    I am so wishing warm weather on PA for the next week or so! It looks cold up that way….(sitting here pulling out Winter clothing for upcoming trip).

    Wouldn’t it be neat if the Florida tracks could go in together on a Superbowl ad showcasing the dogs and the fun they have running?

    The new GED exam is almost not passable. This should be a real concern at a national level. How can we allow our educational leaders to set the standards so high that people cannot pass a GED unless they are college ready.

    Did you know that in order to enter a vocational school that receives Federal funding a student must either have a High School Diploma or pass the GED?

    For anyone who is having concerns or issues with kids in school I think this is very worthwhile ready! @[100001806009924:2048:Brian] and @[100000197693750:2048:David] I think we had talked about this for different reasons. Please do not take this the wrong way.

    Well, the results of my workout challenge are in for the month of January. I did pretty good. First, I did meet the challenge at the Y. I biked 215 miles, ran for 182 miles, and swam 10 miles (weather got cold and pool is outdoors). Not bad!

    Good morning all! It is currently 71 degrees outside according to the Backyard Weather Thingy and we have a light breeze of 11mph across the ridge. I think we will see close to 80 today. Someone said something about some football game or something this evening. Really don’t care. Now how about broadcasting a few Greyhound races at the same time on another channel. Would be interesting to see which gets more views?
    Anyways, I am off to the gym to get my run for the day in, and then I think I am going to come home and play with some dogs. (Oh, Peanut may get a bath – if she is already pissed off at me we may just make her more so. She escaped the last 2 rounds of bath).
    Everyone have a great day!
