Dubya you're full of caca
Distance Run: 4 Miles
Other Exercise: None
Ok so the other night I said that my leg really hurt and most people are probably wondering what the hell I am doing running on it (did 4 miles last night too). You see I'm one of those people who likes to kick pain's ass rather than letting pain kick my ass. Here's an example....When I was in college, I tripped and fell down some stairs as I was coming out of a building in a rush to catch a bus. I ended up with a moderately sprained ankle. Rather than taking it lying down, I went skating for 4 hours later that evening. Yah yah yah so it probably wasn't the smartest thing to do from a medical stand point, however, in some weird way it turned out to be therapeutic because my ankle, although still tender, felt better afterward. Well, when it came to the recent leg issue, I decided the hell if I was going to let it keep me from something I really enjoy so off I went on a run. I'll admit the first half mile was sorta gimpish but once I found my rhythm, nothing was going to stop me. Like the skating after the stair incident, my leg actually felt better after my run. Makes me think that I did just sleep funny and need a good "stretch" to cure it.
Now switching gears to address the issue which inspired the title to this post. I watched the poor excuse for a Prez we have babble tonight. It certainly reminded me of why I try to avoid any speeches that the guy gives. I swear the guy acted like a really shitty salesman who was under the gun and starting to panic.
More than anything his whole social security idea just really irks me to the Nth degree and don't even get me started on the energy bill. If you ask me, what they need to do with social security is have everyone pay in but put a stipulation on it that those with upper level incomes who really would not benefit from drawing SS must forfeit theirs. In return, those who have to give theirs up could be given some sort of tax credit once they are at the age that they would start collecting their SS.
Alrighty, I'm off. It's getting late and I want to see Red Dwarf before I go to bed.
Til next time....
