Mostly
today I did three things: Treadmill walk'n, nap'n,
and cleaning. I did eight miles on the treadmill,
that puts me at 47 miles for the week, but I might
have a couple more left in me today.

It's
now week two of Walk Kansas; I managed to do 40
miles in my first week, only three of those were
activity miles- you can claim 15 minutes of activity
as a mile, but I consider that cheating somewhat,
because it's very much up to the walker to decide
the strenuousness level and how continuous it
is- many 15 minute activities I don't really equate
to being a mile- so 37 of my miles are actual
miles, except for the three that everyone claimed
for yoga- or maybe I won't count my yoga miles.
I'm on the fence-

Today
is the first day of Walk Kansas which I'm a team
captain for. Last year I was on the winning team
(at least among the teams at work), so hopefully
we'll be able to win again. To kick things off
I hit the treadmill with my laptop... yep, my
laptop. I loaded three episode of BSG on it and
watched while I walked; I got 12.5 miles in!

There's
a big hullabaloo about an air tanker contract
the Air Force has created with a French company
instead of going with Boeing. It's a huge contract
and a lot of jobs are on the line, and now Congress
is livid at the Pentagon and the Air Force for
not taking our economy into account.... ....Really
there's no one to blame but Congress itself though-
It was they who passed a law saying that specific
French company was to be treated and considered
an American company, they completely tied the
hands of the Air Force which set five areas to
judge which refueling aircraft they would order,
and Boeing lost in all five areas.
