Unfortunately, my plans for workouts in ND collided with the overwhelming work burden that I have and the only workout I got it was at the hotel in Bismarck.

WGOM Fitness: October 30, 2012, Another Day
Last night, I left work early (for me, anyway) and went back to Mom and Dad's. I was tired. I did not sleep particularly well the night before and let's be honest, I haven't exercised in a couple of days. So, I decided to rest. Continue reading WGOM Fitness: October 30, 2012, Another Day

October 30, 2012: Safe Travels
It looks like Sandy is hitting hard. We have WGOM regulars (and I have CdL regulars) on the East Coast, so I certainly hope you've got the shelter you need.
The Pogues – Body Of An American
so, with great sadness, we scratch another name on the wall in memorandum. buffalo, you were simply awesome in your duties. as you know, i lamented to hear your decision to hang it up, but i certainly understood your reasons. like your former partner, there are many things on the JoePod that would not be there if it wasn't for you. and i thank you for that.
we now send the buffalo out to stud (a duty he's apparently been reveling in). godspeed, hitman. enjoy your juleps with the other retirees.
