The Iron Game
It never gets easier. One of the few things in life that doesn't become fun and easy once you put years of practice into it. The weight is always heavy. The 1st time I ever benched it was heavy. The last time I benched the weight was heavy. It is ALWAYS hard.
The great thing about lifting is it toughens you up for life. You learn to appreciate what hard work and comittment means. There is to quitting when you have 300 pounds on your back and the only thing going through your head is that it will be even heavier in a few days. Once you get hard core into the iron game you learn how far you can push yourself. You can watch someone else lifting and watch them strain but YOU know they have more in them. The new guy doesn't realize that he has more in him.

An hour, Day, and week of Ron....
Mark came by for a visit this weekend. Bear was pretty calm around him unlike last time. We are cleaning out Jerry's office. It is always tempting to hold on to things but everytime I do a major cleaning I learn it is just not worth it.

Halpat bike trail
Rode the trail by myself. Pretty much non stop with no rest. 1 lap and road clean -- little shaky in palmetto expressway

This week in baseball.........
I've been hitting the weights hard but need to start squating more frequently. Started mountain biking again. Had a great night ride. Need to hit the ftp trail soon. Didn't play racquetball. Tough to do both.

Bring it!!
So I'm finally hitting the road bike again. Have a little loop around the neighborhood I'm adding to a lil bit at a time. Feels good to be back on the bike.
Also started up the weights again. Just trying to get the feel and get some strength back. Seriosly need to stick to diet and get weight down as quickly as possible

The biggest difference between Republicans and Democrats is that they disagree about which of your rights should be taken away first.

OMG Ponies!!! Er.. I mean ticks
So yea we have f'n ticks everywhere in the house. I pull 5-10 off Bear everyday. Now they are crawling up the walls in mass. I'm going to go heavy duty and get a spray illegal in 5 states. Tried almost everthing for Bear. Got Preventic Tick collar which is supposed to be a good solution. So I'll see how that works in the next couple of days.

Going to start using linux again after a few off years. Spent time online and learned some more of the advanced options of vim I had forgotten. EX split screen between files and copy paste between them. I also never knew of a hightlight text option.
Also had to learn that webhost I use chroots the ftp site but the actual web path is differnet.
1st REAL POST (obligatory "yea!!!")
Really late at night but wanted to customize this perl script blog. http://www.blosxom.com/. I like more of a simple clean look. Wanted a "paper" backgound but I lowered the transparency for readability but now it's not very noticable. The footer image I found online at juicedpenguin.com but I'm not sure who the creator is. I'm going to redo my website and go with a clean white look. Old one was black and orange. I figure a blog would be the main source of info.
