The RumpleMoleskine

• Nothing simple about a complex.  It was bad enough the first time through but second time was just plain hurtful.  Good work if you made it through to the end without putting down your bell or fast forwarding through commercials.
• The keen observer will note that there is only 10 minutes of exercises listed. So sue me (the timer counts the transitions, too).
• Rediscovered the hanging knee raise Qing Joust last week.  Those will stick with you for a few days. Like the Jelly of the Month, it the gift that keeps on giving.
• Thanks to Brown for bringing the iPod Wallet, Speaker and Shave Kit his kids gave him for Father’s Day.  Good to have tunes distract us from the pain.
• Good to have Splinter as Site FNG at Meathead.  We expect to see more of you (and less of your sleeves) in the near future.
• TClaps to Stone Cold, at his first workout since FINALLY running the NYC marathon.  Came back with suspect stories of passing Tiki Barber at Mile 20.  Sure thing, big man.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
