My wife is working 12 hour shifts today and tomorrow. She's earning our vacation in the Turks and Caicos for November. [&o]
My son has had his hockey camp, we went out to breakfast afterward, he's now at the skateboard park and quite happy, I've finished my run and shower. Life is good, Torsten! [8D]

Sounds great!
At least, I was mountainbikeing for about two hours. A little bit too short so I ask myself to go swimming or running now...

Only 15 months until Ironman Florida '10. [;)]

I know, I know... [X(]
At least, I'll get new cycling shoes next weak. While they are immense expensive - 200 Euro - I hope they are stiff enough to ensure my foots won't hurt any more after just 70km. I will also test a new saddle to fix the problem with my seating pain as its caused by the pressure lasting on the arse-msucles for hours.
If both works, nothing can stop me to ride 600km per week [;)]

Good morning all!
My mother sent me an email with the picture of the new dog that is tasked to cost the familys nerves for the next decade:
A lovley little boy!
Great news, Torsten! Don't worry, he'll still be a puppy at Christmas time, just in a bigger body. [:D]
He'll still be a puppy in 10 years time as well [:D]

We got a couple fun minis out in Cali. I'm on the coast with guestrooms; c'mon out.ORIGINAL: USS America

Swim is all I do well; thighs suck, so can't run worth a crap and don't bike worth a darn either, but second quartile of the B class ain't too bad. I gots 'night before so get yo ass to bed' and 4:30 pasta for a 9:00 am start.
Are you really one of those boggie till ya puke people? Damn, I snagged a couple of ya'll to do some cockpit grinding for some races, but boat racing is all upper body - lats, abs, bi's and tri's, with a bit of lower back to hike. Well, they had fun, scored more than nominal in Puerto Vallarta, but ... sigh ... left me, because their lower body was begining to atrophy. Sheesh. But am always looking for a another sucker ... er ... person interested in expanding their sports horizons.

.14.2.1.3 CATASTROPHIC EVENTS
There is always the possibility of an untoward “event” occurring in the course of a repair that results in the catastrophic destruction of the ship. During any repair, there is a .01% to .0125% chance of a catastrophic “event”
Eeek! What's that? "Mynok has landed from Mars and vaporized the Yamato to turn its metal into puppets for his little girl"? [X(]

Post bike ride Tithe, the AI in AE is more aggressive but is willing to send bombers out without escort. I will take advantage of that[:)]. Nothing like exercise to focus the mind.

John, I'd love to crew for some races. If only there weren't transcontinental airfare involved. [:D]
I'm excited for our week of sailing classes starting next Sunday evening. [:)] After that week, getting BKB and BCC certifications, I should know almost enough to be dangerous in a sailboat.
I've done around 8-10 triathlons in the past, but not yet a full Ironman distance. I've completed 2 half ironman distances, and several shorter, sprint races. It's great for me, because of the variety. With 3 different disciplines to train for, boredom doesn't set in so fast. My limitation right now is time, although my son is getting old enough that I can sneak out for runs or bike rides while he stays home.
My reference to IMFla '10 was teasing Historiker. He's planning to do that one. [:)]

I suspect he was, just after a few "boat drinks." I understood him fine.

Actually, I met a pro when cycling and he convinced me to do it. But you may well show up there, too, we can start as a team [;)]My reference to IMFla '10 was teasing Historiker. He's planning to do that one.
I'm a little bit afraid that AE might well be too much for me. I was at turn two of scen 1 clicking around about three hours and ending it with saving, not by ending the turn.
On the other hand, I never liked to play the AI in witp. I never passed APril 1942, I guess I just need a human opponent. But without training, that might be rather stressing...
