Fleeing from the Dawn of the Living Dead…

Friday, October 31st, 2008

I was downtown Edmonton at Enbridge Pipelines, disconnecting and bagging computers today pending a move and I am lucky to have gotten out of there alive! Everyone on the floor was a zombie, with hatchet marks and other boils and gross festering wounds on their faces just like the human flesh eating dead zombies [...]

Run 89, 2008 - I just don’t get it…

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

I considered running again today and almost canceled because my knee wasn’t feeling all that great. But then I decided that maybe I’d slap a knee brace on like last time only this time I would go slow. Turns out I had a great 11 km run with a 6:42 pace. I [...]

Run 88, 2008 …my IT band is still on strike…

Monday, October 27th, 2008

Another 11 km which started out famously at a 6:40 pace until km 6 then I completely fell aprt in spite of the fact that I was wearing a knee brace. It is very discouraging, especially after a week break from running. My doctor’s appointment is not until Nov. 10th, but I will [...]

Points to Ponder About the Flood…

and the author is Dr. Kent Hovind of the Creation Science Evangelism web site. I will be quoting from the article and trying my best to comment on it, but it will be hard for me because, [...]

Karate 66 - Training for the Devon Tournament

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

I just realized something that kind of irritates me. In fact, it irritates me to no end but there’s nothing I can do about it. I won’t be at next Tuesday’s karate class because months ago we bought season’s tickets for the Edmonton Opera and we are going to the first one this [...]

Karate 65

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Tonight’s class was preparation for the katas in the upcoming tournament but no sparring. Marilyn crawled back from the dead and managed to stick it out in class after a nasty bout with the flu but she was still a snotty nosed little brat, ha ha! We’ll see if she reads my blog [...]

Update on my current physical and mental condition…

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

My running has improved a whole lot but I am currently “hamstrung” by an unknown knee problem. I have an appointment to have it checked out Nov. 10th. This is to rule out anything serious and maybe to get a physio referral. I am quite sure that it is an IT band [...]
