Sometimes people have some nice things to say on my youtube channel.
Other reviewers take note on this guy.Opening minute of his vid was done RIGHT. 1) He's SHOWING you well known knives of similar size BUT...2) his voice is delivering interesting information NOT directly related to the pictures on screen. He's respecting his viewers by cramming twice the info in the same time frame. I was a pro news & documentary producer for a long time. On purpose or not, this guy has demonstrated some skills .
I kinda surprised myself with my second fastest run on regular route today, in bikilas even. It seemed hard to breathe for the first mile or so..kinda weird. I kept thinking, I should not have eaten a spoonful of gaucamole. But it was a good thing because we had a huge dinner tonight in the newly done up dining area. We had more fish tacos!, super bean dip, and a mexican chicken and bean soup. For desert , we had a pretzel marshmellow, strawberry jello desert, key lime pie, and flan. My good bud Rick was in attendance and proclaimed that the key lime was perhaps the best he's ever had. This is a big compliment from a guy who can be pretty picky on food items. Liz done guuud.
Needless to say I am so wonderfully full of food which is making me so tired. I don't think I'm going to be able to watch any Australian open tonight.

BBQ DUCHEBAG
Ran today with no issues. Rarrrgh! Put my lower half in the pool three times for about 30 secs a time. AHHHHHHHHH!!! Felt like my ankles were going to burst. Which was odd, but right after my legs just felt fantastic.
There's a local BBQ joint named Kinfolks. It's been here forever and I've never eaten there. Until tonight! It wasn't as good as the BBQ joint by my home in Veegus, but it was pretty tasty. I liked the spicy bbq sauce actually.
I also had lunch with my Adjustment Bureau mate at a Greek restaurant. Mmmmm Dolmades goood.
Yesterday I got another massive headache after driving to Pensacola. WTH! Something about that drive gives me a headache.
Every now and then I'll get a fairly nasty comment on my youtube channel. This one was especially tasty.
"Gay lisp, frolicking and flameing over 200 yr old kitch/long hunters knife on youtube=HUGE DUCHEBAG. Just like the 9000 mossberg 500 and remmington 870 reviews...Oh I just bought myself my first Kabar I gotta go do a review cause Im so proud Im a big boy now LOL. Please help save the Internet from getting clogged up with bullshit. Stop being Nerds and GTFO."
Criticizing spelling is fairly weak imo when it comes to internet smackdown , but the really bad spelling of douche just cracks me up!
And I watched Super 8 last night. I'm sure I'm the last of my friends to watch this flick. And I have to agree it was very cool! I liked all those crazy little kids. I loved how even with all the 'adult' crazy stuff going on around them, they stayed in their world of what was important; get the girl, make a movie, blow shit up! Another winner from JJ Abrams.

Cyber killing tacos
Mmmmmm I'm really into fish tacos lately. Liz made some killer ones tonight. Tasty and healthy!
Had my third electrician come out today. Third time is a charm though. He was fast, professional, and cost way less than I expected. Win win win! I am actually kinda bummed my second electrician decided to not ever call me back. I thought Gary was better than that.
So today was my third day of running in a row. I was a little sore afterward and thought ,well it's been a while since I've run over 5 miles two days in a row. I know, shocking, but that's what running logs are good for. Turns out, its been since May of last year that I've done over 15 miles in three days. Interestingly I took one day off, then ran some sprint intervals. Then my quad went angry 2 days later. So maybe I'll take it easy the rest of the week. I feel good right now, so that's a good sign.
Oh and guess how many buzzards I counted on the comms tower today? About forty eight!!!!!! It's like a perfect scenario for a scify channel thriller where buzzards are turned into cyber killing machines from the cell tower signals.

