Another Useless Bit Of fraNk Trivia

"As a freshman in high school, fraNk was 5'3" tall and weighed 109 lbs"

Yes, this is true, the next year I went up to about 5'5" and 119 lbs, then my junior year I really grew, to 155 lbs, don't remember how tall I was though. I believe I was right about 176 lbs when I graduated, but that also included my 3 months in basic training, during which I gained some upper body mass. Now, well, refer to the last post haha.

Immortality?

I was thinking a little bit last night about what it might be like to live forever. I also wondered what point in my life I would pick, as in, what age I would want to be. I decided a person should pick when they were in the best physical shape of their life, for me that would be when I was 24 years old.

Right now I'm sitting right about 200 lbs, I am in relatively good shape, I could toss on running shoes and go run 5 miles if I had to, and I could do 50 pushups and 50 situps if need be. But when I was 24, I was 180 lbs of lean mean fitness machine. I was working that summer in a factory making the wooden pieces for postal carts *one of the worst jobs I ever had, yes, I have had a lot of bad jobs haha* I was cutting 2' X 3' plywood sections out of 8' X 4' plywood sheets, doing about 500 of them a day.

Now, right now my upper body is probably just as good as it was then, but back then when I would get home at night, I would do about 200 pushups and 200 situps and also run about 3 miles, every single day. Nowadays I really don't have the time to do that, although I would like to. Also, I don't know if it's getting older or having the extra 20 lbs on me, but I can't run nearly as fast as I did back then, I get winded so much easier. I will try to get myself into a lot better shape this summer.

I guess the dilemma is this: does a person pick the time in their life when they were in the best shape, or the time that they were happiest? I say the best shape, because happiness is not primary in this situation, meaning, you have all the time in the world to find happiness, you are immortal. But you have only one period in your life to pick for being immortal. Did that make sense? I hope so.

Bah, who would want to be immortal anyway, buy the time I'd reach about age 250 I would probably want to be dead anyway Haag, as much as I dislike change.

What's For Dinner?

Tonite, spaghetti. I make the word's best spaghetti, I would put my spaghetti up against anyone's spaghetti, that is for sure. And I use meat, lots of meat, none of that lame veggie bullshit either. Let's say for whatever reason, that I am being fed my last meal, and I can pick whatever I want to eat *looks around nervously, I don't think I'll ever be eating my last meal, SHHH, cops don't know about me* anyways, if I had to pick that meal, it would be my own spaghetti. Too bad I didn't like something like my own salad, I seem to eat too much of my spaghetti heh heh.

Another Useless Bit Of fraNk Trivia

I'll try to make this a frequent installment of my blog to help those of you (2 at the most) who actually read my blog. (did I say two? Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic, oh well).

"fraNk knows how to break dance"

Let's break this particular statement down though, I can do two break dancing moves, the worm, and the moonwalk. The worm isn't terribly hard, it just requires a bit of flexibility, coordination, and not minding if you crush your balls for a little bit. The moonwalk on the other hand, that is tough. It requires a lot more coordination and timing. Is this something to brag about? Undoubtedly no, especially when considering that I can't fast dance worth a shit. If I was about to be killed, and someone said I could save my life by fast dancing and doing it good, well, you might as well shoot me because I'm doomed.

But back in the 80's, the moonwalk was the pinnacle of freestyle break dancing, if you could do the moonwalk, your social status was improved immeasurably, your cool level went up so much... unfortunately, by the time I really got good at it, moonwalking was pretty much a thing of the past, with the next 'big thing' having come along, though I'm not sure now what that might have been.

But, just for the record, I can breakdance... a little.
