Back to the Health/Pain Club this morning, and I'll be keeping my comments in strict adherence of the advice in my previous post on the subject from Waterman.
~
Another big mistake was wandering into the group exercise room where they hold the aerobics classes. It was empty so I thought there would be no harm in taking a peek....
~
The freaking room is three sixty degrees of mirrors. I generally don't mind viewing the image of the Mountain of a Man from one standpoint... but seeing front, back and sides simultaneously was extremely unsettling.

Mitt, Newt, Barack
It looks like the choice for the Nanepashemet Nod will go to either Mitt, Newt, or Barack.
~
Weird Names.
~
I'm not too psyched about this election selection.

Care Less for Carolina
Looks like Newt Gingrich is going to win the South Carolina Presidential Primary.
~
I'm still not ready to place the Nanepashemet Nod.... even with Sarah Palin endorsing the Gingrich candidacy.
~
As for Romney... I'm wicked conflicted.
~
I believe he has business skills by virtue of his work at Bain Capital and the Utah Olymipics. But he is also such a finger in the wind politician.
~
I have close friends who are very tight with him, and I also have close friends who hate his guts... for good reasons. And I highly value both friendships.
~
As for Newt winning in Carolina... I had some business dealings down there... and every time left with a big assed knife sticking out of my back. I know that I shouldn't generalize... but people in Carolina can kiss my ass. I could care less who those back stabbing rednecks vote for.

Health Club
I went to the Health Club this morning.
~
The place has been seriously misnamed. It really should be the Club of Pain. After some torturous sweating on the stationary bike, I wandered through the machine room, sat on one and moved some levers that somehow had weights attached to them.
~
Then I got on this machine that let you do pull ups and dips while standing on some off setting metal plates.
~
There were a number of friendly people who looked extremely toned, and I tried my best not to make eye contact. I got the distinct impression that they had no idea that they were in the presence of a Mountain of a Man.
~
The locker room and showers was my favorite part. The Club had this shower head that offered a number of alternatives to get yourself really clean and I took full advantage.
~
Feeling a little sore now. Maybe I'll go back tomorrow.
I'm not quite sure what you are driving at Waterman. But I agree that I'm lucky to have you, and I'll heed your advice nonetheless.

Really? I'm the only one who is going to write this?? MOAM, you're lucky to have me.
The next time you go to the health club, do not (I repeat, do NOT)say that the locker room and the showers were your favorite part. Regardless of context.
You are welcome.

Digital Evidence
I finally got all of the internet cameras installed around the Sundance House.
~
So now, I can leave anytime I want, and constantly check to see if any despicable shitheads are trying to steal my precious stuff.
~
I'm not talking about you.... per se....
~
Maybe I'll go to Maine and test this out.

Stupid Sports
I don't like sports where you can die if you make a mistake... like mountain climbing and downhill skiing. Granted you can die doing anything. A couple of times over the past few years, I thought that I was going to buy it while I was writing this freaking blog.
~
But those types of things... dying while doing normal stuff, or even playing basketball... are not what I mean. You generally don't die in these activities by making a mistake.
~
But climbing a mountain and slipping, or skiing headlong into a tree just seems to be a dumb way to go.
~
Seems to be a lot of skiing accidents lately.

Ok then... Raj...

Money Talks
Made the New Haven commute today. I planned to leave at 7:00AM and get back by 3:00PM.
~
Left at 7:45AM and got back to Marblehead at 7:40PM.
~
Little bit of ad lib on this one but it ended ok.
~
With Martin Luther King Day coming to a close yesterday, the holiday season is officially over. I have to say that it was fun but I'm glad it's over. Things started out hazy the night before Thanksgiving and pretty much stayed that way past New Year's Day.
~
That's not to say that we didn't break a sweat at Nanepashemet Telecom, but we definitely were not operating in the zone. Today, I started to feel dialed in again. Ready to tear it up.
~
BTW, thanks for all of the purchases that you made at the Nanepashemet Blogging Apparel Store. Between that and the Nanepashemet Books that were flying off the shelf, it kept myself and the Indonesians in the Black big time. For all their whining and bitching, the Indonesians were really cool and they shut up immediately when I came through with the holiday windfall.