Gummy Buzzards
It was not my usual watch. It was a gift to my father a few Chistmas's ago. It's an inexpensive Timex with a large screen, but it has a chrono. I probably didn't need my jacket, but I hate starting off too cold. I walked down a road by my parents house swishing along in that bright green jacket. Here was a spot that my friend got backed into by a car after we ate cola gummies for the first time. Here was a spot that I recall riding my bike long ago and the cold wind just ripped through me registering cold like it never had before. Enough nostalgia, time to run.
I have this thing where if I'm running around people, like cars and such, I tend to run faster if I can. So I try to slow myself down and remember how much more enjoyable the run is if i slowly increase my pace over time. Really, I just want to get into a rhythm where my breathing and movement are comfortable. The body likes rhythm yes.
First I pass a father with his 5yr old son pushing a stroller with another small child. Later I run by a boy trying to jump his remote control cars on the curb. I feel bad for him because he's doing it all wrong. Then I run by a large red truck that stays at the stop sign for a few seconds longer than most. This truck is ridiculously loud. I see a couple of houses for sale and make a mental note to look them up later on Zillow. One was 695 thou since it was on the water. But the inside of the house was sooo old. I guess another couple of hundred thou wouldn't be such a big deal perhaps. Cough.
It looks like it wants to rain. I see Ospreys ( the military vehicles) in the distance as a squadron is based at Hurlburt. I've also noticed a bunch of buzzards in this area lately. So here it was in the middle of the nice neighborhood, a patch of tall oaks and pines was host to about 8 buzzards. So big and black, swooping here and there. I had a faint vision of the old looney toon buzzard.
It was a good run today. Saw plenty of strange people who prolly thought I was strange ( look at that dudes hair!) . Had a car full of young guys yell at me. Waved at some runners and some folks sitting in the driveway. Ran past many dogs and a couple of dog walkers whose dogs obviously wanted to come with me. It was really hot by the time I was done. Is this not the warmest winter in recent years? I should look it up.

Shorty Mullet
I was in Belk the other day in the kids section and right next to the Hello Kitty dresses were size 7 shorty shorts. My jaw hit the floor when I saw them. I said, these are not shorty shorts, these are skankotron shorts which have no business being anywhere near the intended age group. I mean seriously, I will have to upload the picture I took. Insane.
Did you know that there are bunch of videos on youtube of people hula hooping and doing complex and artistic manuevers? It's the hoop life and its a interestin little subculture.
I've run in my bikilas outside now a couple of times and they've actually felt really good. I've run outisde in them before, but these last couple of times, its just felt different in a good way. Do I dare wear them for a longer run though?
In other running news, the Olympic marathon trials were run in Houston this weekend. Meb Keflezighi came in first for the men at 2:09:08 which I think was close to a record. Ryan Hall came in about 20 seconds later. And I'd never heard of the third guy named Abdi Abdirahman. Shalane Flanagan came in first for the ladies. Not bad for her second marathon. She won a bronze medal before in a shorter distance, so I'm hoping she busts out some gold in London. In second was Desiree Davila who podiumd in the last Boston I'm pretty sure. And in third, the new mother Kara Goucher! I recall reading a spread in Runners world about her a while back and how she beats herself in her head easily. Here's hoping that this Olympic chance unleashes the mama power in her!
I was watching Prometheous parody trailers on youtube and found a Dark Knight rises trailer where they put cats on everyone's heads. Picture Bane as a kitty cat with his mask on. Funnny or strange?
I'm feeling an urge to buy a flashlight. Such an odd sensation!
What do you get when you combine a mullet with a mohawk? A mo-mullet, or mullawk? Then what happen if you add in one of those jedi padawan pony tails? I'm thinking this hair style might be for me!

Cooter Bubbles
Today I found a tiny little cooter swimming in my pool. I immediately sccoped it up and put him on the ground. Was it a him? I don't know that much about turtles, or even if it was a cooter. The markings were awesome though and from looking online, I say he was a FL cooter. Where'd he come from? Where's he going to go? It's such a mysterious journey that I was just a sliver of time in. Did you know turlles live a really lonnnnngggg time. When reading about caring for a turtle online, one guy had two of them for 36 years! Talk about a pet commitment.
Ran intervals on the treadmill today. I feel so pumped after intervals....why don't I do it more? I guess it's a question of mental energy perhaps. Hopefully, I will keep fitting those into my weeks.
I downloaded a Hello Kitty game today where you shoot bubbles. It's kind of like tetris with colored bubbles. Thing is, I like tetris. So I find myself playing this Hello Kitty bubble game. I don't think Asa likes me playing her games!

Boiled Heart
I boiled a turkey heart and liver today. As I bit into the heart, I could taste the blood oozing out of the center. I hadn't cooked it long enough!
If you're immediate thought was "what?!! did you even turn on the range?!" then you'd be right. I was cooking it for my dogs and no way was I going to get all Zimmerman on that. Anyway, one dog would eat the liver, the other wouldn't. Finley is finnicky it seems.
I decided to update my ipad software since I've been using it more. I even downloaded some apps! haha I told my friend not too long ago, wth do I need apps for. I downloaded a kindle app. As much as I think I would rather just read a real book, impatience got a hold of me. So I downloaded my latest book. I think I like the kindle better perhaps.
Asa loves the ipad though. I think even Leapster who makes a lot of kids tech toys came out with a leap pad. Her favorite game is a dress up game as well as playing tic tac toe with me. Someday she will be able to out think me in games. That will be a sweet day.
