Glad to see we aren't alone

Alex told me that I had to check out this clip on the KLBJ Website. I'm glad I did, because now I know we aren't alone in our disdaine for the Quarter Millionaire. Charlie cracks me up, Dale is the perfect antagonist. Nice work boys.

Also, please send your comments. I love reading them.

More Randomness

I have been on a bit of a fitness kick lately. What I am about to tell you is very embarassing, but I figured I would say it on the radio, but since I am not on the air this week (vacation) I thought I would share it here. On Monday afternoon, I did the "Biggest Loser" workout DVD, and it kicked my butt. Look, I am no fatty, but I sure aint no skinny. I did this thing and my butt and legs are still sore. At first I felt like a total dork for doing a workout DVD with my wife. Then I figured I would be twice as embarassed to do it in public, like at a gym. But at the end of the 30 minutes, I really felt like I had done some work. Pick it up and try it, it is cheaper than a gym membership.

I also committed to doing the LIVESTRONG 60 mile bike ride this fall. I have done 100 mile ride before, so I know what I am getting in to. I enjoyed riding the bike, however, it is tough to ride alone. I really do think tri-athletes are a little strange. They spend hours on that bike...alone. When you ride with a friend, you do a lot of BSing. I will keep you up to date on how I am doing. First thing I have to do is get my bike tuned up.

I'm leaving for New York on Thursday. Kind of a last minute thing, kind of not. It is a very long story that I will save for another day. I love New York. My dad grew up on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. In his words, "it was a terrible place for a kid to grow up." I can only imagine. I have heard that it was the heroin capital of the world back in the 60's and 70's. Anyway, what used to be a horrible place to grow up, is now very chic. I can't believe that people actually want to live, and pay big money to live at 10th and Ave C. Amazing. The city has gutted the interior of the place but kept the exterior the same. I love going back to that neighborhood. Amazing how it has changed. Every time Tricia and I visit New York, we always go by the neighborhood, then stop at a bar across from Tomkins Square Park. Rumor is the play "RENT" was written at that bar. Who knows, some guy sucking down gin and tonics told me that. I could have told him I was Shaquille O'Neil and he would have believed me.

Done Rambling.

Worlds greatest waitress

You may have heard that Tricia and I eat breakfast at Jims Resturant at 183 and McNeil every weekend. This is our favorite waitress, Kim. Sarah and Rose are great too. Gary is the manager. He always has a pack of smokes in his shirt pocket. Go to Jims, say hi to Kim.
