The other day I was out running errands. I was caught across town at rush hour. I decided to eat dinner and head home in a couple of hours. As I sat down to eat a 2 hour meal at Chili's, I noticed a few patrons with the same idea. They were ordering drinks. I thought I could have a couple. The scolding began... "why on earth would I want to do that?" "If I'm not going to get drunk, why even get started?"..."I don't want to get drunk!" "It would be nice...

It's two weeks into my exercise routine. I'm amazed at how quickly I can change. Routine is everything! I feel I must do something each day. It take me but a few seconds to decide and out the door I go. Where did I get so much energy? I feel addicted to moving. I went from doing nothing to doing everything. Wow, what happened?

I installed a small gas motor on it for long trips. The thing really flies down the road. I'm getting back into photography now. I ride the bike for miles and miles taking photos and video. I carry a hammock for some serious chillin' -- talk about an escape! When I get tired of peddling I just...

I watched MythBusters tonight (Tivo) and they did some drinking experiments. They got totally hammered to see if coordination and attraction, to the opposite sex, would be effected.

I wondered if I were on that show and sober, if I'd be able to do that "for the cause". I wondered if any of these three stars were "sober". Hmmm
