Finishing A Project

Just in the final process of finishing up a project that’s been years in the making.

All is well.

I’ll be taking a vacation from posting this week, and won’t even be putting up lame reposts as I’ve been about 360 weeks with doing posts three times a week (yes, that includes lame reposts, but not podcast posts) and am taking a week off, see you next Monday.

We will be doing the podcast on Wednesday, which is the funniest thing that you’re not currently listening to.

TTFN.

  1. I am absolutely terrible at finishing a project. I have projects that are untouched that have been sitting around for four years since I retired.

    I watched The Expanse on my garage rowing machine a while back (sigh, another activity that has somehow gone on hold over the winter) and I was struck by this line from Amos. I’ve rerun it in my mind ever since:

    Amos had some other words of wisdom:

    1. I liked Amos as a character – they fed him some great lines. The Expanse was interesting. Glad they finished it.

  2. (Sighs into coffee, realizes a week with Wilder is like a week without sunshine….)

    Congratulations are in order. The completion of any project is a celebration; one that one has been working on for years even more so.

    1. “(Sighs into coffee, realizes a week with Wilder is like a week without sunshine….)”
      Well, at least it will be sunny this week.

  3. Well, okay. I had to comment. You may already know depending on where you got the pic, but for everyone else, that overweight guy in the picture is none other than Joe Cross, the producer of the movie “Sick, Fat & Nearly Dead”, that documents his 60 day juice fast and the results were astonishing.

    It’s because of him and a daily helping of a Chris Powell workout video that I lost 65 lbs during the spring of 2017. Joe’s a pretty cool guy, and he has a great Australian accent!

  4. I find that finishing a project inevitably leads to two equally negative outcomes: [1] discovering that the current project requires further unanticipated effort; or [2] a new project, usually more complicated.

    My condolences.

  5. For pastime while the break is ongoing:

    A unique perspective on Tucker’s interview with Putin (backed up with all the necessary sources). I mean, there really is nowhere else to meet it, backed up by the necessary factual justification. In case you are interested in more details, scroll down and review the next comments of the same person. This, for example (recommend). And I argue that this is exactly the actual reason for the interview (review, open the links and review more if you wish).

    Explanatory context, concerning the above.

    (I have no idea exactly what this site is and I don’t care; I visited it for the first time the day I made the comment. It is enough for me that it is a “site that allows my comments”.)

    1. Fascinating – never been by that site before. Not sure why Tucker went there, but it would be hard to turn the opportunity down.

  6. I’ve been following a while now, and it’s been rare to see even a ‘lame repost’. It worries me, because seven days w/o a post from WWW will make one weak. Hopefully, your return to the interwebs will chronical a new day.

    1. Heh! Nope, just decided to take an actual vacation while I finished some stuff up. I’ll write a bit more about that on Friday.
