The Beat Goes On

Well folks, not only did I finish the Julie Hughes Triathalon, I WON MY DIVISION.  Thank you very much.  In 1 hour and 45 minutes, I ran 5 miles, rode my bike 15 miles and swam 1000 yards.  Numero Uno, the Cream of the Crop as it were...I see there is a question on the right side of the auditorium; go ahead Mr. Kerneski, what was that?  How many people in my division?  Well one...me.

If I sound like a wrestler, perhaps its because I have been noting the passing of the Macho Man Randy Savage.  The man, quite possibly, was the best promotional interview in WWF history.  I've decided to include two of his best here for your viewing pleasure:  The Cream will rise to the Top and The Beat Goes On.  If you liked those you might also want to search Macho Man interview with Mean Gene.  Enjoy.

The training goes on for the pledge run; this week I will have to check out my stunt liver as we are having the Centennial of Naval Aviation Celebration Fly-in at work.  Lots of networking to do with my DOD brethren, which leads me to the more important lesson this week of not teaching your kids to read.

Why wouldn't you teach your kids to read you ask?  Well for one, if you have cable TV, the directory portion on the television presents the challenge of knowing exactly when the adult movie titles come up on the schedule.  There is nothing more exasperating than having your young reader blurt out "Why are Moms on the Prowl?" as you are looking for the NHL playoffs (and I was-seriously); the only thing that is worse is the video section in any Southern California Frye's Electronics Store, which, if you have been there, goes from the best films produced by Disney to Vivid video's budget pile almost immediately, thus leaving you with the physical challenge of blinding your children while also retreating around the other families who have also stumbled onto this hidden Valhalla of adult self-gratification.  Nothing is better.

I just read that last sentence, if you are able to as well, I congratulate you and thank you for your diligence in reading possibly the most entertaining blog on the entire internet.   Next week, I'll go over my continuing quest to destroy the Golden Nostril Hair and my training efforts in preparation for the 6017 Memorial Pledge Run.  Have a great week.
