Um, yeah… I’m still trying to graduate from the 20″ to the 22″ box. At Bootcamp this morning, I ate it on the wall that’s, like, 18″ or 19″.
New goal: Dedicate myself to jumping high enough to land on the roof of an APD panda.

I'm about two-thirds of the way through this detective thriller, and I'm hooked. It's set in modern Norway with flashbacks to WWII (catnip for me!) and features a somewhat grim hero that engenders empathy. I can't help pulling for the guy as I watch him struggle with his case and his life. The cast of characters is a realistic but motley crew, and it reminds me of other favorites set in cold, snowy climes: the Millenium Trilogy and Smila's Sense of Snow.
Recently finished...
I picked up this book after reading an interview with Lee Child (author of the Jack Reacher thrillers). He referred to The Lost as "the book of the century" and since I devour as much as I can about the Holocaust to try to make sense of it all, I decided I needed to read it immediately. Part memoir, part detective tale, this book was thoroughly engrossing. It's intelligent, annoying, moving, frustrating, and ultimately, rewarding and beautifully written. It challenged me in ways I didn't expect, and I was sad when it was finished.
I seem to remember seeing a certain parkour phenom peform similar acts of daring… on a UTPD cruiser I think it was… Nah… Probably just my imagination free-running wild
I LOVE IT! HA! I wanna go jump on shit right now!
