    You Tube is full of wonderful videos of our soldiers dancing over in Iraq. This particular one really impresses me and I thought that I’d share it here on my blog. Like I said there is a good amount of videos on You Tube, if you like this one you should check it some of the others as well.

    Teri has been talking about putting up some screens in the basement to partition off a part of it to create an exercise room.  She has been on a “let’s exercise more” kick since New Years.  Yeah, it’s one of her resolutions.  Neither one of us needs to lose any weight, but she has decided that we don’t exercise enough.  I agreed to give it a try, as long as we had a television down there to watch while we were exercising.So we have spent several hours moving things around in the basement to make room for the equipment.   So now we are in the process of picking out some carpeting and screens to make the place a little bit nicer.  There is nothing enticing about bare concrete walls and floors!

    I’m sure that once we get the samsung lcd tv, the Reebok exercise ball, the Proform elliptical, the treadmill, and the room divider screens up, the carpet down, and a small refrigerator down there (for cold water) it will look like a respectable exercise room.  I just hope she (we) stick to it.  I hate to waste the time, effort, and money to set up something that won’t get used!  I do know one thing, though, we won’t be able to use the excuse that we don’t feel like going out to the gym because of bad weather!

    Teri and I have been talking about taking a long weekend and having a nice romantic getaway at one of the Myrtle Beach Resorts next month.  We’ve both been very busy with work the past few months and we sure could some time away together!  I’d like to reserve a condo at an Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Resort near a golf course so that one of the days we could play a round of golf. 

    Ever since Teri’s mother gave her a nice set of women’s golf clubs Teri has been enthusiastic about playing some golf with me.   I’ve been promising Teri that we’d take a lesson from a pro while we’re at the Myrtle Beach Resort.  I think that adding to the day of golf we could take in a couple of shows and spend some time relaxing on the beach.

    There are so many different Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Resorts to pick from, I’m sure that it will take Teri a few days to pick out which one she wants to go to!

    Come to think of it, I think we’ll need to take a little bit longer than a long weekend!  Maybe we’d better plan on five days there instead of three.  That way we can get in a couple of more shows and really enjoy ourselves!  We deserve the break!

    I was just cruising the ‘net and found some animal face-off videos.  I originally found them on you-tube and I wanted to share one with you.  It was about a crocodile fighting with a great white shark.  I found it interesting, but couldn’t find a way to embed it.  You tube said that the embed feature was turned off by request.  So I tracked the original site down, and found it on the animal planet website.  I still couldn’t find a way to embed it.  So I’m frustrated.  While I was there I saw that they also had a face-off between a wolf and a cougar.  I decided to watch it.  I have to tell you that it looked like a video-game animation – it really looked fake to me.  I wonder why they would do that, put a video up that looks so fake.

    Well, I heard that the groundhog saw his shadow and ran back into his little den.  The theory is that if he sees his shadow and is frightened by it and goes back into his den then we will have six more weeks of winter.  I don’t really think it is his shadow that scares the little guy!  Good grief, all of the press and officials and party-goers there gathered around to see him is enough to scare any little critter!  I think we should leave the little guy alone for crying out loud!  We ought to be smart enough to know that if it is a sunny day then anyone would see their shadow and just call it good!  No point in the harassing a poor little groundhog over it!
