The new Seiko came in yesterday. I tried to adjust the band myself, but it uses friction pins instead of spring pins. After losing the friction sleeves and spending an hour finding them in the carpet, I ran to a local watch shop this morning and had the experts adjust it for me.

Growing up, there was always a rumor of a haunted house that was so scary, if you made it all the way through, they paid you $100.

Of course, no one who talked about it had ever been there, and could never tell you where it was located. It was always their older brother or cousin who went there and said how scary it was.

It's not a great movie. What does that say?

The Penguin series it spawned was much more enjoyable.

Buy two of these with lids, and fill with water.

Crazy that the first movie came out 25 years ago, and they are still cranking out media from the Fast and Furious universe.

Ok. I ordered it. If it doesn't work, you owe me a mortgage payment.

My kid's first LSU game was McNeese in 2015.

I told her one day she can tell her grandchildren she was there the only time it ever rained in Tiger Stadium.

Starting Strength is great for novice lifters. But Rippetoe is very rigid and dogmatic in his approach to weightlifting.

I did SS for a while. Once the weekly weight increases started slowing down, I switched to a custom program Johnny Pain made for me.

My lifts skyrocketed. My goal was to squat over 405lb, and I met that goal in less than a year. I was doing 410 3x3 with a backoff set of 320lbs at ten reps.

Now I'm doing 531. It has a built in deload week, which I feel like I need since I'm not as young as I used to be.

For your case, you could do something like the Greyskull LP with a bodybuilding split, or 531 using bodybuilding movements as accessory work. I'd stay away from SS if one of your main goals is aesthetics.

I have a couple of their songs on my various playlists. Namely Possum Kingdom and Tyler.
