Billie- I joined another gym. I'm in the process of trying to get out of my contract at the wussified gym.

Dale-

Gary- What's up buddy, long time no see. How is everything?



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Hey all, anyone miss me? I doubt it J/K!

Still training, going to the gym 7 days a week. 5 are lifting, 2 are cardio. I'm actually making headway now.

Bought a new car last week. '04 Mustang Convertable. I love it. I'll probably be quiting my job and going part time somewhere so I can finish school sometime soon.

Anyway, just saying hi.

No, not the GT. They had one for about $1,000 more but it would have made my insurance skyrocket.

I'll probably be cutting back to 5 days a week with school starting now.

Bout freakin time you post something.


What are you going to school for?

Whoah!!! Iain, what's up buddy? Bout time I post something? YOU need to post something

I'm going back for Philosophy for my BA. I haven't decided what I want for my Masters yet. For a career I want to do something with Human Rights so I need to figure out my nitch and then go for it.

It's good to hear from you buddy! How's your wife and the coming baby? How's Kyle (?).

I post something everyday

Cool, I would love to go back to school and take some more course, but a) I don't have time. b) I don't want to make time

She is getting big, and is sick of being preggo. Kyle is doing well, had another seizure the other month, while sitting on my shoulders. Had to watch him get a cathader (something I would never wish on anyone)

How's the wifes new job? She allowing you to quit and become a poker pro? LOL
