Responsibility 199, what is it?

Responsibility 199 is a belief; I believe that to be healthy and to increase my longevity I need to weigh 199 pounds or less...
Responsibility 199 is a need; I need to reduce my weight, reduce my percentage of body fat, and the elevated threat of disease my present condition presents...
Responsibility 199 is a mission; I recognize that achieving 199 will be a challenge, perhaps the hardest I have ever undertaken...
Responsibility 199 is a commitment; I acknowledge that I must commit to action, commit to change, commit to myself and those I love to achieve this mission, to increase my longevity...
Responsibility 199 is ME.

Day 369 - Things That Make Me...


Things That Make Me... LAUGH
Smart Cars make me laugh. The concept, purpose of them, I get it. But they are just funny looking and I laugh everytime I see one.

Things That Make Me... Go HUH
Zhu Zhu Pets are a testimony to the power of ideas.
For Christmas shopping season 2009 we drove ourselves koo-koo looking for these things.
Someone had an idea, a battery operated colorful hamster that putts around and makes noise.
That someone is a gabagazillionaire now.
Huh?

Things That Make Me... MMM
Buffalo Wings make me go MMM.  One of my temptations I have to be cautious around for sure.

Things That Make Me... COOL!
Eeyore is the coolest of the 100 Acre Woods gang, by far! He is my definition of Cool!
Yeah, he is glum on the outside, but on the inside; he is the hero of optimists everywhere!

Things That Make Me... BELIEVE

Look way up top there.
There you see my wife with the Stanley Cup.
One of them gives me reason to believe in victory.
One of them give me purpose behind my belief in victory.
Shouldn't be too hard to figure which does which.

My wife & I, without the Stanley Cup, are off this afternoon to check out some colleges in Indiana & Ohio with one of our sons.
We'll be back on Saturday.
Hope all enjoy the rest of their week!

  9. I agree about the Zhu Zhu pets. I have no clue what they are for and what they do. I also feel the same way about smart cars! Have a good weekend!
