Answer The Question Above You Honestly V11: Where Drunk Is The New Normal

[TravelinJhwkFan]

Something I was just shown last week: sit on a flat bench with an empty bar on your shoulders. Feet directly under the hips, knees spread as far apart as possible. Bend all the way forward at the waist while keeping a neutral spine, hold for 15-20 seconds. Repeat several times.

It’s great for opening up the hips before a squat session.

Have you ever experienced tendinitis? (FYI-it sucks)

Will try that stretch, sounds great.

Nothing bad enough to prevent me from doing things.

I do them 10 minutes at a time. Never tried going over, but sure I could.





When you fail at something, do you try to cover it up and move on or do you own it, learn from it, and move on?

Learn from it and move on.

Do you actively try to make friends or do people try to make friends with you instead?

[TravelinJhwkFan]

Learn from it and move on.

Do you actively try to make friends or do people try to make friends with you instead?

Both. I'm really social, but I'm stand offish when I meet people. If I'm not fond of you, it's pretty easy to see. If I like you after 20 minutes, it's like I've known you for 20 years.




What's a cool technology coming out soon, that you're looking forward to?

Nursed a hangover until noon then survived a pool party until 3:30 before dipping out to "go feed the puppy."

Destroyed: a convenience store on my way to work with the worst service of all time

How often do you read a book?

I've been "reading" my own book for three months now. I read a few pages here and there. But, I read kids books almost daily. I love the snuggle time and how they love the sound effects I add in. Besides TV/Tablet time, it's the only time I can get the two of them to sit in a room together and not fight or make a ton of obnoxious noise.



If you leave a water bottle at your desk overnight, will you open and drink it the next day?

Yep. And if its at home I'll even drink an open one left out overnight.

I've had platinum/spire status with IHG (Holiday Inn) for over a decade. I considered switching to Marriott once, but they wouldn't match my status and I wasn't about to start over. I stay in the same places when I return somewhere and have come to know the areas where I stay; restaurants, gyms, etc. They treat me well and have frequent point bonuses so I get crazy amounts of points every year as I average 65-75 nights in a hotel.

I'm quite sure that I would never be accused of being either, but if I had to pick, I'd say a sprinter only because I don't enjoy running and want to get it done with ASAP.

I love Philly - its got urban grit, history, great food, genuine people - if I was younger I'd consider living there. San Diego is a great city in its own right too.
