"I look like a turkey with leukemia"

This was an interesting article. http://www.interviewmagazine.com/film/shia-labeouf
I never really considered him as a serious actor until "Lawless", which was phenomenal.

I love it!
Cooking for hours...so that the house smells so good that you start drooling the instant you walk into the driveway... going camping in the desert with Benos, lilgary, BigJoni, and friends and mutts...gravy... stuffing... mashed potatoes... PIE... ALL OF IT!
I'm so excited!

I would bet $100 that someone at my next major match says, "Well, yeah, but Rob Leatham thinks about what's for lunch before he shoots, so that's what I'm doing these days, too."
We sometimes clutter our minds at critical points of a performance with conscious input which is not conducive to retaining the high level focus needed to execute. Most of this is pre-programmed before the buzzer goes off. Sometimes at the match, sometimes at the practice range.
This is applicable to everything. The struggle (my enormous struggle, anyway) is to clear the mind of the 'conscious input' when you're doing anything; which is to say to not think of anything while you're doing everything. Listening to the sound of each object as you set it down on a surface...

Lying in bed after a long day/tough workout and feeling how soft the sheets are as your spine spreads out and the pressure is off of your feet, knowing that you put up a good fight!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRIAN!! I'm so glad you were born!

Eat here, too!!

I can't stop thinking about it. I'm looking forward to watching them over again. I also CAN'T WAIT to see who they get for the next season, although I agree with BE that I'm sad to see Harrelson and McConaughey go.

This is an amazing video explaining the 'soft-wire' genetics of empathy in human beings. So brilliant!
-
The most important thing is staying in this second, without a thought of past or future, and letting everything go over and over again. (Maybe that's two things? One in the same?)
-
I liked it but I thought it was scary. Definitely not something I can watch before bed (I'm a chicken!). I'll DVR it and watch it in the comfortable safety of a Saturday afternoon laundry-folding session!
-
Great sadness.. the one thread on the forum that BE has absolutely nothing to add

What is the difference between Bison and Beef ?
Before any of you start I know buffalo and cows
Bison is a lot leaner and generally has a lower caloric content but higher protein and iron. The ribeyes are fantastic because the higher fat content, which you don't get in other bison products, contributes to an unbelievable, almost buttery flavor. Ground bison burgers have a similar creaminess to the taste. I'm pretty much a filet mignon person when it comes to beef because I don't care for the chewiness that fat provides, despite the fact the the 'flavor comes from fat.' Bison ribeyes are as good, if not better when BE grills them, than filet mignon. Also, bison almost never come from feedlots like cows often do so they are messed with a lot less than cows, in terms of antibiotics, hormones, etc.

Don't try.

This video is an amazing testament to the ingenuity, creativity, and endurance of human beings.

I love this and I show it to my students as a prewriting activity for their Personal Statements. (They're seniors in high school.)
My favorite parts are seeing life as a three-year-old, the fact that you will be dead in a 100 years, and when he has his parents stand up so he can thank them.
It's less than 20 minutes long and definitely worth the watch!

Happy Birthday! <3

I liked Tom Brady high-fiving a guy and exclaiming, "I'm white!" and the coach signaling "Pretty lady parts." Crack me up!

The Marriage Plot by Jefferey Eugenides (I've been on a kick with him recently)
The Best American Poetry 2012 ed. Mark Doty and David Lehman
and
Practical Shooting: Beyond Fundamentals
(slower this time though) -
I definitely didn't think I was ever going to stop laughing after the fight scene. One of the best ever!
In related news, there are two apps available for the iPhone for the movie: one is the Ted Soundboard app, featuring sounds from the movie, the other and IMO better, is an app that allows you to insert images of Ted in various poses into pictures that you take/have on your phone. Hilarious!

Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. I cliff-noted it in high school and am actually enjoying it now that I don't have to read it!

This Saturday, we didn't have any plans and the night just kept unfolding, bluegrass band at a local bar (that ended up being a BAD*** band), back to a friend's house with a good friend who's moving back to Kansas soon to take over the family farm, to The Porch, to a backyard bonfire birthday party, and then bicycling home with my Virgil and best friends just as the dawn began to break. It was so beautiful...
Llamas!

It's impossible to have seen this sketch and not yell LLAMAS any time you visit a zoo or see them on television, billboards, etc.
