One hour strike class.

4 at 8:30, random incline to 2.0%.  1 at 8:30, incline 4%.


 Random thoughts by some others:

  1. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented?
  2. If people from Poland are called Poles, why aren’t people from Holland called Holes?
  3. Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?
  4. If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled?
  5. If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?
  6. Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
  7. When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?
  8. Why is a person who plays the piano called a pianist but a person who drives a racing car not called a racist?
  9. Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites?
  10. If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn’t it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, tree surgeons debarked, and dry cleaners depressed?
  11. What hair color do they put on the driver’s licences of bald men?
  12. No one ever says, ‘It’s only a game’ when their team is winning.
  13. Ever wonder about those people who spend $4.00 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backwards: NAIVE
  14. Isn’t making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?
  15. If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea, does that mean that one enjoys it?

2.5 at 6:15, -3% decline snuck in before one hour step interval class.

 Turn the logo for the Chicago Bulls pro basketball team upside down, and it’s a robot sitting on a park bench reading a bible.
