Jillian Michaels: 30 Day Shred
This dvd kicks my arse. Definitely not for the squeamish! =)
Once upon a time a man appeared in a village and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for $10 each.
The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at $10 and, as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He next announced that he would now buy monkeys at $20 each. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.
Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer increased to $25 each and the supply of monkeys became so scarce it was an effort to even find a monkey, let alone catch it! The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $50 each! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would buy on his behalf.
In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers: “Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has already collected. I will sell them to you at $35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell them to him for $50 each.”
The villagers rounded up all their savings and bought all the monkeys.
They never saw the man or his assistant again.
OH MY GOD!
My next pet…
Pseudo-randomly, I’ve elected to only listen to songs from albums released in 1994. Consequently, I’ve discovered that this was a really great year in music. A brief list of albums which qualify for playback today:
Sad, though, as I look back. I don’t think I appreciated any of this music 14 years ago. I did own Dookie on cassette tape, though.
I couldn’t tell the manga creator to make me “thicker”. Oh well. Close enough. =)
Now THIS is a TV Medley.
