Southern California - So Cal needs a long thread "What's Up?" type thread!

Clockwise. And i have an INTJ personality.

The only way i can see it counterclockwise is if i focus on the reflection on the ground (which indicates counterclockwise).

Ditto. If I scroll the image halfway off the screen so I can't see the arm or the hip, I can make it go both ways. If I see more of the image, it's always clockwise. I'm an IN something something if that matters in any way shape or form.

yes, I am. The brain controls all areas of the body, including one's use of her finger.

Careful using that finger of yours. We don't know where it's been! :roflmao:

whatcha getting....road....mtb....something nice for your buddy jay?:D

Sharp looking bike. Less than 16 lbs, Force, nice price, too. Too bad it is a tad big for me, I would've loved to take it for a test ride.

I can't wait to run tonight. I'm going to try for 45 minutes at 5.5 mph on the treadmill.

what are you goals for running...faster?, weight loss? fat burn?....sexy legs?

what are you goals for running...faster?, weight loss? fat burn?....sexy legs?

My goals are to run faster so that I can lose weight from burning fat to uncover the already sexy legs that are there...somewhere. :D

so....try some interval workouts....i would try like a 45-1minute on with 2 minutes slow....

try to cruise about 4.5 with the on part at about 6.5-7mph... i do it for about 15-20 minutes and that will pull fat and increase speed pretty much faster than anything.

Triathlon! :p

I was reading that the other night...the interval thing. I may do that, Crash, thanks. :) I like the crusing at 4.5 part too. ;)

I'm considering training for one of those. My problem is I'm broken about the bike thing. I'm to the point where if I want to train for a bike ride, I think it should be a 100 mile bike ride, which leaves me at an Iron man distance. Ugh. It just doesn't seem right to only get on a bike for 26 miles.

They need a 1/2 mile swim, 75 mile bike ride, 5 - 10 mile run option. I'd be all over that.

i am saying that based on what your goal was previously....i do it a bit faster than that...


but i get paid to be in shape.

Aaaaaaaand, I win. :D

At the gym? Vicki and I have a treadmill at home along with our trainer. We got some Coach Troy running workouts to go along with the bike ones. Very neat!

Sprint distance tri's are about that distance. Also there is the Tin Man (really!) Tri in the Inland Empire someplace...it's super short everything!

I'm patiently waiting for the 0 mile swim, 100 mile bike, and a run to the pub version.

Sheldon, I can't afford $$ or space to own a treadmill, so I'm stuck with the gym! Luck for me, it's in my building.

And a for that Tri thingy...I will eat a live roach before I will ever do a triathlon.

I'm patiently waiting for the 0 mile swim, 100 mile bike, and a run to the pub version.

If they invent this type of Tri, I WILL eat the live roach and compete in it. :D

kinda like a hash run.

Isn't that what we normally call "Saturday"?

:roflmao: Good point.

I barely listed my components for sale this morning (see sig), and I check my email just now expecting one or two offers. [B]14[B] offers - all wanting to pick up ASAP, cash in hand. I must have listed it for too little . . . oh well . . .

:roflmao: Good point.

Or in your case, according to your avatar, it would be Caturday.

Ok, i'm outta here. At least until i get home from work... Then i'll probably be back on here again. :o

OKay, so I'm definitely NOT a cat person, but that cat looks so petable...:p

Crap. I just ate a boca burger and some steamed veggies and I realized...I'm not supposed to eat right before running. :( I hope it doesn't cause a "stitch" in my side.

You know what they say, A stitch in time saves nine.

I don't know what that means, but whenever I hear the word stitch I think of it.

Does that mean you'll hold my hair out of my face? :p

I seriously love Craigslist. The nicest gentleman just came by to pick up the bike components - no haggling, just straight up courteous and friendly. Of course I plugged BF and hope he comes on. It's not only because it's a great venue to sell odds and ends, but you never know what types of people you encounter -


Last weekend I sold a Wii remote to a Filipino girl in her mid-twenties who came by on a motorcycle. We ended up talking for a bit about random stuff. Nice, cool chick.

Last month I sold my couch after getting a new set. Buyer was a nice middle school teacher who came by and gave me my asking price in cash. Then was busy but called ever so often, and ended up picking it up. Three weeks later.

Earlier this year I sold my drum set to a Hispanic couple that needed it to play for their church's worship band. While the husband was checking out the set, I was simply touched by their humility and the way they were so excited about getting it and putting it to good use for other people to enjoy that I cut the price in half. Their gratitude was unending to a point where I was a tad embarassed.

I sold a slot machine - (it's a weird story - a patient had given it to me as a gift way back when I was working for a laser eye surgeon - it was a full-blown Vegas slot machine that weighed a gagillion pounds) - guy was extremely excited because he had wanted to surprise his ailing father with one for his birthday but they were all in the upper-hundreds/$1k range and he couldn't afford it in the midst of medical bills and expenses. I've never seen someone so excited about a slot machine before . . . except in Vegas.

Just a few tidbits from my Craigslist selling experiences - there are more but I don't want to bore everyone with them.

I need to start using Cragislist. I've got tons of stuff I need to unload. I stopped using Ebay due to their high fees and the hassle of sending stuff out. I have not sold anything since.

Before I joined my tri club I posted on Craiglist once, in their "platonic section", looking for men or women to work out with.

All I got were pictures of genitals.

:(

On that happy note, I bid thee "Good Night!"

Sweet dreams, SoCalers.

Boy....I can't imagine going to bed this early Joy...... Midnight is my usual bedtime, regardless of how early I have to be up the next morning. Maybe that's why I often fall asleep during the middle of the day...:D

Ovo, why the sad face?

Oh, and, George, since you run, you might appreciate this. I ran for 45 minutes tonight :D 45 minutes! I couldn't believe it. I even tried doing some intervals on the treadmill, but those just flat out suck. I think I'll just stick to a steady pace.

ugh I don't know. I don't feel like myself lately.

ugh I don't know. I don't feel like myself lately.

You don't seem like yourself, lately.:(

Young man, you need to shake things up a little and get back into a good mood. You got a whole life of disappointments, possible debts, jobs you don't like, apartments that suck and women who diss you before everything works itself out. Trust me, I'm old and been through it all. :D

Now, go ride your bike.

Well good for you Mary! We have a treadmill at home but I can never get comfortable on it. Since there is a dirt trail conveniently located just outside my house I'd rather run it in the morning. Keep running and I bet you'll notice a difference in your cycling performance. :D

Good job ME!!

(not George, but I have been known to run a few miles here and there :) )

I had today off, and I tried to go to yoga class this morning. I am STILL feeling weak from that bug I had. But I'm also getting VERY antsy....

Well, I know it's way too soon, but I feel like I've dropped a tiny bit of blubber. I swear my butt and thighs looked smaller :p But now that I'm doing the treadmill, I'm going to start running outside around the RB like I used to. One or two times around, 3.25 -6.5 mile run isn't too shabby! :D

Thanks, Mark. I forgot that your a TRI nut like Joy. :p I hope you get your mojo back soon. Sometimes those bugs can have lasing effects for a few days. Take it easy!

ugh I don't know. I don't feel like myself lately.

Yup. Just as I suspected. The new Ovo.

And this is a bad thing ?

Heck, some people pay a lot for that treatment.
