weird recurring issue.
    I have major unrelenting bad breath.  I have tried many different methods of dealing with it and most are directly in the mouth and none work.  My wife pointed out that even when I exhale through my nose it still smells bad so I am leaning more and more toward an internal problem rather than in the mouth only. 
    That still doesn't tell me how to fix it.  I have some theories but in the mean time this is a bad situation to be in.

    Fat

    I haven't had much of a chance to blog lately even though I have plenty to write about.

    I am doing a new workout program called "Combat Conditioning".  I call it a workout program but that is just the name of the book where I got my information.  So far I like it. 

    I am doing the "Royal Court" to the best of my ability and all I can say is take it easy the first day or you will hurt for two or three days after that.  And I mean Hurt!

    The book makes a lot of sense and I like the fact that no equipment is involved.  I will probably keep tabs on my progress here.  I am somewhere in week 2 or 3.  Still fat but getting stronger.

    Hindu pushups get easier eventually but they are still brutal.

  • Blook

    I plan on writing a fictional book sooner or later.  I am toying with the idea of at least starting it on here.  I don't think I would get very far with getting it published anyway despite the fact that is a decent story.  I am just not a writer.

    I have done many other jobs but anything that might qualify as art has always been beyond my ability to grasp.

    If I do write it here though, I am going to call it a Blook.

    If noone else is doing that already than I claim it.  It was my idea!  Go me!

    If it has already been done I will edit the last few lines out of this post to make myself feel less silly.

    Go me!
