Gym Etiquette

                                                 

Gym etiquette includes not dousing the cardio machine with nasty, toxic anti-bacterial spray after you're done using it. A few sprays on your towel, and a quick wipedown is all that's necessary, not a level-5 hazmat detoxification.

Today I watched a guy in front of me spray down his machine with 7 squirts of anti-bacterial cleaner. Either this guy had Ebola or was carrying some terribly hard to kill fungus on his body because otherwise there is NO reason to use that much cleaner.

There should be a show along the lines of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy for people who don't know how to handle themselves at the gym. You know who I'm talking about, those that don't put the weights back, or grunt and scream really loudly, or wear spandex running shorts without anything over the top.

We're Drowning in Seattle!

                                                                  

I go to a gym that is five minutes drive away from my house, and today it took me 30 minutes to get there. One route was backed-up because of standing water on the roadway, another because of an accident and then the final route I chose, through Ballard, was slow because the bridge was up.

The rain is relentless and stranger still, the weather is WARM. It's 65 degrees right now. This feels like what it's like in Hawaii when I've been there and it's rained.

RIP Alija Izetbegovic

                                                                                  

On Sunday the former president of Bosnia-Herzegovina died in Sarajevo.

Izetbegovic had his faults but one can never fault him for his drive to create a multiethnic Bosnia and for his decades long struggle to define Islam in the Titoist atmosphere of pre-1980's Yugoslavia. In the face of Serbian-sponsored genocide and overwhelming odds he rallied his people forward and in the end had to settle for less than he wanted.
