Oh YA!
Hey ladies!

That's right. (e:jim) is out of town at a conference, so I am a bachelor of the weekend. Oh, a playa such as mwaself knows exactly how to play while the kitty is away. Meow. That's right ladies, I will be... watching Woody Allen movies and cooking fish.

ahem. I really need to learn how to cut loose. I could be a swining bachelor taring up the town, but instead I will laugh at joke about Voltaire with squid breath.

Meanwhile, (e:Jim) is in Portland. His only assignment is to eat a bacon doughnut

I am so sad I'm not going to portland...
apparently voodoo donuts had to take their pepto/nyquil hangover cure donut off the menu at request of the FDA.

enjoy your swinging weekend.

(and btw that was me honking at you on Bird a few minutes ago while you were walking ben (green mini).)

fellyconnelly - 05/30/08 06:07

Communists Are No Fun
Howdy,

I generally believe that most Communists are not all that much fun. You wouldn't want to bring a bunch to a party to liven it up. Take the leader of Russia's Communist Party, Sergei Milinkovich, for example. He is calling for a ban of the new Indiana Jone's movie because

"Why should we agree to that sort of lie and let the West trick our youth?"

He said many Russian cinemagoers were teenagers who would be "completely unaware of what happened in 1957", when the film is set.
"They will go to the cinema and will be sure that in 1957 we made trouble for the United States and almost started a nuclear war.

"It's rubbish... In 1957 the communists did not run with crystal skulls throughout the US."

The Associated Press news agency quoted Moscow Communist official Andrei Andreyev as saying: "It is very disturbing if talented directors want to provoke a new Cold War."



lame Communists, lame.

a bit hypersensitive I'd say.
leetee - 05/26/08 18:58

leetee - 05/26/08 18:39

Well I guess the communists you hang out with are different then the ones I do we drink vodka from the bottle and dance naked around the fire and what ever one of the hot girls is the least hot I get, Kidding of course.

I do understand that there are many versions of history and that they differ from what side of a war you are on or your perspective. But see that is history that kids are taught. Yes you can say that there are some facts that could be one version of history that show up in that movie. Yes you could say that it paints a bad light on Communism. But it is supposed to be an action movie not a true story and as long as it is taken that way I don't get why they are so upset. Well there is one reason why they could be upset and that is if some of the stuff in the movie is true and they want to cover that up. But are they really any different than us. If they made and action movie that made Capitalism look like Americans where greedy and only cared about them selves and where the bad guys wouldn't we try to ban it, or at least be very upset for no good reason also.

Allentown Athletix: Hold on a sec
Category: gym
Hi,

Due to something, I am not sure what even though it was explained to me, we have to wait until Wednesday to sign up...

Bill, the owner is on vacation and can't be reached. Ya, the people there know two of us have already signed up and they have the list of people. But, we have to wait.

Sorry everyone.

-James
james - 06/02/08 18:56
yippy skippy!

I saw you riding to work this morning while I was on my way to the gym.
libertad - 06/02/08 17:58
I'm in.

Allentown Athletix: Extra Awesome
Category: gym
Hi,

I signed up on Wednesday and have worked out there twice so far at different times. Seriously, I have never had to wait for a machine. Even if I am doing three part supersets I still don't have to wait. They must run the cleanest gym. Not only do they keep the place sparkling clean, they also compel their clients to be clean. I never see anyone leave a machine dripping sweat like a fountain and not clean up with sanitizer.

The test of any gym is the locker room. Bacteria and mold should be right at home thanks to the warmth and humidity of four private shower stalls, a sauna, and jacuzzi. But I could see no mold anywhere and there was not a funky smell to be found. It is seriously clean.

For you cyclists you don't have to lock your bike up on Allen like I did when I went there to talk to them. You can park your bike right in the building and it is under video surveillance, so no one will mess with it.

Bill Mahr is the owner and the one who arranged our group rate. Not only is he super easy to work with but he is also one of the nicest guys I have ever met. We got to meet the day I signed up and we chatted for ten minutes. He is the kind of guy you would love to get a beer with.

So, everyone should sign up. Go, do it now.

-James

  • edit*

Oh, we don't have a group name. Just go in and say that you are part of that group signing up.
tiburon1724 - 05/25/08 14:45
When I first went over there just to check the place out, I mentioned james group to the girl and she knew what I was talking about. When I went back to sign up, the guy had no clue, but then Bill came out and took me into his office and took care of it. Sounds like Bill has to do it and I got lucky he was there because it was like 8pm one night.
libertad - 05/25/08 13:47
They wouldn't let me again even though I told him that two people already signed up. The guy was really nice, but he couldn't do it and asked that I wait until Bill comes back on Wed. evening.
libertad - 05/24/08 21:18
i'll sign up tomorrow.
james - 05/24/08 19:41
Tad: Peter is mistaken. I have signed up. And someone else has already signed up. If they give you a hard time next time you can tell them to look up my name on the list to see that I have already signed up.
libertad - 05/24/08 13:15
So I finally work myself up to start working out today and they wouldn't let me sign up. He said we all have to go in together because there was no guarantee we would all sign up. I think his name was Peter.
fellyconnelly - 05/24/08 10:49
well if there isn't sweat dripping off the machines i just aint interested...

seriouisly though. jealous.
james - 05/24/08 01:09
Taddy: You can pack up all your worldly possesions then work out your aggression on a punching bag. Do it!

Paul: Oh yes you can. Do it!

Dakechick: Sign up. Do it!

I would love to go to Mia's class tomorrow, but I just beat the shit out of my shoulders and legs today. I think if I showed up tomorrow I would just be a moist noodle.
dragonlady7 - 05/24/08 00:13
Man I gotta sign up.

Tomorrow morning is THE LAST Mia Mauler class-- she WON'T be doing it over the summer after all.
Show up at 11:30. I swear you won't be sorry.

I had sore muscles on Wednesday from last Saturday's class, and I've been doing it since January.

Anyway-- she may start it up again in the fall, but tomorrow is not to be missed!!!
paul - 05/23/08 23:22
Can you sign up on the weekend?
libertad - 05/23/08 14:07
I'm thinking about signing up tomorrow. We shall see cause it is definitely a packing day for me.
