...and my BP yesterday before I gave a pint of blood was 118/68! And... my youngest turns seventeen on Christmas Day. Ugh, he's gonna be seventeen? Hell, wasn't it ME that was just seventeen???
PULL EMERGENCY STOP CORD IF YOU FEEL ANY DISCOMFORT The things you look at and read and contemplate while on a treadmill. Shit like that. Why, hell’s bells I usually feel “discomfort” by just walking up and looking at the machine but it would seem a little silly to pull the cord before you even turn the damn thing on. But still…the things you
Yes, Love is a force to be reckoned with, as far as I'm concerned. I agree. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love...
I have seen these marshes a thousand times, yet each time they're new. It's wrong to call them benign. You could just as well call them cruel and senseless, they are all of those things, but the reality of them overwhelms halfway conceptions. -Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[quote]As bad as it may seem at times, it is still the best way to go.[/quote] I agree. [quote]What a very quote-worthy statement, although I'm sure there are some conservative Christians who would completely disagree with you.[/quote] Thank you Maso. And Matthew 5:48 comes to mind. [quote]I can't say how, but my head feels clearer, after awhile.[/quote] Exactly Nick. Like me, maybe you find understanding in not understanding. Does that make any sense
Your true traveler finds boredom rather agreeable than painful. It is the symbol of his liberty - his excessive freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically, but almost with pleasure. -Aldous Huxley ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Day in and day out I look out between two ornamental Chinaberry trees some
,,,and so it occurs to me as I type this at two-ten in the ay-em (what a day! A surprise inspection at work –we passed, BTW- and I’m STILL jangled by it and just can’t get to sleep!) that this is my sixty-ninth article. But funny thing about this particular sixty-nine, I have come to see here in the darkness of a sleepless winter night, it is not really all t
[quote]Kind of like the Gryffindor sword. [/quote] I had to google that to find out what that was! [quote]I don't know if you've ever heard of Felix the Cat. [/quote] I remember Felix the Cat and, wow, that's going back aways Maso! [quote]But keep a'hold of the bag.[/quote] Always!
I have a big bag of tricks. Sometimes I reach in an pull out one to use if the need arises, like say, when there’s a certain boy in my life who says he hates science and won’t do his homework. And then sometimes I reach into my bag and dig around for one that lets me deal effectively with the drunk, the angry, the exceedingly violent, the sociopath,
It's probably because they have huge...hoses. Yeah. That or the helmet they get to wear. Or maybe it's 'cause they get to slide down that pole... :p
To be in a place where insanity is the norm and then stepping out into the world where people have no idea about what's going on in there. My wife works in a bank and those rare times when she comes to see me at work and there's something crazy going on she just can't believe it. Heh, that's wh
Usually there’s a little adjustment period when you leave, a little quiet ritual you do with your mind. Like…look around at the trees and blue sky and the everyday, ordinary world. It’s always such a contrast to the steel and concrete of the unnatural artificial world you’ve just left. At the grocery store you stop at on the way home (because
Great read, bfd. I concur.
Looks like a good time was had by all. Heh, and I bet especially by mama while knockin' back Margaritas with Aunt Jamie huh? (lol) Anyway, here's a minor league team I like and have seen a couple of times: Link They're part of the Texas Rangers "farm" system.

[quote]We've been doing 4 miles right now. It takes about a half hour...[/quote] WOW! Now that's something to aspire too! And here I was feeling all cocky for doing TWO miles in half an hour! :p
Wonder whatever happened to Snowbear?
[quote]Personally I can't stand gyms. [/quote] Boy I can ditto that! But the gym is the lesser of two evils as I hate cold weather worse.
[quote] They did suggest even moderately walking for 30mins a day, a think person can be fitter. [/quote] Lucky for me that most of my life I have had physically demanding jobs -except for the last 14 years anyway, lol. So working out isn't that big a drastic change for me! But I AM working on her to start going to the gym with me!
I got some versaid once via inravenous injection before my vascectomy (I know! [B]T[/B]oo [B]M[/B]uch [B]I[/B]nformation!) and I gotta say - I could get HOOKED on that shit! WOW! Lucky thing for me getting vascetomies is a once-in-a-lifetime-time thing! :p
My wife is thin (around 95 to 100 lbs. all her life) and I...well, I [I]am not[/I]. But do to some recent warnings I am trying to turn that around! I've already dropped around thirty pounds by watching what I eat, quit drinking, and working out EVERY SINGLE DAY by doing a four mph and 4 degrees of incline walk for 2 miles and then a good half mile RUN on the treadmill. Heh, I can't tell you how much better I feel! I'm even thinking about going skydiving in the spring when I get down below the re
I was going to mention the city I live in has tons of Mexican woman everywhere and how my neck hurts from looking so much. Then I remembered when I lived in New York and how my neck hurt from looking at all the hot Asian women. Then I remembered when I was in L.A. and how my neck hurt from looking at all the hot black women. Then
