To start posting regularly, but it just didn't work out.
It's not like it's a big deal... I mean it's not like anyone actually reads this shit.
Anyway... we bought the bikes and we've been on a couple rides with them. We've been doing a half hour a day on the Wii Fit and eating healthy.
So far we haven't seen a whole lot of weight loss... if any. But that's just fine.
I know I'm finding muscles I forgot I had... so they should kick into overdrive and burn off all that fat soon enough.
On other notes, last weekend Leah and I hopped on the Harley and headed up to see some of my cousins in Minnesota. We rode along with another cousin of mine and I must say that I don't think I will ever ride with him again. He was very inconsiderate of the people riding with him. Or maybe I'm just used to riding with real bikers who keep an eye on each other... Either way it was 220 miles in about 7 hours, and I learned that my ass can only take about 200 miles in a day right now.
That's all for now.
I'll post my fat boy stuff after I work out tonight.

P.S: I totally want to go to this.
Who's in?

P.P.S: This is for you Meli.

Wow, there's a lot of cob-webs to clean out in here...
I'll have to see if I can't keep them out of here a little better this time.

A lot's been going on, most of it too mundane to blog about.
The big thing is that Leah picked up Wii Fit the other day, and we've made a concerted effort to be healthier.
We're each doing at least a half hour a day on it, and we even bought Bikes.
My first new bike ever!!!!
It's pretty wicked cool. I'll have to try getting some pictures up after this weekend.

So they say that you're supposed to keep a journal of what you eat, what you do for exercise and all kinds of other stuff. So I was thinking... I've got a website for that!

So... you poor saps get to read all about me getting healthy. I bet you're over joyed!.

So, here goes... Day 1 275lbs 37.something % BMI, Yeah, that's right I'm Obese.

Did a half hour on the Wii Fit. The Yoga was kinda crazy. Strength training is probably what I'll spend the most time on. The Hula hoop game was pretty fun, as were a lot of the other Balance Games. The 3 minute run sure seemed like a whole lot more....
Went and picked up bikes at Walmart. Leah got a purple Schwinn and I got some Walmart brand full suspension one in Silver.
We got em aired up, de-tagged and took em to Dusk and Kellie's and back.

For dinner we had Mac and Cheese with Tuna and Peas from a modified version of a recipe found on a great little site that Leah pointed out to me.
The Mac and Cheese was actually pretty good for being like all low fat and healthy.

Well I think that's about it for now. I've got tonight off from the bar so we might go see the new Indiana Jones movie but we'll see. I do know that we plan to go ride the bike trails tomorrow. We'll prolly bring a camera and document the experience...
Sid out

It's Friday and I'm kinda bored right now... so, I'm going with something that popped into my head while showering this morning. But first a little background for the less geeky of my readers.

Recently there has been a big surge in the popularity of a certain Linux Distribution called Ubuntu. One of the major things people talk about is the way they name the releases...

So anyway, this morning in the shower I started thinking of my own names for any upcoming releases they may have.

And so, I bring you:

So what have you got?

That last post was all too serious.

It's time for some Sillyness!

I logged into Movable Type this morning, fully intending to write a quick post about this weekend.
How nice it was to get the bike out and ride a little bit.
How bored I was since Leah was out of town.
Maybe an update on Luna's slow climb out of puppy-dom.
But instead I got side tracked with I noticed that my Comments had jumped from 421 to 470 in one weekend...
How did my little blog suddenly get so popular you may ask...
Well you see, I seem to have left comments open on an old post, and the comment spammers got to it!
And well... Considering the subject of most of those comments it's pretty ironic that the title of said post was "Do you have feelings of inadequacy?" from back in the Jetjr.com days...
So I've decided to launch a grass roots effort to cut down on Comment Spamming.
Starting today I will be keeping track of the company's that advertise in this way, and I will be boycotting their products.
It may not be much, but if a whole bunch of people do it, maybe they might notice and hold the people they pay to advertise for them accountable.

Because..."I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this any more!"

The world hates me....
I finally get on Twitter last night and setup an account, and now it won't let me update from the website.
It also tells me my account is being every time I try to go to the mobile site from my phone.
It's probably dead from all the traffic from dooce mentioning it.
I sometimes wonder what it would be like to have a following like that...
To be able to crush a pretty major site with a mere mention.
I guess I'd have to post a whole lot more if I were ever to aspire to attaining that level of devotion from my readers.

So anyway, it's been a while since I posted, and for that I apologize.
Shortly after I posted my last I had a life changing event take place...
I bought my girlfriend a puppy for Halmark day
And well.... ever since then it's been a steep, steep slide into HELL!
I kid, It's been pretty rough sometimes, but for the most part she's a great little puppy
And so without further adue, I present to you Luna

Well so far the response to the idea of the shared sight seems to be going over fairly well, now we just need a new name.

Any ideas?

It's been ages since I last posted. I really haven't felt the drive to say anything recently.
It's not like a lot hasn't happened, I just haven't had the desire to type it out.
Christmas has come and gone, a new year has started, as well as all kinds of smaller stuff.
One of the not so small things is that my Domain is going to expire in Feb and right now I'm really not sure if I want to renew it.
If I do renew it I'm thinking of switching the name to something else, and adding Leah as a co-author. I think it would be cool for one of us to post something, and then the other could go in and write about it from their point of view as well.
I'd also like to have a section for each of us to use as a personal blog as well. But of course this is all wants, and will probably never happen...

Oh well, back to work
