Today - the back is killing me - hence the inspiration to my last entry. There's some level of pain daily, but for the last two days its gotten rather.., hefty. On the good news.., I lost a total of 8 pounds over the last 2 ½ months. I haven't gone on any special diet, and exercise is rather limited so - as long as I don't drop past 175 pounds (when I hit 175 pounds) this is a good thing. Hopefully this trend continues.
My suggested weight by bone mass, etc.., is 165.., but thats crap. At 165 pds I could be knocked off my feet like a feather. Ancient history says 175 pounds was my personal ideal weight. Unless I shrunk like my Dad has.., I'm 5'11" tall. I find it funny or somewhat surreal that when asked his hight, Dad will automatically say 5'11". He used to be, but now? Just guestimating.., today he is about 5' 8" if that. Its a funny thing how some men (or even women) will shorten with age, and others are pretty much the same as in their youth.
Here's one for Herb. I purchased my first western paperback book since I was around 15 years of age. And yep - Louis L'Amour - is the man! When I was a kid, thats almost ALL I would read is Louie L'Amour books. The Church's pastor where the family attended found out and told my Dad that these were evil, vile literature and that resulted in Dad trashing them. If it were the porn variety - I would have understood. but anyways..., I'm not sure why its taken me this long to pick up reading them again. The fact that it was on sale for dirt cheap also gave me incentive.. LOL. So now I'm reading the dirty vile Louis L'Amour's "SHALAKO". YAY ME!
Incidentally - the Pastor's 10 year old son read westerns religiously. I had a hard time respecting that man. Not all of them were like that preacher - thank God. Double standardisms are hard to respect.

If you have not read the last blog entry covering the news of a meteorite causing villagers to get sick - please read that entry now before continuing on. Its short and concise with a link to the actual news article.
 Officials sent for a special recovery team to unearth the meteorite which oddly enough was the size of a small Volkswagen. Scientists are baffled because a meteor that size should have had the effect of a nuclear bomb, laying waste everything for about a hundred or so miles. Its believed something caused the meteor to slow down before impact, thankfully.
Within hours of retrieval - the recovery team disappeared along with a few curious villagers. No one knows what happened to them as no trace has been found. No tracks leaving, personal and business vehicles have not been moved and to add to the deepening mystery.., cell phones as well as expensive scientific equipment valuing into tens of thousands of dollars were left behind.
Other details are sketchy but a few of the Peruvian villagers swear some kind of glowing orange and greenish pulsing lights pulsated from the direction of the site of the crater and ever since Tuesday night it has been deathly quiet, which coincides with the alleged disappearances.
FOX NEWS UPDATE: "While a meteor did strike in a Peruvian village and made villagers ill, your leg is being pulled by the latest blog entry of Daveman. We ourselves find the real story less than interesting and have not covered it. However, we trust Daveman's next update on the matter will be more centered around reality."
And there you have it folks.., Daveman has been pulling your legs with this newest blog entry..., and..., and..., Okay okay here's the truth but I warn you.., its less dramatic than my improved version above. The real update is.., they believe the villagers were made ill from the blended gasses and dirt from the crater when they approached the smoking hole, which by the way, shrank from 100 feet wide by 20 feet deep TO 65 feet wide to 22 feet deep. Initial news reports are almost always distorted somewhat. However - do not be completely disappointed no zombie plague is coming from this. Its a possibility the government is covering it up.. you seen the movies.., so quit looking at me like that. It could happen. Maybe.
| NOTE: Today is National "Talk Like a Pirate" Day.., and no.., as silly as this sounds.., Im serious. Arrrr Matey! Ye be talkin' trash neow. |

Real Andromeda Strain or ... ?
Real News Event! Folks.., this is equal to Science Fiction meets real life - OR - a Biblical like event.., take your pick. A meteorite smashed to Earth, leaving a hundred foot wide, 20 foot deep crater in a Peruvian village. Particles of rocks and cinders lay nearby - as boiling water began coming out of the crater. By Saturday the villagers were getting seriously ill with headaches and vomiting.
My guess is its radiation, or it released a deadly space-born microbe OR perhaps poisoned their water supply. It would be interesting to watch for more details on this story to see what is going on. If it were a space-born microbe / virus / pathogen.., I would imagine the government(s) would try to cover it up and contain it.
DUDE! WERE ALL GUNNA BE FREAKING ZOMBIES! - Well - except for me.., and a select few others. Just like in the movie - Night of the Comet.
My Last Guess: Perhaps the meteorite hit a gas pocket?
(Zombies seems be the theme this week)
