Somebody had to remind me today that I have a blog. With so much going on in life and all it becomes hard to figure out when and what to blog on. I may very well transform this blog into something more topical (while still keeping all the flash g@mes)… I’m not sure yet.
There was just a great little tidbit on Military.com [article link] about the benefits of working out with free weights (regular dumbbells and barbells) versus the benefits of using machines built for specific exercises. I actually use both depending on what muscles I’m working and where in my routine I am.
It’s the middle of winter here in New York State, and most people associate Lake Placid with the Winter Olympics. Well, several months ago — during the warm summer respite — on a beautiful summer weekend we spent a few relaxing days in this quiet town located in the middle of the Adirondacks. I wanted [...]
I hope everyone has a safe and joyous New Year tonight. I’m relishing the few days I’ll get to relax and try and recover from the hustle and bustle that each December brings. Perhaps I’ll even ponder a resolution or two…

Okay… while I sit around and not post to my own blog I catch a few glimpses of talking heads on TV proclaiming certain financial doom. And I chuckle. Because I could care less… because even in my short decades on this rock I’ve seen enough market activity to have already seen this pattern before. [...]
Wow, how can my life be so busy when I’m not getting anything done? I’ve been toying with the concept of setting up websites that auto-populate themselves with content that I’m interested in. Basically I would take a topic (like politics) and retrieve the latest posts from like-minded sites… display those posts as headlines over [...]
