Well, as I've tried to restart things again, I wandered over to Clemson today to weigh in and see, exactly, how much weight I've put back on in about six months of fooling around.
The training room was closed. So, I will try again likely on Monday.
Fighting the jitters and urges that come with re-launching this thing (again). But if I can push through it, I'll be okay. Things have calmed down as far as travel and the like, so the atmosphere is right to get back in the groove.
Also, as usually happens with me, I woke up the other morning with the unmistakable feeling that it's time. And that's been the case anytime I've had success in this arena. No forcing motivation. No pep talks. Nothing along those lines.
Just a feeling that the time is right to go. So, I'm going.
And again, I'm taking you all with me.

Maybe that's why Clemson underachieves every year in football. They close the weight room to their most loyal fans. good blog

Here is one of my articles
I know that many people love tradition and nostalgia. Many people frown upon change and want things to stay the same no matter what. But in some cases, change is good, and it makes sense. No, I'm not referring to the type of change President Obama is referring to. I'm referring to a name change.
The Big 10 Conference has always been known as just that; the Big 10. For most of its existence, it consisted of ten universities in the Midwest rich in athletic tradition: Ohio St., Michigan, Michigan St., Purdue, Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Northwestern and Indiana. In the Mid 90s, however, Penn St. joined the conference, giving it 11 schools. The conference still calls itself the Big 10. That does not make sense. Either call it the Big 11, which sounds silly, or do what I think they should do. Change the name to the Big North Conference.
We already have the Big East, the Big West, and the Big South Conferences. Why not have the Big North. All of the current Big 10 universities are in the North. It just seems logical to call the conference the Big North Conference. By keeping the name "Big 10" , tradition is hindering progress. Just because the name is changed doesn't mean that all of the mystique, tradition and excellence of the Big 10 goes away. It's all still there, along with the 11 universities that contribute to its greatness. I say rename the Big 10 the Big North Conference. That's my opinion. I'd like to hear yours.
