Get Fit or Die Day 4
Got up early because its my daughters birthday (don't get me started, I have almost cried twice and have been up for less than two hours). Al and my beautiful wife are the two greatest gifts God ever gave me. Where would I be without them...
I didn't want to work out at all this morning. I am not overly sore nor do I have odd pains, I just wanted to go back to bed.
Day 4
45 minutes on the stationary bike and lower body work out on the Bow flex.
Day 3 calories around 1100 I think...weight at 265lbs.
Other items...
-If Sarah Palin was a guy he would be a laughing stock. Writing notes on your hand is Presidential, ya right.
-Who will play Captain America? He has to share a screen and hold his own against Robert Downey Jr. who IS Tony Stark/Iron Man. Yikes.
-Champions Online... want new powers. Maybe bow staff or a Supernatural set with some thematic cohesion.
-Struggling with what comics to start collecting... Which "Wolverine" series is the best?

Get Fit or Die Day 3
So 3 days of working out are in the book. I feel good except for my knees which ache something awful. However, as my legs get stronger and my fat turns to muscle, my guess is that will improve.
Day 2 calories were about 1100-1200. I did resist the Chinese food or I would have doubled my
calories.
Day 3 workout was 45 minutes on the stationary bike and then upper body workout on the Bow flex (circuit style, which I felt worked me harder). Weight down to 265 in 3 days... will see how that progresses.
Other things rattling around in my head today...
- Not sold on the new Facebook layout
-Cryptic Studios...I invested in you, glad to see you are doing something positive.
-Blood Bowl for the Xbox360. If you played the table top version, you will love it. Otherwise it's a fun diversion.
-Like my brothers girlfriend more and more. She is extending her hand in friendship to me and the Mrs and that's important to us. Props to double L.
-Big Al turns 5 tomorrow... tears will be shed.

Get Fit or Die day 2
Day 2 has arrived and I haven't quit! I am motivated, so I don't expect the quitting talk to start till after the weekend...
Day 1, just to put a bow on it, I took in about 1000 calories, which is under where I wanted to be but I will take it. No cheating by me either, but today will be the real challenge. Where I work brings in Chinese food on Tuesdays and it is awesome...I can already smell it... delicious...
Today I did 20 minutes on the stationary bike and Bow flex workout (Legs, back and abs). For those outside of the loop, I have a left knee that is in disrepair, it felt terrible last night, great today, but because I worked it out with ye old Bow flex, I only did 20 minutes on the bike.
Nothing to eat so far today... wish me luck.

Get Fit or Die Prologue/Day 1
Hi.
I haven't blogged in awhile because, quite frankly I didn't have much to say, but alas I have found a reason to drop nonsense on the internet. I am gross. I am 5'9 270 lbs and in very bad shape. I got this way by eating bad things by the bale full and not moving. I hate being fat and sedentary and desperately want to be fit. So everyday I will be posting my workout and my progress, including my lo cal diet. My goal is to lose 80lbs by 10/31/10 or to get my waist back whatever comes first. I intend to blog everyday as part of the routine, so keep my honest internet!
So... Day 1
45 Minutes on the stationary bike and Upper body workout (20 minutes) on the Bow-flex. It is 10 am and I haven't eaten so I will recap calories tomorrow. A couple of side notes...
-WHO DAT!! Hell ya Saints!
-"Avatar" Won me over after the first time I saw it.
- I have hope for the Notre Dame Football program with Brian Kelly in charge.
Thanks for reading! Now go do something productive!

