Number of Sudoku's from the book finished: 39 / 100 (can't finish some!)

Travis Pastrana is my Hero.
This 22 year old x-games motocross master has won 7 or 8 x-games titles, broken 20+ bones, and is now playing around with a Subaru in Rally Racing! His stunts and tricks are effortless to him, making it a whole lot easier than what it looks. This years X-games he busted the first double backflip on a motocross bike!


I like how the brain has this emergency system where when something sketchy is coming your way it tries to prevent you from going your all. And all these x-gamers just bypass this mental and sometimes physical (been there, done that) hesitation that can either make it, or break it. It really is mind over matter.
In Bonus Pastrana news, he also won Gold in a new event for the x-games, a rally race. The first few minutes show a jump and a very nice pendulum hairpin turn. The near the end World Rally Racer Champ Collin McRae barrel rolls his car landing tires down and making it! Sweet!



In more mundane news, Saturday i ordered some Chinese foods to go and BOTH fortune cookies states:

Dood..
As if i don't get razzed enough for being San Franciscian!
