Ahhhh, the obstacle course…..
Such fun (NOT)
Yet, what I wouldn’t give to be
able to run it one more time….
Apropos of nothing…
I ‘m watching a TV series from the 80’s.
The family is sitting in the kitchen, eating sandwiches.
I have a sandwich in front of me as I watch.
What caught my eye? Bread was freakin’ HUGE back then.
I’m looking at my sandwich, thinking “WTF???”
It was television bread. Subliminal messaging – you need
to go buy more bread – yours is inadequate.
I remember when I was in school the old pull-handle vending machines
selling candy bars for a nickle that were bigger than the “extra-large”
ones they sell at gas stations these days, Hell I used to walk 1/4 mile
to a station close by me they sold 10oz bottles of soda for a dime! The
thing with bread is they add more yeast to it making it LOOK bigger,
then after it’s sold it shrinks. I’ve noticed that as well.
I told my wife that we are getting a bread machine and a good recipe
for home-made bread. It tastes better and is far healthier than anything
they sell at the store… Plus after the first kneading you add a tsp of
cooking and blend it in, it slows the drying out process. I use extra virgin
olive oil, far less HDL, plus it lets me joke that it’s the only virgin this old
man will ever get! (cue the unified eye roll and soft groans) 😛
It sounds like they were expecting the community to be like
most areas, struggling to survive and barely managing to
eat, much less thrive. Instead it’s a mini-Jerico, just needs
help to expand and grow, and maybe back-up in case of raiders.
Plus Gopi will get better and find a place in the Empire that
staying where she was could never provide.
Teresa loosen up! I never ran an obstacle course with a stiff back
and short steps. I get that it’s not a real issue for her since she’s
not a recruit, but look the part my dear.
My sensei was a real ball-buster, if you did it wrong or fell he’s
whack you with across the back of your thighs with this 6ft long
bamboo stick he’d carry. Trust me, it’s a hell of a motivator! I’m
glad I didn’t grow up in Korea, they DON’T mess around!
