  • Journal?

    I got to thinking today about the structure of how I want the training log to work when I write it. A feature that I definately want to have is a place to keep comments in a journal type fashion about the workouts themselves. When I was in college, that was the best part of…

    New Shoes

    I tried a new pair of shoes for this evening’s workout, the Asics DS-Trainer X. The jury is still out a little on whether I like them. We ran a Baxter Woods workout, which is basically a 600 meter down hill trail followed by two sharp turns and a 200 meter uphill, making for a…

  • Tea Masala

    We finally got around to kegging the light beer and brewing up another light beer. The “Morning Light Ale” that we kegged is the traditional recipe, basically. The one that we brewed today I played with a little bit. The base is the same, but I used the Tea Masala that Andy brought back from…

  • The Whizzinator

    I rather like the name of that…the Whizzinator! Onterrio Smith was caught last month at an airport with vials of powdered urine for his Whizzinator. Basically, it is a prosthetic penis designed to thwart drug tests. Smith has already been suspended twice in the NFL for substance abuse (not to mention being kicked out of…

  • No Suit for You!

    So, Mike Nolan was told that he can not wear a suit and tie on the sidelines. The reasoning (as gotten from profootballtalk.com‘s talk with V.P. of media relations Greg Aiello), is that “For the past eight seasons, all sideline personnel, including head coaches, have been required to wear team-issued apparel on game day. This…
