Long Day

Just got home. We migrated the last of our old servers to VMware. If you are running Exchange on bare metal, you are a fucking moron. ;)

I'm still longing for the day to pull the plug on Exchange, it is bloated crap. If I had it to do over it would be Zimbra or Open-Exchange on Linux.

Long term, I'm just going to outsource this bullshit to Gmail/Postini.

Scored a free, old York Olympic set yesterday. The old fashioned York Plate holder was included. Now I need to find the energy to carry all the shit into the cellar.

Could not get awake.

Romanian Deadlifts w/ trap bar - 3x20
Standing Preses

Grip Training

Piddled.Tough enough time trying to "grasp" reality today.


What is it with the lack of interest with the British Championships? We are not surprised
about our "savage" friend backing out. Videos can be edited, springs can be swapped, wrist curl plates can be switched, but the platform is the leveler. ;) The rest of you have no excuses.
When I started grip, the photos of the British Championships were the first that I found.
It's sad to see it potentially go down the shitter.

We almost went a week without mention of the "fat man" blob on the GB. ;)

ANOTHER LEGACY BLOB WARNING

We see that some are still peddling York "LEGACY" Blobs as RARE on EBAY.
Avoid the temptation to buy into this crap. You are better off getting a hex dumbbell
and cutting it if you cannot find a real old, classic York blob.

Look into the PDA Blobette also. When you get to handling 50 pounds on a
blobette, real blobs will be running away in fear of you. ;)

Smarten up people.