The drought is over...
Greetings!
Sorry I have been remiss in my blogging duties but life keeps my hopping. A lot seems to have happened since my last entry so let me try and catch people up.
Current event stuff...
A bunch of famous people died. Including Michael Jackson, who I didn't care for and didn't understand all the hubbub. Seems that unless you are found guilty of a crime when you die everyone loves you and forgets about the pedophilia and bizarre behavior. Its all so vile that this will be the last mention of it.
N.Korea launches missiles... senseless murders of men, woman and children blah blah blah. I need to stop watching the news. I wrote a book about vampires and monster and I would prefer to live in that world than this one sometimes...
Comics,movies and miscellanious crap...
Also Captain America is coming back to life and while I am getting the story in bits and pieces...it sounds bad. That sucks because I liked Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier as Caps' replacement... The Old Man Wolverine storyline is coming to an end, its pretty cool. Glad I didn't wait for the TPB. I did pick of Wolverine Essentials volume 4 and 5 on the 4th of July. The storyline when Wolverine loses the adamantium and basically goes out to find his place in the world is still excellent almost 15 years later. Love comics!
Ryan Reynolds is the Green Latern! Got to say I am ok with this because he is decent enough actor and fun to watch. Green Latern movie has to be bad ass. Big ups to Nan for teaching my the Green Latern rhyme when I was young and fostering my intersts in comics...
I think I saw a movie in the last 30 days... I was animated with Ray and the Queen of Latiffa phoning it in while John Leguizamo and Simon Pegg rocked it out and saved the Ice Age.
Champions Online
The game looks super bad ass! Been following the leaks more than the boards. I don't get the NDA, they know it will all end up leaked so how they can expect to keep stuff secrets is beyond me. From all the footage I have scene, it looks like CoX younger sister that dresses hotter, is interested in what you say and wants to roll around with no pant on. The combat is crazy fast, no more standing and waiting on recharges, no more silly class or power class constraints. It may be the last MMO I ever play. OR it will tank and I will be forced to pine away another five years until Marvel Universe online. If you don't know where the leaks are... I may help you but you have to know the secret code...
The rest
I also want to say congrats to Kathy and Andrew on getting married. Best of luck. Getting married was the best decision I ever made. My wife is the bomb; smart, beautiful and hell on wheels in the sack, everyday I thank God she picked my and not the sauve looking MFer she was talking to when we met.
I am still writing, finished one book this year and am 10k words from finishing the second. My first book is available at
www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/the-black-arch/6770277
By all means check it out. I am shopping for a literay agent, so if you are one or know one let me know,I will be your friend. I am working on getting a website together, I will blog about that when and if it happens.
I am going on a family vacation next week...going to Wisconsin... NO not the Dells. Going with a police officer friend who says they have night time bear feedings you can go and watch. He better bring his gun...
Anyway thats it for me, sorry has been so long but sometimes you have to ride out the peeks and valleys in silence. Take care, have fun and feel free to post feedback!

What it is, was and will be.
It has been a long week and I feel compelled to share it with you. Why? Because I have internet access, blog spot is free and it makes me feel important. I have been thinking alot this week about who I am as a person, how I relate to people, whats important and what I want out of life... I know this is probably deeper than you were prepared for, just stick with me. I am not the same person I was five years ago and I am not the same person I was 13 years or whenever. I feel like I wasted time being lazy and angry. I am letting all the BS from when I was younger go, I am rededicating myself to my faith, my job, my dreams and most importanlty my wife and kid. They deserve better and I want them to have it. Ok...now on with the nonsense...
I would like to tell everyone how great http://www.youtube.com is. You are saying "Duh, I love you tube already, Stan, Why are you selling you tube?" I am telling you because if you are a media junkie then you may be missing out. If you like movie trailers (I am obsessed...board line obsessed) or fan made movie trailers... it is pure win. If you like comic books check out I'am a marvel and I' am a dc... they are awesome.
If you like comics I say check out Wolverine Old Man Logan storyline and the Ultimatum series. They are great and are relaunching into a new line at the end of the summer/fall. Good art, good times.
Next is Champions MMO news... nothing new except a daily blog site... http://championsonlinedailynews.com/ Sept1 is still the release date...waiting...
I started a new book after wrestling with a few ideas. I want to be able to create a mythos with a bad ass protagonist who is surrounded by funny/interesting sidekicks. High adventure, lots of drama, violence etc.
Hey look I am shilling my book!! http://www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/the-black-arch/6770277
Let me know what you think of the blog here or on Facebook... You can tell me it sucks, I don't mind.
I am four days from the Indy Zoo...good lord willing and the creek don't rise...
