To Dangle or to Wake! That is the question...

I just might. Now that I'm getting near to my 30s and have a baby about to join the family, I need to be more healthy than ever.

My problem with working out is that I'm always suffering some ailment. Ate shit snowboarding an my shoulder is all fucked, or my back aches from lifting drift wood to build a wind shelter. Damn, I'm getting old.

Probably would be good to take it easy for a while and just do something low impact. I'm gonna start swimming at the Hood River pool.

Then you'll probably get sick from all the little Hood River kiddos that are pissin' in the pool. Shocked

Pete, are you speaking from experience?

I'm speaking from the point of pure fabrication and conjecture.

Oh, and the fact that kids tend to piss in public pools.

I started swimming this morning (new gym downtown) - figured it would be a good skill to have as i learn to surf - Its boring as hell - do the underwater mp3 players work?

John, the only underwater MP3 player I have found to work to keep a tight seal is the Otterbox, which is basically a storage device for your Ipod, but with good finger tip control.

The H2Oaudio.....don't buy. Totally leaks. Headsets vary and I view them as disposable. The cheap ones on Ebay for $5 will work for a little while but they have a funky over the ear fitting that I don't think is tight enough however, the rubber casings that come with these will fit over any earphones. I've been using them on my Dell laptop provided earphones in the water for over a year now with no issues.

Overall, with swimming you WILL get water in your ears so let them dry and all will be good again. Kiting with tunes is REALLY fun if you haven't already tried it.

Don't be a douche man, I haven't done shit to you except for state my opinion about something I hold near and dear to my heart. I'll buy you a tequilla shot at the NWKite party.

HR pool is awesome...Forrest look at the schedule and go during adult swim. I maybe opening a can of worms here but isn't pee sterile so it really wouldn't matter anyway.

to dangle or not to dangle..........that is the question.

for Forrest the more pressing issue will be can he be able to tollerate kiddy urine thoughout his life. just be ready for those all those wonderful moments when your baby sprays urine all over you. so special! walking in the house to the smell of it. makes you love that little snapper all the more.

it'll make the HR kiddy pool seem like a dream.

Pete, sorry, I jumped the gun. My apologies for calling you a douche.

I know Ike, I didn't have to open the magazine to predict that. Smile

Time to let this thread die.
