Hey ... tried your carmel corn this afternoon with the kids. It turned rock hard (after I poured it onto the popcorn and it cooled), is that normal?

5 minutes rope jumping - better, but still lame. I was better than the other guy, so I quit before I started to trip up and came out looking good.

This was a good workout. I feel pretty unconditioned compared to last year, but I did okay. I will ramp this up a little bit.

Felt good to have my heart shooting through my chest.
Nice workout, Roland! I am giggling at the locker room stories. Bare asses on the bench bother me, too. Makes you wonder if they really think about what they are doing. I'm thinking probably not, because just considering that is giving me the heebie jeebies.

Which is why I have such a thing about public bathrooms....I hate squatting over the loo and all I can think about is all the bare asses that have touched that toilet. Gross.

Yes. You have to drizzle in very thin streams OR add something like butter to the mix so it doesn't harden all the way up.

I like it crunchy and just go for the drizzle.

According to some magazine I read last year, there are very few cheek-born illnesses. Whew!

You know we had a similar discussion last year? sometime centering around the cold cold toilet seat.

I can't remember who, but after it was mentioned that sometimes it wasn't cold, they responded with the fact they LIKED the cold toilet seat. It meant no one had sat on it in a little while, where as a warm one meant it was recently used....

They probably don't think about it. Just another example about people not giving a rats ass about the other animals living around them.

I relate!!! A warm toilet seat REALLY grosses me out!! Let's just say that I could go on and on about stuff that grosses me out in public restrooms. Even here at work. I HATE using them. Sorry, Roland, for the toilet hijack.

I sit on toilet seats all the time and haven't caught anything. Well, I haven't tested positive for anything, anyway.

Actually, come to think of it, I haven't even been tested. But I'm sure I'm clean, right?

Yeah.

I haven't tested either, but so far I seem to be ok.
Maybe that's how you catch "weird" or "odd" or other such maladies.

Random toilet seat disease association: I can't find it on youtube, but there was this awsome episode of "House" where he treats a married couple with herpes. They both deny being the cheater, and finally House says there is a very rare chance that one of 'em could've gotten it from a toilet seat. The husband acts so relieved to have it explained, and then House comes in with his "You idiot!" routine. He outs the guy as the cheater because only the one who cheated would be willing to grasp on to such a ridiculous explanation... you can't get herpes from a toilet seat. LOL!

Not as gross, but I don't get why guys go without flip flops in the locker room, either.

Last night's workout was great.

Mobility and warmup

A, Bench, 155 (9), 145 (10/10)

B, Inverted Rows - supinated (14/12/9)

C1, Overhead Shrugs, 85 (10/10/10)
C2, DB Split Squats, 25s (10/10/10) - brutal

D1, Standing Cable Press, 65 (15/12+3/10+5)
D2, Cable Pullthrough - wide stance, 120 (20/20)

E1, EZ Bar Curls, 65 (8/8)
E2, Decline Skullcrushers, 65 (10/10)

Couple of reasons:

1) I'm just not a flip-flop guy in general. Don't even wear sandals in Houston during the summer.

2) It's one more thing to keep up with. I already lose swimming goggles, deodorant, brushes... when I go to the gym.

And I even had to have foot surgery in high school because I got plantar's warts from the school showers, and still I don't wear flip-flops. Shameless stubborness.

On the plus side, it means I can't catch HPV from locker room benches because I already caught it from shower floors. So I've got that going for me, which is nice.

That's good, because flip flops make guys walk like dorks.

Do you lose your Desinex, too?
