Tim Tebow makes training debut shirtless in the rain
Tim Tebow, now a New York Jet, baffled the media by making his public training debut with an “unusual” shirtless run in the rain, something he won’t even do in his buttoned-up Jockey underwear ads.
The move has put him front and center on every sports page today.

Day 2 was really the first day of full competition with medals being awarded.
The biggest story was Ryan Lochte winning the gold in the 400-meter IM, while Michael Phelps finished out of the money.
Men’s team gymnastics started with the U.S. on top after Day 1, with the final set for Monday. American Danell Leyva finished first in the individual all-around.

Life a little better on the cheap…
So, my five year old laptop has been having some “panic attacks” a lot over the last 4-5 months. And I did NOT have the funds to buy the new MacBook Pro laptop I would like to have…
So doing a little research I found that a lot of these “attacks” – called “kernal panics” – can happen when a hard drive gets to be a certain age and begin the process of dying. Eek! Not good.
That, coupled with the fact I had no room left on my tiny 160GB hard drive, led me to send in my laptop to MyService.com to upgrade the hard drive to 500GB for an affordable $249. Free shipping each way.
After a week of jockeying between Michael and his associate John’s computers to keep the blog going, I got my laptop back and it’s great. MyService.com not only did the upgrade, but they did a full diagnostic and transferred all my files to the new hard drive and sent back my old hard drive for my files.
Now, no kernal panics – “spinning beach balls” – and I have a lot more room on the hard drive. Nice fix to get me through a year or so when, I hope, to afford the new MacBook Pro.
Just saying… sometimes the smaller answers can work.
If you have issues with your Mac, make sure you check out MyService.com – big thumbs up!
(And no – I received nothing for my review of their services. I paid like everyone else. Just putting the good word out there…)
2012 Olympics: Ryan Lochte wins 1st Gold medal for USA

Ryan is also very easy on the eyes… 🙂
