Can't wait to watch the Buckeyes in the Final Four this weekend. It's been a few years since their loss to Florida in the National Championship game and I'm really hoping that they can pull it off this year.
It will be a tough test as they have to go through a Kansas team that has already beaten them once and a Kentucky team that looks unbeatable.
Stranger things have happened though and I can't wait to watch.

Traditions
In the book I'm reading, one of the ways the secret service agents designate themselves is by personalized lapel pins. Is this for real or just a fictional thing?
It is interesting how the different military branches and agencies have their traditions. They are very much like fraternities in that way. There are rivalries and competition to be the best.
I never had much interest in being a military guy but I often wondered if I had grown up in that type of environment what branch I might have favored. I still have no idea but it's an interesting thing to think about.

Mixing it up
I think I may have finally found the formula figured out. I've always focused my workouts on one thing at a time. Running, lifting or high tempo calisthenics. This always lead to burnout and/or injury, but I was trying to stay focused on one goal at a time.
So now I'm trying to do all three at once. I usually do three workouts a week so my plan is to hit each area one time. So far so good, and I'm feeling pretty good. Injury bug has stayed away and I get most of my workouts in because I rarely feel like doing none of the three. There is always one that appeals to me on any particular day.
I work out here at work generally but for you Virginia folks a richmond fitness center will work just fine. Get out there and get to work!

Coffee
I've never been a coffee guy. Anytime I've tried it, the taste has totally turned me off. The odd thing is that I think that gourmet coffees smell really good. I love the smell of a coffee shop.
Generally smell and taste go hand in hand but not in this case apparently. My mother in law is a huge coffee drinker and we often joke about it. We often look for deal on coffee for her. So far not cheap krups coffee makers but mostly the actual ground beans.
We even keep a coffee maker for her at our house that never comes out of the closet when she isn't there. Even my sister takes advantage of that when she is in town.

Cool Memory
One of my only memories of my Great Grandpa was when we visited him and he gave me and my sister a silver dollar. I don't remember much about the encounter but for some reason it sticks in my mind. I still have the dollar too.
So I guess if you are trying to impress some kids with a gift then buy morgan silver dollars and give them each one. Hey, it worked in my case, but then again who knows exactly why some memories stick and others don't.
Either way silver dollars are pretty cool. Not something you see everyday.
Just a thought.

Who to call?
I am in a great position as far as I'm concerned. I have yet to need the services of a lawyer in any direct way. I hope that trend continues. If I did ever need one, I would have no idea who to call.
I would probably search google and see what happened. If I lived in NC then using the search business lawyers raleigh nc. Or I could just put out an APB on Facebook and see what folks recommend.
These types of things always work best with a preexisting relationship. Similar to having a mechanic you can trust. Not always easy to find but worth holding on to when you do.
