Still More Fat that Muscle


Tried to do a full-body workout this morning and I ain't nearly in the shape I thought I would be after two months of hard riding. (only two months?!) So I'm going to start alternating between biking and weights. If I'm gonna be half a quarter ton, then it's gonna "mus-kle," as that great philosopher Popeye the sailor man once said.

Today is the last day before I take five days off from work (including the weekend). The break is coming at a good time.

From News of the Weird:

At Northern Ireland's Belfast Zoo in September, Phoebe the chimp and two others managed to climb out of their compound, and armed security guards had to come round them up. In an effort to frighten the animals into submission, they fired shots into the air, and according to the reporter for The Guardian newspaper, the chimps not only became docile at the sound of gunfire, but they put their hands up. [The Guardian (London), 9-8-05]

Four days. Oh boy.
