  • CrossFit

    Being a fitness geek, I’ve known about CrossFit for years now. Knowing that it would never fit my jumpy schedule and training habits, I’ve written it off as a great method for general fitness (you won’t win an olympic medal doing CF alone, but it’s going to be incredibly useful in the apocalypse) that simply isn’t for me; around cardio stuff, I only manage…

    Got off the blogging horse a bit there. For the past few weeks, I’ve been working pretty much every night and weekend.

  • Yet another new site

    My creative juices have been flowing as of late. What do I attribute it to? OmniFocus and Getting Things Done. My mind has been clear of all the little constant nags/to-do items, and free to think outside the box. The site? Brett Favre Retirement Watch. As big as the news is, I couldn’t find any one site devoted to the topic. So I made…
