health section

Gymbox, a London fitness center, now offers the option of lifting humans instead of weights.

"The gym's five human weights, ranging from 66 to 342 pounds, can be used as free weights or on specially adapted weightlifting equipment...the human weights can shout out encouragement to lift exercisers' spirits...Weightlifters can drop dumbbells that get too heavy, but you shouldn't necessarily do that to a human weight."

questions:
how would you even get a hold on a 342 pound human person?
why would you want your workout equipment to yell at you?
Necessarily?

umm

what does it say about me that amazon recommends this DVD:

"Unlike anything else you've seen, CAT DANCERS is the mesmerizing and haunting tale of the husband-and-wife team who first engaged the world in the art and tragedy of exotic cat entertainment. This strikingly candid film lays bare the circus-like lives of Ron and Joy Holiday, childhood friends who improbably pirouetted from dazzling careers as world-renowned adagio ballet dancers to performing with an incredible, if dangerous, cast of lions, tigers, and jaguars."

actually, now that i read it, this movie sounds awesome. thanks amazon!

news.

here's the news:
The Pilot King (Chesley "Sully" "Berg" Sullenberger), aka the man who landed a plane safely in water, called the library because he lost a book. In the plane. That he landed. In the water. Safely. He wanted to pay his late fees. Is this man real? Guess what else? It was a book about professional ethics. I DON'T BELIEVE IT!

News item #2: my friend Alissa has a blog. it is hilar. http://www.cupcaketrafficjam.blogspot.com/
check it out.

listen to this:

it is outrageous. 40 FBOMBS IN 4 MINUTES. a new record.
seriously though. it's insane.

so is this:

this guy is crazy. snuggies are a gift from god.

where are you lynelle?

"The true purpose of art was not to create beautiful objects, he discovered. It was a method of understanding, a way of penetrating the world and finding one's place in it, and whatever aesthetic qualities an individual canvas might have were almost an incidental by-product of the effort to engage oneself in this struggle, to enter into the thick of things."
Paul Auster, Moon Palace

happy february

yeah steelers. i'm still in bed, listening to the weepies. 1 month no smoking, 1 week no coffee. soon i will cut out eating, then sleeping. but seriously, i made veggie chili for the laufman superbowl extravaganza, it was a hit. you should all try it out:

today i will finish reading Carson McCullers' The Heart is a Lonely Hunter (so good, so sad), perhaps play the ukelele, perhaps work on the blanket i am crocheting. then molly and i are going to bikram yoga aka sweatfest 2000, then we will shower together, then the laufman clan and i shall all convene at outback steakhouse to celebrate father "bill" laufman's 59th bday. wiley made him a football shaped cake last night, it was really good, but less good and less healthful than my chili. sorry wiley.

what did YOU do for the superbowl?
