    Maybe it's just me, but am I the only one that has never heard of a tax law competition? In no scenario that I can think of does that sound even slightly entertaining, but to each his own I suppose.

    I have a legitimate motorcycle question, although I realize it may make me sound like a ditz. You know those motorcycles with the real high handle bars? If a rider is going on a long ride, won't his arms get tired? Maybe start to fall asleep? Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with my arm over my head and it's dead weight. Some of those handle bars are really high up and it just looks like an uncomfortable way to ride.

    We are going to our weird couple friend's house tonight for a party. Should be interesting. Or maybe not. It depends if someone takes a crap in his toilet because then he will go on for about an hour about he has to fumigate it before he can use it again. True story.

    A statue in the lobby of my girlfriend's posh downtown apartment building. I call it "the gspot". The lady at the reception desk was unimpressed when I shouted that through the lobby.

    I had never heard of it until a few weeks ago. It's honestly a giant pain in the ass. It really wouldn't be so bad but the fucking asshat tax professor I have as my faculty advisor makes this shit way worse than it needs to be. The only reason I am doing this is so that I can put another activity on the resume. Nothing more. But this fuck acts like this is the end all be all of my fucking existence. One month and it's over.

    Not a street bike rider though I know a few. Most times when driving at speed your velocity will keep you up right and you can take your hands off the bars to rest them. Not the safest practice but ehh. I am watching the last two seasons of The Walking Dead to catch up on Netflix. I am getting a powerful urge to get a cruiser like the one Daryl rides. I'd be more of a super bike rider myself if I got into it.

    PS, I hate that fucking kids in the show, the main characters son. Fucking kid actors.

    Being a lawyer looks way sexier on television than it sounds in real life. No thanks. Sounds fucking miserable.

    I've had Harley's(or some variation of) that have had both drag bars, mini apes and full blown ape hangers. Believe it or not the ape hangers are actually more comfortable to ride than the drag bars. The next bike I build(after my girls are a little older) will have mini apes on it. They really are more comfortable for longer rides.

    Fuck that.


    I've got to find a job when we relocate, and that's cool and all, but I can't deal with cubes and lights and...no. We'll see how it all goes.

    Yeah - but CrossFit affiliates are pretty unique in that they don't have a high turnover rate (because they're small operations) and if they do have any turnover, they hire from very close. Generally a new affiliate is spawned because an athlete branched out and decided to do their own thing once they had some coaching under their belt.

    And, honestly, I need a break. I gave a LOT of myself to this gym in the past four years. It'll be four an half when I go. I've given pieces of my soul, time away from my kids, and parts of my body to this business, and I need time to recover. The past two weeks have shown me that people I thought were my friends have been planning for the better part of a YEAR to not just fuck me over, but FUCK ME OVER.

    Even if it's only a month or two, I need to have a 'fuck you' job. Something mindless and stupid I can do then look at someone one day and say "Eh. I don't need this shit" and walk out the door. I don't want to be in charge, for awhile.

    Well, I'd say if you were moving to Florida, you could work here as a waitress...season is coming. Personally I couldn't think of a better "Eh. I don't need this shit" job if there ever was one. I just haven't figure out yet how to get out myself.

    From what I understand about law school, if you want to land a nice paying job is you need to go to a top 10 or 20 law school. And then from there, be the top of your class. Congrats! Now you get to work 80-90 hours/week but make a cool 150-200k a year. Everyone else in that top law school has a good chance of getting a job somewhere. But it probably won't pay like the good top firm gigs.

    Now take the rest of the law students out there going to tiers 2-4 law schools. Have fun getting that high paying job or any law job at all for that matter but having the same debt as everyone else.

    I did a year of law school at a shitty one and left pretty quick. My debt could be a lot higher than it currently is.

    Depends on the affiliate.
    Every affiliate has different coaching standards and different programming. That's a good and a bad thing.
    I can say that I, and any of the affiliates who have ever come from my gym, have never injured anyone.

    Now, if you want to call a "Hey I'm going to take a week off, my knee is just sore" situation an injury, I'd argue that. I'd say that people overwork and then with rest/recovery they're good to go.

    The things that CrossFit is known for - SLAP tears, rotator cuff tears, ACL/MCL/PCL tears, etc. have never happened in my gym. My SLAP tear was a result of something else years ago, but not because of my gym.
    I prevent all of those things, as best as possible, by not programming stupid movements - sumodeadlift highpulls for example. The strain on the shoulders is unnecessary. Kipping pull-ups - I get the conditioning aspect, and I respect it - but if you can't do at least ONE deadhang no kip pullup, we work on shoulder strength and stability for AGES before we start talking about kips. Otherwise, it's asking for injury.


    I, as a coach, respect that the people who come to my gym have real life day jobs. And they can't perform their job if I kick them in the dick every night so hard they can't move the next day. That's stupid training, stupid coaching, and stupid programming.

    Yeah get a bar tending job. Fun, decent money, you basically entertain for drunks.


    I am also weary about the incidence of injury in cross fit. I'd love to do it as my work out routine severely lacks anything to do with cardio strength and my diet is far from ideal. But fucking up my back is not something I'd ever want to risk.

    I'd have to do it during the day - The Husband would probably like it if I were home at night.



    If your'e interested, look at the affiliate's website. Look at their programming. Or send me the link to one you're looking at and I'll tell you what I think.

    What about retail? I worked for lulu for a little bit. You'd prob have to be available for some evenings, but surely not every shift. They kinda try to brainwash their employees, but the discount (60% for fulltime, 40% for part) was a nice little bonus.

    Definitely looking at lulu. Can't be (I know it is) a bigger cult than CrossFit.
