gym guy

 

You have boundaries; naked gym guy needs boundaries. 
Who sets the boundaries?
Two normal people join a gym: one of them works out and goes home, the other works out and showers at the gym.
Then it breaks down further.
Two people shower at the gym: sweaty guys and those who like to shower with sweaty guys.
It’s all in the same package, (excuse the pun.)
A current trend explains why so many people, like millennials, are uncomfortable in the gym locker room.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK? COME ON NEW YORK

New York

 

 

Doing the right thing in New York is the same as doing the right thing in Oregon:

MUSICAL URGE SUGGESTIONS: A LESSON POST

Acting on a musical urge is always chancy.
Will you sound the way you think you sound, would like to sound?
There’s only one way to find out, and there’s a guitar laying around. Maybe it’s enough to stop thinking about it and get back to the more important things like video games and TV.

Don’t do that. Why?

SECOND OPINION: WILL THAT BE ONE CHEMO OR TWO

From cancer.org: Cancer cells tend to grow fast, and chemo drugs kill fast-growing cells. But because these drugs travel throughout the body, they can affect normal, healthy cells that are fast-growing, too. Damage to healthy cells causes side effects.

CANCER RESEARCH THROUGH BETTER BEER

    “I’m buying you a beer,” G said.   “That’s awfully nice, but you don’t have to,” I said.   “It’s that one,” he said.   “Which one?” I asked.   “At the bottom of the Daily Specials.”   I looked at the beer menu and didn’t see it.   “Where are the specials?” […]

BoomerPdx And End Of Life Debate

Oregon wins the trifecta for end-of-life discussion. 1. Oregon Senate Bill 451 establishes the nation’s first state registry of people’s wishes for end-of-life care. 2. U.S. Rep. Earl Blumenauer’s H.R. 1898 allows funds for doctors discussing end-of-life choices with their patients. 3. The state has allowed physician-assisted suicide/death with dignity as a final option.

AUTHOR PHOTOS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS? Pt.1

    Do Not Make Direct Eye Contact?   This man looks like he might be blind, which explains the eye contact part. The other part is what an author looks like from different time periods. There’s little difference in the region under a beard from any period.   If Mt. Rushmore for writers needs […]

SEARCHING FOR MEANING. IT MEANS SOMETHING?

  What is more important than Searching For Meaning. How many times have you heard, “It probably doesn’t mean as much to you as it does me?” If you care about dogs, you see the top image and feel for Fido. The couple with the dog have enough feelings for each other, just not their […]

King Arthur, The Baby Boomer’s Friend In Need

If reading tales of kings and queens encourage a child’s imagination, dragging them up the treacherous goat trails of Tintagel Castle makes it real. Who does that? Baby Boomers seeking greater cultural meaning. King Arthur is a good one to focus on. You know the story well enough to sound like an authority. Sword in the […]

Get Your Medical History In Another Language

In The Hospital And You Don’t Speak The Language. Now What? Do you like new places, the sort where you step off a plane and think, “It looks normal enough,” but you know it’s not? You know because you showed up after language immersion and Rosetta Stone, and you still don’t understand what anyone says. […]
