Tutoring is closed down for the next 6 weeks and it's my prime motivator for walking ... back and forth to the Sac State library. 35 minutes each way.  This past summer I would walk over there to feed some free range chickens in the morning but they're long gone.  Sac State has plenty of squirrels to feed so there is that.

So, on a daily basis, somebody post a reminder to me like "Hey Twank, have you gotten off your fat ass and walked today?  Turning into an obese sack of shit at your age will be a real pain."  Something tender and encouraging.

Thank You in advance.

Will walk to the store shortly to buy turkey gizzards.  Great in soup!

P.S. The 5th ed. of Lehninger Biochemistry is great!  The 1st ed. I learned from 35 years ago wasn't that good, plus my biochem. prof. Helen Birecka (a Polish immigrant) sucked.  This time through is just plain fun.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.

No, not yet but the cat window is closed so that Truffles won't follow me down the street when I go momentarily to the store for those turkey gizzards.

Thank you for asking.

Hey Twank, have you gotten off your fat ass and walked yet?

we'll keep hassling till you go.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

Why yes, I just got back and my freezer is stuffed with four 2 lb packages of turkey gizzards.  How kind of you to ask.

Skipped walking the past 3 days and now I feel terrrrrrrific.  Tomorrow it's the squirrels and the bridge over the American River.  I find that once I get into a habit I tend to continue.

Thank You for your support.

There is a joke here - somewhere - about mass transportation, bike lanes, and the Kreb's cycle.

Darned if I can come up with it.

There once was a man from Nantucket,
Whose ... how does that go again? :)
