Weekend

Hi Dudes!

Check out the Execution of a Chump video.




What is up?  Another Bix @ 6 is in the books.  This week was huuumid.  Besser and I did not run as fast as previous weeks.  The air was too thick.  But I still ran pretty well.

Getting close to the 170s...

Hi Dudes!


Bix @ 6 was perfect.  We had great weather and I felt great.  It was one of the best runs I have had in a long time.  I had fun passing Gary too...I held my breath when I ran by so he didn't know I was working hard.  Brooksie looked pretty comfortable sitting on the side of the road drinking Miller Lite.  Maybe Brooks isn't really hurt?  Hmmmm.....

After my Chump Rant, I thought I would share somethings that I do like.  Red Hot Brian Scott.  That dude is genius.  I don't always catch his morning show, but they play his "greatest hits" and "highlights" throughout the day.  That dude is a QC icon.  I remember being at the Funny Bone a few months ago and he was there.  I know, right!  Anyway, dude sat down at his booth and his man thong crept out over his jeans.  A little male whale tail.  That was what prompted me to go out and get my a few for myself.  Iowa State...here I come.


I ran down to watch the Firecracker race on Sunday.  Moreno took this race back over, and did a great job.  It was about 11.5 miles from my house.  My Sherpa (brooks) met me down there with some Gatorade and a towel.  Holla!  We watched a bunch of runners (and a boat load of walkers) had a couple of Reebs, and had a nice little Sunday.   


Now back to the real world.

Chump Rants

Hi Dudes!


Welcome back and welcome to the first installment of Chad Rants (or Chump Rants).  Some of you have heard of Zero-to-Mad, or Zero-to-Chad.  It is basically when something sets the kid off.


Chump Rants are my way of dealing with some of these issues in a more constructive way.

For example - I don't like radio commercials with some local business owner's kid on it.  You may think it is cute, but I can't understand a wowd your kid is saying.  Yeah, it's WORD not wowd.  What is cute to you, is insanely irritating to me. "My daddy can fix yo cumputer".  Really?  Can he?  Because he can't seem to teach his beloved child to speak clearly.  Maybe daddy should spend less time on the computer and more time bonding with his son.  Does he really think that people will be driving in their cars and call him after listening to his dumb-ass kid?  Maybe.  But only because I feel sorry for his special needs kid and want to throw a little money his way.  Pitch me your product like a man and move on.

So how was your day lil fellas?  While Chris is slowly falling apart, I am on fire.  There's a new sheriff in town...and it's me.  Holla! 


Bix @ 6 is tomorrow and Brooks will be on the sideline.  Maybe he can carry my bags for me while I crush the course?  For Realz!

A tale of 2 chumps

Hi Dudes!


Welcome to my 21st blog post.  Does that mean my blog can drink now?  Holla!


Some of you have asked about my diet plan.  Some of you are not familiar with "The Tale of two Chads",  it was a lesser known Charles Dickens novel.  Let me illustrate.


The top picture is me a couple of years ago.  The bottom picture, well that that's me on the right, chillin at my class reunion.

Yeah, I know.  That is for REALZ!


But all of that is history.  I will be rollin at 170 before you can say...HOLLA!


Okay, enough about that.  People have been calling me "Chump" since college.  But what does "Chump" really mean?


Glad you asked...here are seven definitions and examples;

	1) Someone who does not understand the basics of life on earth. confused easily. 'My friend Chad is such a chump. He talks a lot but nothing of any relevance comes out. In fact he is a world champion chump'.
	2)  A sucka that tries to act cool, but is really a fool and tries to act tough, but really isn't a.Person who says they have a million dollars but is really poor. b.Person who says they kill you with a gun, but the only gun they have is a plastic one.
	3)  A stupid or gullible person You chumps don't have a clue what this guy is up to.
	4)  Pathetic character who is often reminded of his (guys are labeled as chumps far more than girls) shortcomings by superiors. Synonymous with 'loser'
	5)  An individual who appears unattractive to the opposite sex and contains no social skills to mitigate the handicap. Contrarily the "Chump" reveres them self as a superior in all situations without any basis for this status. 6) Predominantly male social outcast Joe: "How was the bar last night? any luck with the ladies?" Chad: "Everybody wanted me, but I decided to come home and get the worlds highest score on Call of Duty instead." Joe:  Dude, you re a Chump
	7) A person who is being unnecessarily condescending or disdainful, often because of their own internalized judgmental opinions. I'd like a new name...for REALZ!

Des Moines in the house

Hi Dudes!

What's up lil fellas?  The kid is back in Davenport and ready for another week of 11000111000111.  Binary ROCKS!

Is it odd that my bicycle weighs more than my car?  I think my car gets better gas millage too.  ...and don't call me Surly.

Speaking of weight...the kid is at 185 L-Bs!  Holla!  As you readers know it took forevs to get from 220 to 200.  The last 15 have come off really quickly.  Look out ladies, pretty soon it will be time to rock out with my gock out.

As that great "Bump N' Grind" song by R KELLY goes: "My mind is telling me no but my body my body's telling me yes I...I don't see nothing wrong with a little chump and grind."

Bix @ 6

Hi Dudes!

Remind me not to make fun of Besser on this blog.  He destroyed the kid...for realz!  We hammered through the Bix route at 7:11 pace.  What is a near death experience?

Bonus - I found an IPod Shuffle.  Biggity Bamm!  Holla!  If you lost your I Pod Shuffle on the Bix route I'm sure it wasnt the same one I found.  Unless you love Barry Manilow, this probably isn't your I Pod.

"Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
She would merengue and do the cha-cha
And while she tried to be a star, Tony always tended bar
Across the crowded floor, they worked from eight til four
They were young and they had each other
Who could ask for more?
At the Copa, (Co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest spot north of Havana, (here)
At the Copa, (Co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
Music and passion were always the fashionAt the Copa .... they fell in love"

Okay, for REALZ.  Who can run to this?  Were they out of Frankie Valli or the Carpenters?  And I thought Brooks was a nerd.  He has just been out nerded.  Congrats mystery nerd Bix @ 6 runner.  You don't deserve to have an I Pod Shuffle anyway.  The music Karma God's stole it from you and gave it to me.  I can't wait to load my one word techno beats...oop pst, oop pst, bam.  Maybe a little "Oops I did it again!"?

Doesn't matter what I load...it will rock the hell out of COPA, COPACABANA.  I'd like to buy a vowel please.
