  1. If you put things off long enough, they seem to have less and less importance over time. Only the really urgent tasks will continue to bug you. Do those and let the others simmer.
  2. Was this meant to be funny?
  3. @AirwickWithCheese , @AirwickWithCheese , @AirwickWithCheese ,...
  4. I know that luck is always a part of the outcome in any game. That's a big part of what makes watching a game exciting. But when a contestant plays poorly relative to his opponents, it is a bit upsetting to see that contestant be rewarded with a win while his opponents excellent play is effectively disregarded. It is sort of like watching a baseball game where one team is ahead by 10 runs going into the ninth, but loses the game because in the ninth inning, a single hit counts as 12 runs. I think Jeopardy might benefit from a rules change that would somehow lessen the impact of a single, final question.
  5. 3/12 - 20 miles on the indoor bike. 482 calories.
  6. Tonight I learned that the contestants that deserve to win don't always win. Okay, I already knew that. But tonight's show reiterated this unfortunate fact in a big way.
  7. I doubt that @Kzoo is allowed to lick @jsharr on the chin.
  8. This doggie licked its owner on the chin right after this photo was taken.
  9. You must be very intelligent. People who think they are smart are too dumb to know how stupid they really are.
  10. Last night, I learned that Elvis was not responsible for the naming of Graceland. I always knew that Elvis had been into and probably significantly influenced by gospel songs and religious hymns. He recorded a number of Gospel records, some of which I own. I always assumed therefore, that the name "Graceland" was somehow deeply rooted in Elvis's own personal spirituality and religious beliefs. I was so wrong. Graceland is simply named after a member of the family (Aunt Grace) that originally built the home and subsequently sold it to Elvis in 1955 for $100,000. All this time, I thought "Graceland" was this beautiful name, signifying Elvis's spiritual feeling and love for his home in Tennessee. Nope. Just named after some unknown person named Grace.
  11. I owed. They took my money immediately. No waiting.
  12. 3/11 - 2 miles on the treadmill. 10 miles on the indoor cycle contraption.
  13. 3/10/21 - Cycling 5,003 Miles Running 76.6 Miles Walking 249.4 Miles Skiing / SS 77.4 Miles Hours Gym / Other 13:55 Hours
  14. Total forum cycling miles compiled in the Mileage thread. That is slightly greater than the distance from New York City to Hawaii. I hope the riders who did the CA to HI portion had some really fat tires on their bikes.
  15. I wonder if she got an award for them.
  16. During my last one, I declined the Michael Jackson drugs (Propofol) and went through it awake and aware. It wasn't the worse thing ever, but I don't recommend it. Take the drugs. The clean-out beforehand is the worse part. Based on your previous poop post, I'm glad you are doing this.
  17. For whatever reason, she looks like she is thirty-five.
