Anti - terrorism and Gym passes

so.
i was had.
but not for long

Turns out that the comment on the last post was a joke. But I read it at 6:30 in the morning, prior to wiping the sleep from my eyes, prior to getting dressed. I was eating a bowl of Vanilla mini wheats. I almost choked.

Kudos to Horan for having the advantage of a few times zones, and the thought of linking the website to it directly. For a few minutes. I wondered if they really were going to tap my phones and fill my ass full of shrapnel if I said the wrong thing

but I dont make alot of terroist jokes anyways.

But to celebrate the occasion, I wore my Osama Bin Laden socks to work

they have a picture of Osama, with a rocket in his head, and it says.

"Where I am?"

no its not a typo. thats what it says. The Koreans need an editor.

the socks set me back one whole dollar.

In other news I bought a gym pass.

I have had one before, in korea, where i was frequently yelled at by the korean gym nazi, who would yell at me, numbers in Korean, implying that i should be doing a sit up or a push up for every number she yelled. and if i didn't?
she would slap my arm.
violence can be the answer, because when she counted, I obeyed. I hate being slapped.
she looked so proud of herself, to see Jamie and I , red faced and panting after doing an infinate number of reverse incline sit ups. the ones where your head is lower then your feet.

I am looking forward to the routine of the gym. I think i am even going to buy an Ipod. or at least a shuffle. I went in the wave pool today. its alot more work then one thinks. I am bagged. could be the not one, but two litres of Sangria Travis and I consumed. or maybe it was the waterslide where there are no rules.

I am still a bit baffled by it all.

you mean to tell me that I can go down that slide with 2 or 3 people? at the same time? and that i dont have to go feet first? I can go head first? or on my knees? or straddling my friend? I can start one way and end up another? i can dog pile little unsuspecting kids? and the lifeguard is not going to blow his whistle at me and issue a warning?

has anyone heard of a single place that you have been allowed to do that? even once? since 1977?

I haven't! not since kids no longer ate dirt and worms were not somthing that you collected for a good time.

now they want me to wear a helmet to sleep for god sakes. what if i fall off the bed?

It was more fun then I expected, as i walked up the stairs, waiting until I saw the kid in front of me hit the water and exit the pool. and then took my turn, knowing that Travis would be down after he saw me hit the pool.

it took a couple of 10 year olds to change my ways.
but it didnt take long.
I am sold.

anyone want to tandem down the waterslide with me?

kinky date idea

I'll keep it on the top of my list.
