Funny you say that. It had that soft, warm glow that candles do. But no flickering. And we don't use candles.

Spooky stories! So, kind of funny. Last night I flipped on just that light and went to bed. To see if it would pop off - you know - from an electrical issue. Here's the jacked up thing: What was on a couple nights ago WAS NOT that light. No, that light is about three times brighter. What I saw the other night was more…

We're in a relatively crime free area (knock on wood) and I keep things locked 24 hours a day. That said, nothing was missing. I put the skull there just to be silly. :) It's a little ceramic glow in the dark skull I got at Disney land like... 25 years ago. I'm always one for a rational explanation to everything. However,…

I was thinking sleep paralysis as I read through your story. I am not the most lucid person when I first wake up. Which is one reason I keep the flowers and the bouquet separated. I have had experiences before where dream sort of crossed over into waking up, but it only lasts a split second.* I watched the bathroom for a…

He is a border collie, so I wouldn't put it past him.

So... you're sayin a ghost sabotaged my light switch?

I feel an exorcism coming on...

I don't see it.

Here's a picture of the bathroom. We all know that paranormal activity shows up on cameras as blobs, or streaks, or other things that can't be explained by science. Behold, ghost-free bathroom:

Built in 2001. It's a bit of a pain to get semi-automatic and hand-held flowers. But 12 gauge bouquets aren't restricted much.

Nope. nothing like it has happened before. I've reassembled my bouquet of daisies, just in case. ;)

It does smell like something died in there. Fairly often. Yep! That's probably the best bet, since I don't know if it's a boy ghost or a gril ghost, and I don't want participate in ectosexism.

Hmmm. I only cook in cast iron. And I get 5000+mg of sodium a day, so I'm like, a one-man anti-ghost machine.

Next time I'll go for a vacuum cleaner.

Probably 500 during intense (for me) activity. But I only weigh 250 lbs and I'm not an elite athlete capable of top intensity for a solid hour.

They should be able to... And then face the financial consequences.

I am conflicted though. If a couple went to a restaurant and were refused service because of same sex, I'd be pretty upset about that.

For the record, I'm strongly on the side of LBGT rights. However, this is a little silly.

Cage and barbells from Rogue. Bought reasonable quality plates used. Don't get a cheap barbell.

Any animal should be bound 100% of the time. Front yard? Leash. Cat? Leash. Dog? Leash. Lizard? Leash? Toddler? Leash. Snake? Leash.

Buy an ab wheel instead. Little device, like a 8" wheel with a stick through it.

Quest isn't dairy free. Your other option is bars with soy (garbage) or make your own beef jerky.

100 calories a mile on a bicycle... maybe if you're a track cyclist doing 30+ mph.

a deadlift is just a double-leg-behind-bar jefferson squat.

are those a bunch of 10lb bumpers?

i hope the dog owners chipped in on your medical!

Not too much... just pointless at this point to do a bunch of isolation work. The compounds I mention are the core of every serious strength program for a reason. =)

Do you want to get bigger? Yes - bulk. No - don't bulk.

Yes, but a little slower. Day 1: Squats Bench Press Chin Ups Day 2 Deadlifts Overhead Press Dips Whatever you feel like doing for abs both days. Or you know, do a program like Starting Strength, or All-Pro, or New Rules. Keep in mind, until you get used to the work, linear progression is going to interfere with your…
