What can I say?!

Happy Hump Day People!!!

This is usually the day where I talk about my post workout pain....so I will only mention one thing. My left ass cheek or my left gluteus maximus is strained. Hard to walk....but....I can suck it up! I am sitting here at my desk...and I can literally feel my left ass muscle. WEIRD!!!

I have been waiting patiently to see the movie 127 hours. Saw it last night with my roommate. We watched it at home on my fabulous 40" flat screen...surrounded by little creatures; 2 cats and 2 dogs to be exact. We were all snuggled in. I think James Franco is a genius. My goodness....he should have totally won the Oscar for that movie. Blew my mind. What also blows my mind....is the knowledge that there really are people who hike the canyons....just like the character from the movie did. ARE THEY INSANE?

Here is my thought; I know a bunch of snow boarders that like to do the unknown. They go to places that no one has gone to before or shouldn't go to. BUT because they are relatively smart...they carry beacons with them. As a sailor, my life rafts have beacons attached to them, I have life preserves with beacons on them, the ship has a beacon. I mean common folks....if you want to be an extreme anything.....be friggin prepared. It totally upsets me that this guy went through all that....could have died....all because he didn't think of the possibility that something could go wrong. Not cool man....not cool! There is nothing wrong with be overly prepared or being pro-active about the possibilities of what could go wrong.

Anyhow....I loved the movie. I loved James Franco in it. I really really do want to go and see the Grand Canyon. Anyone care to join me for that adventure?  Here is a pic of the real dude.....
