I just love this press conference.

IF ONLY I'D KNOWN

I attended Washington State university for three years. Twice a day a would walk up to campus hoping an attractive college girl would come up to me and start a conversation. It never ever ever never ever happened!

On October 11th, fourteen years after I left college Dawn and I visited Moscow Idaho. I decided to take Buddy and Zorro on a walk across the University of Idaho campus. During our 45 minute walk I had seven different occasions where I was stopped by girls who wanted to pet the dogs.

Time to spring into action

Two weeks ago I wondered into the computer with the intention of spending a quick minute or two on the computer. My quick minute turned into a quick hour. When I got up from the computer I creaked. Then I started getting ready for bed. I stood on the bathroom scale and weighed 195lb. That was it .....it was time for a change.

First I got Dawn and myself memberships at the YMCA. While their after we singed up I confirmed my old karate class was still meeting on Tuesday and Thursday nights.

Then I went around the corner from our house to the local mixed martial arts gym and signed up.

So now I've scheduled myself for two nights a week of karate and to nights a week of jujitsu or some mixture of those classes four nights a week.

How will it go?

Will my thirty seven year old body hold up?

Ahh.... I guess will find out.

Today Dawn, Buddy, Zorro, and I attended the grand opening of the beautiful new Dog park at Fort Walla Walla.

Here is a nice video of the Sensei who awarded me a black belt back in 2003.
