He's good. Almost back to 100%. He's been back to work all summer but his position isn't physical. Sent me a pic from the local newspaper the other day. Before the operation, he was 245 pounds. He's now at 195 and shooting for 180.

Ok, serious question. My friend and I went for a walk on Sunday and were discussing running. Neither one of us find it the least bit appealing. People who run, however, seem to love it. Are you either a natural born runner or can you train yourself to like it?

I played tennis in high school and could run to a ball all day long, but when we had to run laps, I was ready to collapse after one. I don't mind riding a bike, walking, weights...but running...no.

Honda, used to be about fun. Cheap sensible fun. They always offered great motors in a fun to drive sort of car. They used to be the brand that you could do this in...

..but still get 27mpg in the city.


Now a days they have fallen behind the times, their engines aren't the best, and the handling has become dull. They are truly making cars for the disintrested consumer who just wants to get from point a to b, and not the passionate enthusiast who has a light, but wants to keep it under a bushel.


















btw, that is me in the photo.

Honestly I hate running but is necessary for my health so trained myself to endure it. I lift regularly and enjoy it more. But both are great stress relievers

Interesting points. I could see that to some degree. The thing I've always loved about driving a Honda is the pure get up and go of the engine. My first Accord could flat out fly. Then I got a Civic and it was ok. Then another Accord and it was awesome. I have a Civic now and it can get up there quick, but it doesn't drive as well as the Accords did, even though it is supposed to be a "sports car".

Now that you mention it, my first Accord really was more fun to drive. My friends talked about how smooth and fast it was.

Not that I ever drove over the speed limit...
