DINK Days
With only four weeks until baby arrives, Ky and I are soaking up the last of our DINK days. Next we’re seeing someone special, but last night we decided to mix things up and see British DJ, Fred Again (not his real name, I think?). I haven’t seen too many DJs play outside of a…

Debate Preview
Editor’s Note: This is a special early edition to coincide with the debate. We will be back to regular programming from tomorrow. Tonight is the big debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, and for once, the phrase “most consequential debate in history” may actually have half a ring of truth to it. With so…

Yoga
A local yoga place has opened up down the road, so Ky and I went down to try it out. They’re offering free classes for the first two weeks, so it would be rude not to. I’m not very stretchy, and I’m not a size six female decked out in Lulu Lemon, so a lot…

College Football
Ky and I went to watch a game of college football yesterday in Fort Collins, a town about over an hour away from Denver. It was quite an experience. We saw Colorado State (Go Rams!) take on North Colorado U (Go Bears!), but for us, most of the fun is not in the game, but…

World famous dunny
On our way to watch Colorado State Rams take on a rather enfeebled North Colorado U, we popped into a true enigma of the North American highway: a Buc-cees. What’s a Buc-cees. At its most essential, it’s a petrol station. But that’s like calling Lords a patch of grass, or the Mona Lisa decoration. Buc-cees,…

Sell out?
I’m writing this on a Friday night, watching the opening round of the NFL. The Green Bay Packers are taking on the Philadelphia Eagles at their fortress of a homeground, Corinthians Stadium. Wait, that’s a strange name for a Pennsylvanian stadium, isn’t it? On closer inspection, it IS an unusual name, and the game is…

Leveling Up
Note: I received some feedback that yesterday’s post didn’t make much sense. I was distracted while writing it, my apologies. The gist of it was that while I found the Trump/Lex interview dull, the epilogue was quite interesting. Analogically, it was a bland main course followed by a tasty dessert. Today was a useful day…

Lex
I listened to the Donald Trump-Lex Friedman interview today. It reminded me a lot of the Trump-Elon interview, in that it was really kinda dull, which is unusual, as Lex is a terrific interviewer, and Trump, despite what you think of his politics, can be highly entertaining. It just wasn’t really worth listening to, as…

Deload
Last week I had a deload week on my weight training program. It was my first one, and I have to say that they do have a place for most people, regardless of how they exercise. In the past I always thought a deload week was all a load of hogwash and that a winning…

Blooded
Today we were talking about hunting, and it brought up a memory I hadn’t thought about in almost 20 years. I have gone spotlighting in the past when I was a kid, but one of the main hobbies we had as children was going fox hunting with hounds. It was a lot of fun, but…
