News flash! Blogging doesn't pay well. Of course it could be worse. Here's what I've made so far today. (Thank you all for your support!)

Procrastination got the best of me and I missed last week's post. At least I stayed on top of my workouts.

Weight
168lbs/76kg.

Forbes lists Salt Lake City as one of the top ten cities for condom sales per capita in the nation. I am so confused. We also lead the nation in child birth. A word of advice Utah—you're not supposed to wear it on your finger.

Oh sure, he won't flood the the earth again, but he'll sure as hell knock down yer trailer.

More cool tornado pics here.

Sorry this post is late. I'm on my way to slow but sure recovery this week. Unfortunately, so was my weight. Just in case you're curious, I only track calories when I run on the treadmill. Once I'm outside all the time, I'll probably pull that column down.

Weight
171lbs/77kg.

I've wondered for a while now if Utah's shallow gene pool wasn't partly to blame for its high rate of depression and suicide. Some mental illnesses, such as bipolar, seem to run in families. And before any of you get defensive and call me a bigot, my family has been breeding within the confines of Mormonism for as long as the religion has existed. I'm as much a product of Utah's near-miss inbreeding as anyone. 

Genetic or not, I don't think this lets the church of the hook. After all, Mormon doctrine is clear that the faithful should only marry and procreate with active, tithe-paying, temple-going members if they want to be with their families in the afterlife. That sure doesn't leave a big group to choose from.

The cold officially kicked my ass this week.  I should be back on schedule by the next post though.

I've heard the line "I was lost but now am found (dammit)," but this is a little over the top: Missing Orleans County Pastor Found in Ohio Strip Club. Wait until I tell him about the beer volcano. Then his conversion will be complete!

On a related note, Ron Jeremy is debating Michael Leahy tonight in Salt Lake. I wish I could make it.

Looking over the site logs, it looks like several of you have been searching for the podcast. Of course to be fair, lots of you are searching for terms like "porn", "nude" and "slavery". Your a sick bunch (and that's why we love you).

Anyhow, Heidi and I haven't recorded in a long time, but here are the episodes we have to date. If we do record any more, I'll post them in this category so they're easy to find.

First of all, happy birthday Heidi!  Also, congratulations are in order because she weighed in five pounds lighter this week. Courtesy and a healthy sense of self preservation prevent me from ever posting her actual weight here. At any rate, great work!

Let me just say that I don't know where the hell this week has gone. Every time I put up a new BFF post, it shocks me that it's time already. That being said, I'd like to see some of the rest of you join in. You'd be twelve weeks in already if you'd started at the beginning!

Now then, on with the stats. You'll notice that I only ran three days this week. Today would have made it four. Unfortunately, I'm afraid I'm coming down with Heidi's cold--a cold which the doctor today diagnosed as a viral bronchitis. I tried running with a cold once. I'll never do it again.

Weight
170lbs/77kg. You know, it occurs to me that I'd be a lot happier with this if I just stuck with metric.
