How I ate ice cream, pizza, burger, fries, chips, pretzels, cookies, a McFlurry and a box of Life cereal and still lost 5 lbs this week.

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Yes it’s true. 

I ate all that crap. I cheated big time. And I’ll do it again.

Actually that’s pretty close…

All that junk food found its way down my pie hole and yet somehow I still lost 5 lbs this week.

How? Easy.  It’s all in the timing.

I have a single cheat day: Saturday.  I  eat whatever I want, however much I want.  When Sunday rolls around I am done with the binge buffet (kidding) and I’m back on the plan. It is really that simple.

The Sincerest form of Flattery?

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

Whenever there is something very cool in this world someone will try to knock it off.   The shelves of electronic stores are filled with iPod clones.

Here is another example:

The Hydrox-thumb

Looks like an Oreo right? 

Well it ain’t.  It’s a Hydrox – close but no cigar.

Oh yeah, the real deal.  Got milk?

So what do you think the fine folks at Oreo thought when the strikingly similar Hydrox came out?   According to the old adage they should be flattered right?  Thrilled even.

F that.  You know they were pissed.

The Kirstie Alley Effect

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

I’m sure you all remember Kirstie Alley as super stoic and sexy Vulcan, Lt. Saavik from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn.  Although I hear she also had some success on some little TV show about a bar where everyone knows your name…

saavik
Live long, and prosper.

Well wherever you remember her from, you probably know the story by now:  She got fat.

Twice.

I know as well as anyone that bodyweight can fluctuate throughout the year.  Life gets in the way and s^*t just happens.  My weight goes up and down and I do this crap for a living.  No one is perfect.

Happy Mother’s Day

Friday, May 8th, 2009

Happy Mother’s Day.

To the mothers of sons and to the mothers of daughters. To the mothers of canines, felines, equines and all kinds – this day is for you as well. And let us not forget the mothers to be for your mothering has already begun.

A special thank you for all that you do – and yes we notice even if we don’t say. And though we can never say it enough – from your children everywhere to you, mom – we love you.

I of course have two special mothers to thank. The first is my mother, Linda.

Goodbye Dom DeLuise -RIP

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

On May 4th, 2009 funny man Dom DeLuise passed away. 

My thoughts go out to his family and friends.  While I did not know him personally, I did have the privilege of meeting him in the summer of 1983, when I was 12 years old.

Josh & Dom – Who Looks Funnier?

My grandparents were taking me on a trip to New York, Washington DC and then to Arizona where they were filming Cannonball Run II. (My grandfather was buddies with Sammy Davis Jr. who was also in the movie, but that is another story)
