From the All Things Ron Newsteam… it’s a Weekend Update
Our Top Story
In all of my years living in this building, this is the first time I’ve ever found someone else’s cooking to be so overpowering that it overpowers my own stink. There is someone, possibly my new neighbour, cooking fish and it smells horrible. Ugh.
In Local News…
My mood has been surprisingly good despite no recent changes. I haven’t gone out of my way to do anything different. So… here’s hoping that keeps up? Right now I’m partaking in one of my favourite pastimes and that’s just blasting music and singing along as badly as I can. Who says I can’t be the lead singer of Radiohead? That’s just crazy.
I’ve also decided I’m going to ramp up my blogging. I’m going to update a few times a week and keep you up to date on what’s going on with this whole workout stuff because…
Taking a look at your health…
Ok. I haven’t done this Prison Workout deal I posted about. I’m kind of intimidated by it. I doubt I could do a push-up to save my life and I’m thankful I’m never in a position where I have to actually do it for survival. I think I need to dial it back and pick something up that’s not so crazy intense. Perhaps even figure out a hybrid system. I’ll take some elements of the Prison Workout (such as that crazy core exercise) and combine it with the body weight exercises listed over at Nerd Fitness. Wait… re-reading that, it calls for 40 push-ups! Godammit!
From the world of entertainment now…
In the last week or so I’ve been able to fly through every episode of 30 Rock. That show is holy crap hilarious and I’m surprised I never got into it before. Every single character on this show is perfect and fits flawlessly into the dynamic this show creates. Tina Fey plays Liz Lemon and is the head of a writing team for a sketch comedy show on NBC. If you’re not up to date on this show, you’re a dork. Seriously. Start watching!
I’m also keeping up with the Kids in the Hall “Death Comes to Town” mini-series. It focuses on a small-town called Shuckton and has a great cast of characters as well. After losing their bid to host the Olympics, Mayor Larry Bowman is murdered sending the town in shock. It’s a shame that character dies early on because he’s fantastic. I’m not going to go into detail describing everything. You can Google it.
We now take you to our weather specialist…
I find it funny that the US is being hammered by SNOWMAGEDDON~!@ and are basically being trapped by snow. Up here in Toronto we have very little snow. I don’t think we’ve actually had a very big snowfall in a long time. I could be wrong as I haven’t left my house in about a month but whatever. There’s no snow in my apartment. That’s all I REALLY care about.
Feeling lucky? Here are your lottery numbers!
I guess that’s really it. If I’m leaving anything out then there’s a good chance I won’t remember by the time Monday rolls around when I grace you with another update.
What keeps you motivated? Let me know in the comments!

Ron,
I know it calls for 40 pushups, but you can totally scale that down to whatever works for you. If you can do just 1 pushup on your knees, it’s a start. Then the next time out, try to do 2.
Just get one better, each time.

I’ll probably try and crank out as many as I can. I did find another post of yours (thanks to Steve@265andfalling) where you posted a slightly different workout that had less in the push-up department. I may give that a shot instead. Heh.
One of the big reasons is that I don’t have anywhere I could reasonably do a pull-up without looking like a pedo on a playground.
