Joke of the day...

Ok, so this one may cause you to roll your eyes and snicker to yourself.

A cowboy walked into a bar and ordered a whisky. When the bartender delivered the drink, the cowboy asked, "Where iseverybody?"
The bartender replied, "They've gone to the hanging."
"Hanging? Who are they hanging?"
"Brown Paper Pete," the bartender replied.
"What kind of a name is that?" the cowboy asked.
"Well," said the bartender, "he wears a brown paper hat,brown paper shirt, brown paper trousers, and brown papershoes."
"How bizarre," said the cowboy. "What are they hanging himfor?"
"Rustling," said the bartender.

Panty tip of the day...

Most of you know I'm a big fan of Women's Health (see side link), the best magazine I've ever subscribed to. If you purchase a copy of it this month, there's a side benefit. Near the front, there's a pull-out perforated coupon for a free pair of white cotton panties from Victoria Secret, woohoo! And a $10 off coupon for the VS newest line of sports bras.

Spare Me My Life...

Ok, I have a slight strange and unusual addiction to fitness informercials. I'm always interested in the newest video, exercise equipment, miracle cure. Over the years, my mom and I have done Sweatin' to the Oldies (man, he's odd), Tony Little's Target Training (what is that guy on?!?!), and my favorite that I think really works and is fun anything from the Firm series. Perhaps, because it's the only one I've used that hasn't featured an over the top, hyperactive male. Recently, B bought me the new Firm Transfirmer. I tried it out today and it was fantastic. I highly recommend it if you're into home fitness. I also tried out the Windsor Pilates ring lately and was relatively unimpressed. I'm not a big fan of Pilates anyway (probably because I am so weak through the core), but it just didn't do it for me.

Anyway, all of that to say, this is the oddest combination fitness video of all time. Watch it all the way through even though it's a bit long.
