JT likes sat radio.  It is the only place left for edgy broadcasts.  Mostly JT uses XM on long trips in the car.  At work he's able to listen to O&A on the web.  

Santa was pretty good to JT.  His favorite gift was the Tivo from his gal pal. JT already has it rocking and networked with his other PC's.  No more waiting for marathons.  JT is in the process of creating his own Chappelle, Maury Povich, WS of Poker, NFL Films, and The Girls Next Door marathons.

JT is glad Chappelle is back for season 3 and can't wait for the Flava of Love to start.

Another Pet Peeve

I may have ranted about this before but its fresh on Gro's mind. While they work great on post patterns... Gro hates when people put silly quotes on their email signatures. Oddly, the usualy perps are either in IT or corporate accounting. case in point received today:

"When you get you the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on"
     --FDR.

No need. When Gro gets to the end of his rope... he will hunt you down and beat you with a sack of oranges.

Bus can not for the life of him understand why the NO MINDS who are the security at the airports (TSA after 9-11) continue to strip search the 89 yr old frail old lady and the 3 yr old boy.  Now Bus is all for security measures to keep us safe from the terrorists, but when does COMMON SENSE come into play.  Bus always smiles when he rolls through the metal detectors and it never fails he always sees somebody almost naked because their belt buckle set off the detector.  Bus is a big believer in PROFILING who is the most likely to cause problems.  Just ridiculous how stupid the security folks (rent-a-cops are).

As Dawg mentioned earlier, personal trainers are arch enemy #1 to the Dawg.  Dawg was in the gym the other day and noticed a few personal trainers having their clients do the most ridiculous exercises.  Dawg knows that these trainers wouldn't do those exercises themselves, so why would they subject their fat, out of shape clientele to them? 

Dawg would have all his clients doing the BFS program even if it were an 80yr old grandmother.  She would be doing cleans & deadlifts and not the "stand on the ab ball and balance on one knee" exercise.  Some personal trainer is getting a 2 1/2lb plate laser thrown their way courtesy of the Dawg if he sees said exercise done again.

Dawg,
Regulator couldn't agree OR disagree more Actually, Reg agrees completely.

Agree- in regulators new gym...very small, local normal people working out.  The "trainers" are the biggest losers ever....Reg always sees them eating Wendy's and eating snacks.  Last week, they put out a tray of cookies right by the exit of the gym.  Regulator wanted to go crazy when he saw this crazy act.  Why not make us wait in the McD's drive up window line while exiting the parking lot.
Secondly, it is typically the people that LD11 referenced in his post that are constantly talking....They talk 95% do circuit training on all my machines the other 5%.  In THIS gym, the TRAINERS are the ones that talk the whole time.  I swear one time Reg saw the trainer stand by the ab area talking with the lady for the entire 45 mins!!  Later caught the guy saying "You are making HUGE GAINS!!!"  BAH!!!

Disagree-
There was one trainer at Regs last gym that was the epitome of personal training.  In fact he was more of a motivator than I have ever witnessed....
Imagine these rich, fat, people all hiring this same guy.  He would literally start yelling at people to "push it out" and COME ON!!! ONE MORE, when these people are lifting the equivilent of the pancakes I eat in the morning.  Immediately after said set, he would start going into deep tissue massage on the muscle, getting in the persons ear about the next set.
Meanwhile, he was sporting the Fanny pack, with the cell phone hangin' off the side with wired earbud ALWAYS in his ear.

Reg wanted to beat him up....the only way he was helping these people was mentally.  It was really a site to see.

More Airport Shenanigans

Flying is a simple process. Park, Check in, Security, Gate, Board, eat pretzels, deboard, get bags. go.

Why do people make one or many of these issues difficult? Anyone who has flown ONCE since 9/11 should know how this system works. kiosks, baggage claim, and debaording have been covered.

Carry on luggage
Unless it's a laptop Gro does not bring a carry on at all. Everything goes into the checked suitcase. Half the time you end up on a regional jet that has tiny overhead bins anyhow... and do you really need that maxim magazine for the 1-2 hours you're going to spend in the airport... read skymall!

