Two slaughters happened within the past 12 hours. At about 11 or 11:30 pm last night, the Miami Heat spanked the Dallas Mavericks for 24 points. Just a couple of hours ago, Argentina beat Serbia 6-0. For those of you who don’t know a lot about soccer, that is a severe beating. Just like my 401k in the past few weeks, teams have been taking beatings and are getting into the position of having to pick themselves off of the floor to come back and compete.
A shoe bomber blew himself up in a mosque this morning during prayers. Come on guys. Why? Let’s think about this. Nobody wants terrorism, no one needs violence and you are hurting more than yourself when you commit acts of terrorism. You are hurting your families, friends and fellow citizens. Why?
Anyway, it should be a nice rainy weekend. My grass could really use it too. Jerry invited Leslie, Nolen and I to his house before the fight for fajitas and beer. Should be sweet.
Lastly, I’m trying to stay in shape guys. I’m weiging about 167 today and I plan to get down to 155. That’s 12 pounds, but I might actually lose more. When I get back to Lords Gym to do a bit of boxing training, I can actually lose up to 3 pounds within one workout. Anyway, I just want to be stronger, lighter and faster. It’s nice to have a lot of energy and not feel lathargic all the time. I’ve cleaned up my diet for the past 3 days. Lots of cereal because of the whole grain and fiber. Just a couple of beers too. I’m sure this Saturday will be a different story on the diet front.
