The new Digg has launched, and gives us Oregon Trail when it doesn’t work!
Filed under “Experiments With Bodily Functions” I’ve been riding the spin bike a lot lately. I had some self-induced mechanical issues with my TT bike for a while. And it was hot. And I usually don’t get a chance to ride until after 10 pm anyway. So it’s been really convenient. But I’ve noticed that I have a really hard time getting my heart rate up on the spin bike.

Grilled Cheese Academy – A real education Financial Illiteracy Is Killing Us – Seriously, are there any non-profits focused on teaching financial literacy to kids? I will volunteer to help. Tooth Regeneration Gel Could Replace Painful Fillings – Just ordered up some jelly beans to celebrate this news. Facebook Places vs. Foursquare – Foursquare has a game/awards (kinda). The question with FB places is “why?”. Then again, you could probably Read More ...
Heard this disclaimer as read by Boortz…hilarious! Nineteen seconds of commercial, followed by a lot of disclaimer, followed by another 20 seconds or so of commercial. It may be safer just to keep smoking. It reminds me of the old SNL Happy Fun Ball commercial: Kid 1: It’s happy! Kid 2: It’s fun! All Three Kids: It’s Happy Fun Ball! Announcer: Yes, it’s Happy Fun Ball! The toy sensation that’s Read More ...
Disney Princesses, Deconstructed – All you can really do to fight it is to push a fascination with ocean dwelling killing machines instead of Princesses. But it’s an uphill battle. Muscles Remember Past Glory – I strongly suspect fat bellies have the same memory ability. Thanks No For Skipping Your Immunizations! Whooping CoughIs Back – I wouldn’t let Jenny McCarthy give me dating advice when I was 19. Why would Read More ...
I first started running in 2003. Not that I didn’t run before that, but that’s when I became “a runner” (arguably). That’s when I started running with running performance as the end goal instead of running with rugby as the end goal. The first thing I did was seek out some people who were already runners and drain their brains of whatever info I could. One of the best pieces Read More ...
The SIL sent me this cool behind-the-scenes video of AstroRobonaut. COOL! Kind of makes you think that maybe there really are viable alternatives to manned space flight. As you can see in the video, this thing has some pretty fine motor skills. I think we need a whole army of these to be built to fight the wild herd of Space Bigfoots that threaten our freedom.
Oh yeah, this is going to go over really well… First, it was kegs, then couches. Now, Cocoa Beach will consider banning booze on the beach. It’s a sad day when a man can’t sit on his couch and drink a coldbeer (on the beach). Why don’t they just ban “acting-like-a-drunk-idiot”. That would give them the ability to not only persecute the intoxicated, but also the people who are stupid Read More ...
Ok…I like seeing the improvement. This is the exact same workout I did a few of weeks ago, but the 100s were all faster and most of the kicks were faster. The only thing slower in the Devil Workout this time around was the swim down. I think it’s supposed to be that way. Warmup: 10:04 300 100kick 100 Meat 100 – 1:34 50kick – 1:16 50kick – 1:45 100 Read More ...
