I think this was true until Tuesday night. He’s left them sorta fucked.
In Belgium we have this comics series called 'Blauwbloezen' (blue coats). The story line s about the civil war in the US. One of the main characters has a horse that instantly drops when someone calls 'Attack'.
Didn't know that before and not exactly surprised. Apparently there are multiple bands named "Beethoven", including https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camper_Van_Beethoven
Is he leaning one way or another? If I was his age I’d lean toward something entrepreneurial. Trades maybe. Bright kid, he’ll do well but white collar is dicey.

I just started back to HIIT on the Airdyne the past week or so. Supposed to build VO2 max faster. I’m getting upwards of 110-120 bpm. Plateaued at 67 lbs on weight loss even thought my waist keeps shrinking. Maybe the weight training.
I didn’t have to work this hard in my 30s. Grr.
