Today is Thursday, March 11, 2013. My stats today: 10 minutes of yoga, 10 minutes on the ball and 37 minutes of walking = 2.0 miles for an April total of 23.0 miles. My weight was 161.6 pounds.
Inspiring QUOTE from Abigail Van Buren: " Maturity is; The ability to stick with a job until it's finished and the ability to do a job without being supervised."
My THOUGHTS are on a pink locker room. An article on the OPINION page in the CR Gazette made me laugh. It was written by Bob Elliot, a former City Council member in Iowa City. He wrote about the Kinnick Stadium visitor's locker room that Hayden Fry ordered to be painted pink in the 1980s. The pink locker room was apparently a psychological ploy by Fry to make the opposing players feel like little girly - pansies and not be as aggressive as they should. Anyway, there are a couple of attorneys concerned that using pink is a form of taunting the other team.
Regardless of that view what made me laugh is this. The author said if pink is psychologically devastating enough to be illegal, what about the other colors? Which shade of pink should be banned? For instance, shades of pink include rose, fuchsia, salmon, carnation and coral. Darker shades of pink include maroon, lavender or magenta. And what if Herky got pink eye? In my opinion, this whole thing about a pink locker room is a ridiculous thing to get uptight about.
