A few things I've been meaning to post:

1. I hate the business model of gyms. I actually enjoy going the gym and getting a good workout, provided it's the type of workout I want to do. Right now, I'm going through a swimming phase, as it's easy on the joints and has it's own built in cooling while getting the heart rate up. The rat bastards at the gym have decided that they don't need to expand the facilities, just add new members. So, I'm now forced to go to the gym around 10 p.m. just so I can have a 50/50 shot and having a swimming lane open. I realize that some of this may be related to New Year's resolutions, but the point is that the gyms just oversell their memberships to a point where it's not really worth having a membership anymore.

2. This is a blog from a woman who claims to be a London call girl. Even if it isn't true, it's very interesting reading. Be warned, she isn't afraid of discussing pretty much anything.

3. My sister sent this to me last month. Just listened to it again. Hilarious!

Ironically, the gym I workout at seems to be almost empty, although I'm sure they would sell every membership they could. It must be the bad economy. Clearly, though, any new sale of a membership in a gym that is already built must be about 80% proft!
