No, it's Kermit casting a spell which in this case means he'll shoot you dead in the head.

New toys I got this weekend. New running shoes, basketball, Frisbee, & table Tennis set
Look into Saucony's. Those are my running shoe brand. About to buy my fifth pair lol.
In related news, ran a 10k this morning. 109% humidity and 80+ degrees at like 8 am. Maybe the most miserable run I've done lol. Time wasn't great, ended up five mins behind my goal of 1:05. Walked a fair amount as it was just that awful. Normally this event is in late March when it's 35 degrees colder lol
10k miles? That 16km. 16km in one 1hour 10 is pretty impressive!!! Are you some semi-pro runner?
LOL no I wish I could run that fast. 10k is 6.2 miles.
I see. Still pretty good. Most important is an active lifestyle. Lat time I ran10km was ages ago.
Thanks man! Was really happy to get it done, as it's the furthest I've ran since September when I did some serious ligament damage to my left hamstring.
I have mixed some walking/backtball with jogging. When you are recovering, its better to go slow. Depends on your goals though I guess. My goal is to shred weight & reach my target of under 14% body fat goal, & finally, get that 6 pack abs that eluded me. I am like 25% body fat so I have a long way, but its importnat to set a goal & more importantly be consistent.
At my bodyfat, its more important to shred weight than go for timing, & make sure I do not injure myself.
Has anyone used any of the major job finder sites lately and have any recommendations? My workplace has gone from apathy to downright toxicity lately. I at least want to fish for some offers to get them to pay me more to stay if not just leave.
Last time I searched for a job, resumes needed an envelope and a stamp. Is it worth it to put a resume up on indeed.com or will I just get tons of spam and low ball offers?

I could tell them about all the bugs that go back to BF3 they still haven't fixed yet
Indeed and LinkedIn exist for a reason. Try to update your resume and skill sets, plus get "certs" on LinkedIn for added bonus. Headhunters use these sites like wildfire for real.
As for me, I've gotten a ton of interviews through these big congolmerate sites, but never landed a job due to lack of experience tbh. Once I found my first position where I work now I've just been climbing the ladder
Thanks, I'll check out Linkedin too. The problem is I don't have any real certs that mean anything anymore. I'm certified in Novell Netware, but the version that wasn't Y2K compliant, so not super useful now.
My current employer knows to keep us working in dumb, obscure languages that have no value like Perl or Oracle PeopleSoft. I can't write anything in a modern language that is of use to anyone, but I could learn.
Well I know it's not what you want to hear, but might be worth investing some spare time into getting the basics down for whatever languages you see in the job postings. I personally don't have any certs either, but I can SQL and script pretty decently and that is more than enough for my current role.Thanks, I'll check out Linkedin too.

Yeah I can do that. It probably wouldn't be a stretch to even put some modern languages on there. I know I can write in stuff. My company keeps us always shifting around so we never learn just one thing. I used to develop a ton in VB and SQL Server, but they got rid of that and moved everything to Perl.
If you're working with data I recommend at least putting Tableau on your resume. Seems like a lot of companies are wanting to see that for data visualization.
I managed to solve 2 internet Math problems that supposedly most failed. I feel pretty good.
Solved this while watching Euro 2020.
Just a tip for anyone who wanted to solve this, you need a paper, as the answer cannot be mean to be done using mental calculation
None required advanced math but illustrate for me more on how one approaches problem/challenge than mathematical ability. Such mindset is not retricted to Math but daily stuff as well.

Congrats on getting back into it! I want to start running again, but I'm too fat and I've got too much stuff I need to do, and...
Just watched Hack the Movies on "The mummy" and thought about how godly Brendan Fraser looked in his prime....
What a gods damn hunk of a man, holy hell

I rewatched the first movie (The Mummy) a few months back and man that movie is still so much fun/entertaining. Captures that Indiana Jones feel well. Too bad the sequels were not as good.Just watched Hack the Movies on "The mummy" and thought about how godly Brendan Fraser looked in his prime....

I think it's funny the guy who played Benni in The Mummy lied to Daniel Plainview in There Will Be Blood trying to scam him.
Dude's characters try to cozy up to the most dangerous people lol.

I guess the Astros were just better at cheating than the other players and teams cheating across baseball

Carlos Beltran perfected it in Houston. His trail of creating cheaters can be traced. Lol
I just think it’s funny that now it’s coming out that players/pitchers/teams all across the MLB have had rampant cheating or just doing anything they can to get an advantage.
