Keep Muscle, Lose Fat,

Keep Better Health, Lose a Lesser Life

June 25, 2008

Upon playing "Smarter Than Staci" today on KS95 with hosts Moon and Staci, I learned that I am actually not smarter than Staci.  Instead of winning tickets for a musical adaption of "Little House on the Prairie" I had to settle for a consolation prize...visiting my friend at his little house in Eden Prairie.

My girlfriend, pictured below (running through the tall grass just like Carrie during the opening credits of "Little House"), runs with jubilee upon hearing that I am on the show to play "Smarter Than Staci".  A mighty "Little House" fan, she runs with anticipation toward me, assuming I will win tickets for the musical extravaganza.

Unfortunately for me, I didn't know where the first transcontinental railroad was connected (Utah), nor could I recall the term used for lines in a poem (stanza).  As  punishment for missing out on the "Little House" tickets, my girlfriend had me read stanzas of poetry while walking on train tracks to Utah.  

"My neurons nay are quick and smart

And "Prairie" tickets did therefore depart

To trace the tracks of history and prose

Is my consolation for a weekend show."

Meanwhile, a saddened "Little House" fan will settle for re-runs unless I can hurry back from Utah to score some tickets to the show.

You can't win 'em all.  Thanks, Moon and Staci, for letting me at least play the game.

Yours in the gym,

I started working with Adam two months and 46 pounds ago. Adam is simply AMAZING! My wife and two teenage boys are working with him now as well. It was nice to have the trainer come to my house and work with me one on one.
