Tonight's Online Reading

A tour of the Creationism Museum in Kentucky. Apparently a number of members Panda's Thumb met up and took a tour. It's a three parter.

Sounds like a slice of Americana.

Wiize

I've had a Wii for a few weeks now.

I highly recommend one. It's great fun. The Wii Sports is worth its weight in gold alone.

That said, the Wii is a stern taskmaster. There is a "Wii Fitness" option where it tests your fitness level in three exercises that involve random combinations of their sports(baseball, tennis, bowling, golf, boxing). After throwing you through the virtual meat grinder, it calculates your fitness age.

The first time I took the test, it was given a fitness age of 65.

Surely that was beginner's luck. A few tries later, not much better. Then yesterday. 80. Yes, I blew the boxing exercise.

Now, if my fitness age is equivalent to that of an 80 year old japanese person, then I figure I'm ahead of the game.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Today featured a punching bag test and some bowling exercises. When it comes to bowling and punching the stuffing out of inanimate objects, I'm 34.

Sweet.

Today's word: agrestic (adjective)

Pull this word out of your hat when you've overused "rural" or rustic".
