Re: The couch thread

In the meantime, I'm still retired. They're thinking about me, but I'm not thinking about them. Feels good. May I, as THE OP, state that this is the worst thing that has ever happened to CF. Wait, which: that I retired, or that I started in the first place? That you retired! The only CF related sit...

Re: The Return of Ab_God

how are you training these days? Sorry to pollute a thread about drinking-holes and gambling with training shite. Body weight. Pushups and pullups on yes, the Perfect Pushup and Perfect Pullup rotating thingies which seem to really help my shoulders stay cool, and pistols. Lots of GTG in between en...

Drinks were $22 each, and are not Paleo. Went Paleo again 4 weeks ago and I'm down 6lbs, about 7 to go to get to 182 which is my early 90s jujitsu weight. The Vegas picture is indeed very flat.

Great book. Writer embedded with the Cambridge crew as they train 7 months for the 159th yearly 4+ mile race with Oxford. 2 olympians, a world champion and various national team members, mostly grad students at Cambridge, make up the team. Very much like Brad Lewis' Assault on Lake Casitas, a must r...

The Bricklayer - Noah Boyd

Really good. Character is sort of a Gabriel Alon/Jack Reacher mix. Ex FBI agent fired because he won't rat someone out working as a bricklayer and sculptor. Breaks up a bank robbery and leaves, but FBI recognizes him on the tape and asks him to come back to solve a bad case. Much mayhem and sexual t...

Re: The Assassin trilogy by Robert Ferrigno

What if the US split? Half Christian, half Muslim. Ferrigno's books are set in this unfamiliar geopolitical configuration. The protagonist is Rakkim Epps, a Fedayeen shadow warrior of the islamic half who's not a good muslim. Tight writing, memorable characters, good action, overall very enjoyable....

Can't believe I slept on this. We finally watched last Saturday's SNL and they were on. I knew Josh Homme (Queens of the Stonage et al) and Grohl was drumming (Foo Fighters) but I didn't know who that cool older bass player was - fucking John Paul Jones!

First single from the new Hendrix album that comes out next month is up on itunes today. Amazing. Unlike most musicians at the time, Hendrix owned his studio, Electric Ladyland, and lived right down the street in the Village. Since he didn't pay for studio time he spent hours, sometimes days in ther...
