See, the key to any successful exercise regime is the proper motivation.

I honestly think my grand total won from foreign lotteries in the past 6 months is approaching enough to bail out an auto company. What’s even more annoying is that these e-mails will occasionally make it through to my Blackberry, in which case I have to stop what I’m doing, get up, check it, grimace, and then delete it. All valuable seconds I could be using to think about sandwiches.

What’s kind of eerie though is the fact that these seem to be the ONLY kind of spam I get. No male enhancement ads, no viruses, no Nigerian money laundering requests (though after the LICD arc dealing with that, I doubt anyone gets those anymore). Just lotteries, and after a certain number of them show up in your inbox, they start to seem kinda legit… that seed of doubt is planted… maybe I should stop deleting them…

Switching gears, have you ever tried to sell a VHS tape? It is no easy feat these days I can tell you. I have a whack of them, and I realized the other day that I don’t even own a VCR anymore. I threw up an ad on Craigslist, offering these cinematic gems for the low price of a buck each, or best offer. Not one sold. I tried to donate them to a few different places and they all said “thanks, but no thanks.” I would be a bummer to just trash them, so I need to figure out something creative to do with them. Ideas…?

Anyway, while that’s rattling around in your brain, I want to leave you with a bit of a tease. I don’t want to ruin your weekend by filling it with anticipation that will surely gnaw at your insides like so many beavers trying to escape, but I kind of have to. I’m not going to say too much, but be sure to be here Monday. That’s right, Monday.

There’s doin’s a-transpirin’…
