  • Congratulations, Jeff, on taking the big step to quit smoking. You can do it!

    My resoltions are simple, but challenging:

    1. Zero e-mails in my inbox.

    2. Keep my desk clean.

    Best wishes to all for a successful and prosperous new year.

    Congrats!

    Hey, pick up running as a new vice, that's what I did 🙂

    http://amileaday.blogspot.com/

    Just bought a nice new Calypso Cruiser (bicycle)... 7 speeds... nice super heavy duty (emphasis on heavy) steel frame... balloon tires for a tender ride... easy on the knees. I'm also getting my old unicycle fixed up (yep, can still ride it)... now that takes some leg power... no coasting. Curl a couple of 5 - 10 pound weights while riding that...

    What - no flaming swords/ bowling ball/ chainsaw? 😛

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

    Hah!~ Duct Tape kings. Red Green makes my side hurt.

  • Congratulations to Jeff Moden on the struggle to quit... We're pulling for you. Having been there, and (so far) succeeded, I know the pain. Had to leave some friends and some habitual hang-outs to be successful. Would not even throw a pack to someone when I had just waxed the office - and myself into a corner; I told them I'd rather re-wax the floor than to touch another pack - ever. He tromped my floor. I re-waxed. The craving does ease over time, but haunts for a long time. I don't even let myself think about it.

    Heart and feelings and prayers to the troubles of Domagoj Orec of Croatia. I once visited a place I nevously felt was "God-forsaken", but then met some of the most humble, real, and decent people I have ever had the priviledge to meet. Know that you are not alone, and may you know happier times.

    New Year's resolutions to improve my career?

    To serve more, complain less, eyes wide open for solutions, eyes half shut for finding criticism.

    Actually - on second thought, you probably don't want to have your hands on a chainsaw while trying to kick the habit...:) (good luck with that - it's a tough one).

    As to Steve's original question - I too am trying to keep myself on an exercise regimen. I keep "falling off the wagon", right into my desk chair for hours.....

    Well, there is the handle-bar mounted 110 mm automatic loading pork chop cannon with the heat seeking sight... 😛 On the unicyle, I try to keep things simple... 5 - 10 pound whole pork loins... frozen, of course. :w00t:

    If you are doing this on a Unicycle, I would recommend going with a Recoilless Rifle Pork Chop Launcher. 😀
