Training is dedication to your craft and to yourself. This is one of my oldest friends, Ben Mead. Ben just recently fought in his first MMA fight not to long ago and recorded a knockout. Ben is the type of friend that you are pretty sure has one screw a little loose up top. I think that is why I certainly wouldn't want to mess with him. I know he has been working hard and getting ready for whenever a fighter calls him name to meet them in the ring.

As we head into another high school football season, I was able to capture the photo of the football spotted and ready for play. I searched online for a quote about football being life and ran across the wording seen here on the nikegridiron.com site. If you've ever played football or been a part of a football team (especially high school!!), then you understand these feelings, emotions, and thoughts. My two favorites are "The silence on the bus." and "Doing it for all the players who wore a uniform before you."

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
I may not be there yet, but I’m closer than I was yesterday.
I used to work in an antique and gift shop in Chester. The woman that owned the store had as much difficulty in throwing things away as I do. She saved stuff that I even thought was odd!
Every inch of space of the desk area in the shop was crammed with stuff. It made it difficult to move, and to find things, but I was kind of used
to that, being that is also my standard operating procedure. I was also friends with another woman that owned a shop in Mendham, and she was closing
her store and moving, so I introduced her to the woman that I worked for because she had some display fixtures and supplies to sell. She told us about
all the things that she had just given away/donated/gotten rid of and what a freeing experience that was. When the woman that I worked for moved
from one store to another, I was no longer working there, but I went in to help her pack things up and she did the same... gave things away/ donated/and got rid of.
And then SHE went on to tell me what a wonderful experience it was to lighten the load. I swore to myself that it’s now time for me to do the same, way past time actually,
but you get the idea.
So, today I went into work and I cleaned off my desk. I have a tendency to save and store everything... ziploc bags, the cardboard hangers that come in the boxes of
Nike slides, the little silica desiccant packets that come in the shoe boxes (yeah, don’t ask...) and then there is paperwork... I save all the reports, the bulletin board is full
of YES YOU DIDs (little notes written from coworker to coworker for things that they did good.... there’s at least 2 years worth of them) , phone numbers of people that
no longer work there, even reminders to me of when certain customers’ birthdays are (no idea why ~ Mrs. Clinton’s birthday is ..... and she will be 86.... I saved that one, because
Mrs Clinton is very cool and I do want to remember her birthday!), shoe sizes of certain coworkers so that I can alert them to great deals, etc.... Anyway, I filled a garbage bag today as
my coworker looked on in disbelief. Then I took the garbage back to the dumpster and said to one of the managers on my way out... Nancy is very confused... I just cleaned my
desk, and the bulletin board, and threw stuff away. He laughed and said, without hesitation....”She probably thinks you’re quitting.” They all know. They are all kind enough to
not ask me why I save all this stuff or what in God’s name is wrong with me.
My plan was to come home today and continue this uncharacteristic behavior at home. But then I looked around, and before I could get started, I decided that I really needed a nap.
Just the thought of it was exhausting. Tomorrow. I’ll start tomorrow. Still... I AM closer than I was yesterday!
Had an almost all day photo session last week with my daughters Softball Team. She is the one Bottom Left with the Bandanna on :). Thanks Coach Samora for letting me kick up there team photo.

I'm reposting this old family portrait to give myself an added incentive to stick to my weight loss diet, and to exercise regularly!! I do want to be as slim as I was in this photo. Can I do it? Well, I have taken off 32 pounds. My pant's waist size has gone down from 44 to 38 inches. Another 30 pounds should take me to my grad school weight and a 34-inch waist. It could have been 32 inches in this photo. Of course, I was exercising in the weight room on Kwajalein Island three nights a week with a good friend, Jack France who I met on Kwaj. Today I will start workout sessions on a multi-station exercise machine.
This photo is from 1963. I was a graduate student in Physics at MIT. I took a leave of absence to go to Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean with MIT's Lincoln Laboratory. Here I am with my firstborn son Jonathan. We are on a speedboat in the lagoon on the weekend.
This shot was taken by Kent Kresa, who was an MIT Lincoln Laboratory Test Director. It was taken using a German film camera, not a Canon digital camera.
I previously posted this photo on some Kwaj Groups on Flickr, I have tried locating the trailer we lived in. It was in a trailer park called "Silver City" on the northeast corner of the island. It was built on sand dredged onto the reef before we arrived. I have thousands of my own 35mm slides from Kwaj that I took with the Nikon cameras and lenses from Japan that I bought at the army post exchange aka "Macy's" on Kwajalein Island at the southern tip of the atoll.
The boat was a "Boston Whaler." I just remembered these excellent boats were purchased for recreational use by Lincoln Lab by Jimmy Maripoti's Dad who worked for LL.
Another shot in this album shows a map of where we were. Kwajalein Island is in the Marshall Islands, in the Pacific Ocean. We were there from 1962 to 1964.
Kwajalein Island is on Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands in Micronesia.
Random remembrances:
The MIT Lincoln Laboratory team I was on was trying to gain knowledge about identifying reentering warheads. We used radar and optical telescopes on Roi Namur Island at the northern tip of the Kwajalein Atoll. It was 60 miles north of Kwajalein Island. We flew there and back each workday on non-pressurized, non-air-conditioned DC-3 airplanes... Those Were the Days...;))
I took a Hebrew course on Kwaj as part of the University of Hawaii's extension program. My teacher was Steve London, an Israeli engineer who was head of the Martin-Marietta team responsible for the Zeus Missile launches on Kwaj.

This is the abandoned weight room at Cass Tech in Detroit. The school was built in 1917 and abandoned in 2005, surprisingly a lot of stuff was just left there to rot.