Proclamation from 2012 Peep of the Year - Kerry D'Orio
I do not know what I did to deserve this ultimate honor. Of course i would never ask.. I can tell you that I was probably the most annoying and funniest person ( well in my narsassitic mind) at the pre thanksgiving day bash. I can honestly tell you that I payed for that night the next day. I would have Sold my first born to Satan, well not really, for a day of relaxation. some may say I alreAdy married satan himself, aka Brendt .
~
Hailing from The Live Free or Die state has shaped my attitude. I shoot guns( AR-15 is my fav), eat red meat and wear real fur. If you don't like it then you can ...... I believe in being myself. I do not shape my beliefs based upon my audience. I refuse to cater to the Queen Bee types( news flash we are not in the sorority house anymore) and am not in to GNO's ( girls nights out). My close friends, who i cherish, have nicknamed me The Canadien Boyfriend.
~
Another bonus is my popularity at home. My kids are loving this! Francesca is in awe. She said to me, "Mom , your peep of the year and Alex is wizard ofthe year!" holy shit! My daughter just compared me to Selena Gomez! For those of you unfamiliar with the tween sect Selena plays alex on the wizards of waverly place. When I announced my award my daughter was excited , not for me, but because I am in the same league as Alex , wizard of the year mommy peep of the year. I have struck pre tween gold. Hard to do. Too bad Brendt isn't my justin Beiber. He certainly cannot shake his groove thing anymore seeing he had not hit the cybex machine in at least a decade. (defibrillator please) On the other hand, brendt was really pissed because he thought he had peep of the year in the bag given how many bribes ( I mean automatics) he had donated. Not to worry Brendt I couldn't have done it with out you. You are the man behind the woman. You have put up with my shenanigans for years. I promise you This summer i will let you catch more fish than me.
~
This peep of the year is looking forward to early feb when Fresh Ayer runs out and grape fruit season commences. I am sure the foot traffic from the Sundance house to The Razor ( first husbands mancave) will have as much foot traffic as an illegal alien smuggling route from Mexico to The USA . The Razor is always open for an ice cold beverage with good friends. Looking forard to it!
~
Once the Whale Eye hits the water and that mountain of a man Jay pulls his lobster traps in a strapping and patrick swayze roadhouse type fashion I think we should initiate an annual peep of the year lobster bake at the sundance house. I am sure Ryan will add to the feast when he reels in a monster Tuna Aboard The Flying Elvis. First husband is an excellent Captain ;)
~
I will provide grade A meat ( sorry ladies brendt is off the market) and provide the automatic. Jay whip up those white trash balls and Tommy Ooooo whip up that Chowda!
~
Looking forward this roller coaster of a ride.
~
On a more serious note, i am Pondering my clothing line...suggestions accepted.

White House Tenants
I have some good friends who are offended by the policies of George Bush.
~
But regardless of your politics, the Bush's are nice people and never exhibited the crassness of the Clinton's and the Obama's. I know accounts of Secret Service people who served the various administrations who say that the Bush's were the most genuine and caring of all the White House tenants that they served.
~
Apparently, Barack wanted to go to Camp David, but Michelle nixed that plan.

Back to Normal
We're heading out to FreshAyer this morning for maybe the last time with the Grandkids. The countdown is down to a little over two weeks.
~
For those of you who have been keeping tabs on the days left, I'm sure you feel as we do that it is almost surreal that this ordeal is coming to an end. At the beginning, when we were staring at over 700 days each time, it seemed like these days would never be here.
~
As Will Crawford eloquently said the other day, "There's been a void in our lives, and now everything can get back to normal."
~
That pretty much sums it up.
___________________________________________________________
The Waterman among others is asking about any ceremonies or festivities that are contemplated. None yet.... until all the details of the release are available, but he and the rest of the loyal peeps will be suitably informed and involved.

Straw Poll
~
Taking a straw poll on who is going to win?
POTW Week 2 - 2012
I've told you Peeps that this year seems to be shaping up pretty well. What with Nanepashemet Telecom winning all of that business and FreshAyer drawing close and all. So it comes as no surprize that an Automatic Peep of the Week selection comes up so soon in this magical year.
When Harvey and Lisa Rowe showed up with the lovely Maria Rowen last night they showed the ultimate coolness by sporting their Tuna Lips Skull Caps.
~
Then it was tenderly revealed to the Mountain of a Man that Maria had brought the King of Scotch, Lagavulin 16 Year Single Malt to grace the evening.
ANNOUNCING....
Nanepashemet Peeps of the Year for the 2nd Week of 2012
Maria Rowen, Automatic Lagavulin Rule
Tommy O 'Shea
Sue Sue Raiche
Will Nestor
Doug Maxfield
Lou Panakio
Joanne, Maria and Lisa professed their gratitude for the Tuna Lips hats in the traditional manner.
