Tweet of the Day--John Fugelsang

Um, Barnes & Noble? If you look at the facts you'll see that Sarah Palin's book is a bit more than just '40% Off.'. -- @JohnFugelsang

Finally at the Beach

We arrived in Florida on Sunday, but today, our last full day in
Florida, is the first day nice enough to go to the beach. It has been
chilly and downright cold--below freezing cold, but it is in the 70s
today. Lots of people at the beach today too. Haven't seen anyone
swimming. Water temperture is just above ice.

Most people are shelling. You'd think these shells were filled with
gold the way people are searching. You can buy a big bag of nice
shells for $3. I guess it's not the same. There are lots of shells
here. Shane and I are not shelling. Just relaxing before our big
drive back, which we don't want to think about.

New Year's Resolutions for 2011

Even though I am not that good at achieving my resolutions (see yesterday's post), I still make them.  Here's my goals for 2011.  Along with the usual of eating better, exercising more, and reading a million books, here are my main goals for 2011.

1.  Run a marathon in less than 4 hours.  One of my goals in life is to qualify for the Boston Marathon.  The fastest I've ever completed a marathon is just over 4 hours and 20 minutes.  At my age, in order to qualify for Boston I would have to run a marathon in 3 hours and 35 minutes.  I know that is not possible at the moment, but my goal for the year is to run a marathon in less than 4 hours.  Baby steps.

2.  Post a post on my website everyday.  Everyday.

3.  Get my Qrank on with the 365 day award and to score over 10,000.  Yes, I know what is important. @Qrank.

There are just the three this year.  Keep your fingers crossed.
