[Exercise: What's Your Workout?]

I've been so good with the gym that I've just bought myself a pair of Bose noise-cancelling earphones. I hate the music at the gym so I'm sure these will allow me to concentrate a lot more in my workouts while enjoying MY kind of music. Yippieeee!

[Guilty Pleasures: Songs You're Ashamed Of Having On Your MP3 Player]

Bertie Higgins - Key Largo

Dolly Parton/Kenny Rogers - Islands in the stream

I'm sure I have more in my iTunes, these are what I have in my phone.

 

 

[Stupid Movies We Watch Over and Over and Over...]

Two of my favorites star Julia Roberts, although I'm not a big fan of hers.  However, she was great in "Sleeping With the Enemy" and "Notting Hill".

 

Notting Hill is my favorite movie.

[Exercise: What's Your Workout?]

I went back to the gym on July 1st., I have been very consistent, only missed one day; the gym is closed on Sundays. My program is very simple: 5K on the elliptical, 5-10 min. on a treadmill to cool down and I finish with some stretching.

 

There are no classes at 6am which is the only time I can go.

 

I am a routine creature and an accountant so, it's very important to me to be able to quantify what I do, so I am not comfortable using other equipment but I am going to give it a try, I'll probably reduce the elliptical to maybe 3km and then do some upper work.

 

I have to be back at home by 7 to get ready for work, fortunately my boss allows me to be half an hour late as long as I'm doing my workout.

 

I used to go to Curves about 5 years ago, that was one of the best decisions I made, I got in great shape and all I needed was about 40min/day on the weekdays, unfortunately they closed and I haven't been able to achieve that kind of discipline at other gyms. If I had the resources (and space) at my place I would install a Curves circuit in my house, no doubt about it.

@iPad, the embedding only works with YouTube.

 

OMG, I have never seen that video with the Eagles.  Listen to those natural harmonies at the beginning, that gave me goose bumps head to toe!  Thanks so much for that piece of history!  Look at how young they are.  Geesh Louise.

 

Thanks BizBuzz, I thought it had something to do with Youtube.

 

I could not find any good Hotel California Youtube video; The Eagles are very "delicate" about their product being freely appreciated by their audience. I recommend the History of The Eagles documentary if you are an Eagles fan, they show it every once in a while on Showtime (or maybe Encore?)

The whole Slane Castle U2 concert is amazing, but I'm only posting this 2 song combo because it's a gem. All I Want Is You / Where The Streets Have No Name:

 

 

I apologize, I can't seem to be able to embed the first video.

[Small Talk: Where Everybody Knows Your Handle]

Salud!

[S06.E03: Super Greens]

The sperm bank doctor... the one that video calls Cooper, wasn't that Thor?

[The Love Interests: Pale Shadows of Lilith (if that's possible)]

Claire is my choice and I hate Frasier for his behavior when they went on that trip to Belize. She was perfect for him!

[Stupid Movies We Watch Over and Over and Over...]

For some strange reason I have to watch "Something Borrowed" every time it's on.

[Cheers - General Discussion]

This is one of my favorite episodes.