Security
This is like the mental olympics. 1st you've got people with belt buckles the size of dinner plates trying to get through. Then you've got the people that wait until the last min to take everything out of their pockets, or they leave their coat on and have to go through again. OR... you get the TSA chump telling you to take your sneakers off... um, there's no metal in sneakers buddy that's why I wore them to the airport!

Regulator, was that trainer wearing full length spandex witha pair of tube socks stuffed down the crotch and sporting a sweet curly mullet?

Sorry dood,

He would wear a polo with the words "PERSONAL TRAINER" Be-Dazzled across the back and on the front pocket.

He refused to wear the gym provided shirts all the other people wore.  They couldnt fire him bc he had 10X the clients anyone else had.

[Lyco80]

I always wear merrills to the airport for easy off and easy on.  I hate waiting behind schlubs tying their wingtips!

If I could, I would rather take the trains but since WWII they have mostly stopped running on time and at a useful pace - not that I am that old but I do read about such matters from time to time.

Hey - any New Year's Resolutions?

Love reading your stuff guys - funny, profane and always human.  Good copy.

Pat Coleman pays respect to the LL on the Front Page???
From the front page... notice the bold print highlighted by Gro

Average playoff game was a blowout

[/b]

Despite the expansion of the field by four teams, the 2005 NCAA Division III playoffs were the least competitive since automatic bids were instituted in 1999.

The average margin of victory of a 2005 playoff game was 20.7 points, nearly three touchdowns. The near-stomping was the highest margin of victory in the seven years of the current playoff system, surpassing the 20.1-point average in 2002.

Is there any doubt that this refers to a good ole fashioned Liberty League MONKEY STOMP? Gro believes so, and he knows that Pat has to keep it professional on the front page or else there would of been a picture of a monkey wearing a D3Football.com t-shirt and a pair of Timberlands.

Pat, intentional or not... the LL is in your head!

[radiomike]

I put an option in the front-page survey specifically for you guys but not sure you have taken advantage:

Current Poll
What matchup would you most like to see next season?
Bridgewater/Christopher Newport: 5.0%
Coast Guard/Norwich:2.7%
Hardin-Simmons/Trinity (Texas):5.4%
Ithaca/Rowan:8.8%
Linfield/Mount Union:57.1%
RPI/St. John Fisher:4.5%
Trinity (Conn.)/Any non-NESCAC:15.2%

too narrow...should have some more options...Hobart-Ithaca, Fisher-Hobart, Union-Alfred...Maybe we can have a LL only at the top of our forum?

With WS poker fully loaded on JT Tivo, JT has been going back-to-back.  Watching Phil Hellmuth get Monkey Stomped by an old Italian and another newbee is classic.

Hellmuth is such a baby.   JT is dreaming of the day he takes the brat down.

According to the brat, "He lost to the worst players in the world"

Speaking of all these fanny pack wearing trainers AJ has a story of a good crazy trainer


The said trainer is maybe 5'5" and 180 lbs if he is luck and is blessed with the name "Dyke" yes that is his first name...poor little fool.

Any said trainer asked AJ if he would help him and his power lifting buddies spot one night.  Dykes turn to lift heavy and packs 650 lbs on the bar.  He prep was nothing short of jaw dropping.

Step 1:  Play Ac/DC as loud as possible so AJ can hear no one speak

Step 2:  Insert hot peper nose inhaler into nostil while wrapping knees

Step 3:  Squit little plastic lemon filled with lemon juice into mouth

Step 4:  Hit tounge with 9 volt battery

Step 5:  Walk up to bar and head butt it so forhead split open

Step 6: Bang out the set

Words cant even come close to what this was like to witness in person but it was pretty funny and amazing

Pat, that made gro's day.

Now, Gro's off to the monkey stomp mobile!

p.s. AJ... good story, you sure that wasn't lauer?

['gro]

GAWD... IF YOU LISTENIN'.... HELLLLP!!

Gro needs help NOW. Future boss (current boss is retiring, he's the replacement) jokingly tells Gro that he needs some help with inventory tomorrow... it's an office holiday and Gro wants to sleep in!

The thing is... he had a sh!t eating grin the whole time... was he joking? or does he take pleasure in ruining Gro's holiday plans... inventory takes ALL FRICKIN DAY.

WWLLPPD?
