Wow! I can't believe its been this long since I wrote but no one is reading this so I guess it doesn't really matter. I always think of things I am going to write but then forget them when its time. must be old age! Ha- Health is still pretty good. Its easier to pull a muscle or strain something and it definitely takes longer to heal from such things but over pretty good. Still go to the gym everyday - well 5 days a week. I'm not too much on it but I do go and I do a pretty good routine. Hopefully, it is making a difference. Overall: NB450! Both my parents were gone before 70. Max will be 30 when I am 70. That's probably one of my biggest hopes in life is that I can make sure my kids are on their own and doing well before I go

NEWS

When I was a kid I hated the news. It just did not apply to me (It did I just didn't realize it... or care) People always say and its true - The news is always so bad that they don't bother with it. I feel the same but it seems now like you kinda have to stay in touch at some point or another. But the news is so dramatic these days. The storm that's coming always seems to be a very dangerous one with high winds or heavy down pours. Everything seems more horrible than the next. More murder, more violence, more rip offs. Everything seems dire. I must admit I was watching that BP oil leak underwater cam feed and that is probably one of the scariest things I have ever seen. Its just gruesome and that plume rising out of that blow out preventer thing looks like a really pissed off monster just billowing out getting more pissed off by the minute. Not only that its really pretty sad. I hope its making everyone think about we doing to ourselves and our world
