Republican National Convention 2012

Watching the Republican National Convention. Not that great. But you can hear the audience chatting away while the speakers are giving these unconvincing lectures about how the Obama administration has been an utter failure. That's besides the point. I'd like to point out the anomalies seen throughout the the broadcast; a lady wearing a pink hat that was draped in tea bags and an old black woman dressed in her sundays best holding a rally sign. This whole theme throughout the RNC is anti-Obama and not even pro-Romney. This whole "We Built It" idea is hilarious. If "We Built It" then "WE SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FOUNDATION FAILURE." The Ohio representative wanted to use a racial slur with saying "it's not like I dislike the Black Eyed Peas or anything..." That was the best line they could come up with to keep from sounding like the klan.

Don't Sleep on Yoga

So I just continued my forth day of P90x, and I have to say that I'm not to thrilled with how I feel. Granted I'm glad I made it through, but DAMN! I didn't know Yoga was this intense. I mean the worse thing I did was the crane. I couldn't even get off the floor and when I finally did I went head first into the floor. So much for body strength and balance. I'm not going to beat myself up too much because I know this was my first time every doing anything yoga and I think I did ok for a first-timer. One other pose gave me difficulty, something about a plough and my feet going over my head...but the result of that seems to be a throbbing spine. All in the name of getting into shape. Next stop Day 5.
