We got to see the announcers up close and we were quick to get started, some of the other people on our team took up to an hour to get to the starting line. I think they were expecting about 45000 people I wouldn't be surprised if there were thousands more than that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YXBX8-lktNQ/TckTdsVn08I/AAAAAAAAANo/Q1fdlCAser4/s1600/IMG_1286.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

I entered the contest mostly to represent the graveyard shift but when i saw my numbers at the weight-in I almost shat myself 270lbs!!! man I was embarrassed but still decided to sign up knowing it was no longer about the money or the bragging rights &amp;nbsp;but my capacity to stay alive. I went on to change my eating habits (but no exercise) and by the 25th i had lost 18lbs it feelt great loosing almost a pound a day and I went out on my first "run" around my neighborhood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The First few blocks felt good , even several blocks later but then i realized that it was only the half way and if I didn't want to call &amp;nbsp;the wife to come get me then I should head back while there was still some pep on my increasingly tired step.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the way back on the last block, MY block the only thought that helped me thru was&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;"DO NOT LET YOUR NEIGHBORS SEE YOU CRY"&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;I could hear my heart pounding on my eye balls, my lungs were all itchy like they were allergic to fresh cold air , and oddly enough I felt the need to take a shit on the corner but I made it all the way home with clean underpants and on a little over 24.min. not bad for a first try.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That afternoon I cleared the trip counter on the odometer after filling up the gas, after all, I was on my way to measure that immense distance from my first run .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;¡¡¡1 mile !!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was all? how in the fuck? no-no-no fuck this!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went around again maybe i had gone thru some kind of black hole making my driving trip less than that of my running trip, something Einstein surely had studied , a fat person on driver's shoes goes farther than a driver on a fat car or something like that , but nope, 1 lousy mile at 24 minutes .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The very next morning after work i went out again and again the day after that and so on for 5 days straight then i read somewhere that you have to take some rest in between so I took a day off &amp;nbsp;but visited a bunch of sites on running &amp;nbsp;, found out about barefoot running, I been running on driver's shoes which are thin and with a very low heel, so barefoot running or minimalist &amp;nbsp;shoes were kinda attractive to me , that weekend i got me a pair of Fivefinger shoes, weird looking things , like toe socks but they felt great and &amp;nbsp;I ran a mile on them right out of the box without any pain and in 3 minutes less than my best time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the past 3 weeks I been doing 1mile to 1.5 miles 4 times a week &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;last weekend I ran 5k (3.2 miles) on 42 minutes, my first mile was slowest at 15 min , last mile i did in 12min&lt;br /&gt;I have lost a solid of 25lbs &amp;nbsp;so far, and I am going to loose more in the next few months, I want to do a 10k in the summer &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yesterday i ran one mile in a little less than 9 minutes!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7036198604348901246-958878984470303119?l=nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/feeds/958878984470303119/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2011/03/new-beginning.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/958878984470303119'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/958878984470303119'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2011/03/new-beginning.html' title='New beginning'/><author><name>Xris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17010272745734177512</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-THGVFyu3qlk/TfpXBmEDONI/AAAAAAAAAQU/YtgVx8NLaw4/s220/IMG_1957.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-T7BlsN7FUao/TYRzkwkK66I/AAAAAAAAAKw/HGNEqhVC8rs/s72-c/100_9948.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036198604348901246.post-7275660038911239945</id><published>2011-03-04T11:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-04T11:06:34.105-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='brazilia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cigar afficionado reviews'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='puros'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cigars'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cao cigars'/><title type='text'>CAO</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-J8vtQ2aLrTc/TXE1gdjclvI/AAAAAAAAAKY/qREmChqVmAw/s1600/IMG_0616.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="285" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-J8vtQ2aLrTc/TXE1gdjclvI/AAAAAAAAAKY/qREmChqVmAw/s400/IMG_0616.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Times; font-size: medium; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"&gt;Eu era céptico sobre este &amp;nbsp;brilhantemente colorido charuto ..mas &amp;nbsp;por outo lado &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"&gt;eu tive sempre um lugar enorme para Brasil em meu coração&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Times; font-size: medium; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 17px;"&gt;HOLY SHIT THIS HAS ME SPEAKING IN TONGUES !!!

I made the mistake of not looking at the shipping until I got the email with the tracking info and thats when I saw I had only paid for parcel post !!!!bummer!!!!! parcel post is only $2.50 but it could take up to 14 business day on transit , more than 2 weeks!! I was thinking they were going to be sitting in a warm dry postal truck for days on end until they would arrive at my house and I checked for the first 3 days and there was no update only that they had received the shipment info and then on the 3rd day late at night i got an email with the words -processed at our location- but it was still somewhere in philly. I then resigned my self to call this a loss they had been out of perfect conditions for 3 days and they had not even left the county, they were still a couple of thousand miles away, I was ready to order another barrel the next day but just before I placed the order  I went to the tracking site and found out that they were in my P.O box already!! somehow USPS didnt update their tracking site on time and it was behind a few days , I ran to the post office got my puros and went home and smoked one , I dont know if it was because i was kinda stocked or because i never really run anywhere and was a little out of breath but either way that smoke was fucking great! I then waited a couple of weeks to have another and of course it was even better, spicy, nice thick smoke, good aroma, excellent draw all around a good fucking stick , i am putting some away for a few months but the rest is going to be gone very quickly&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7036198604348901246-4084567643035935775?l=nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/feeds/4084567643035935775/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2010/07/la-gloria-cubana.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/4084567643035935775'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/4084567643035935775'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2010/07/la-gloria-cubana.html' title='La Gloria Cubana'/><author><name>Xris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17010272745734177512</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-THGVFyu3qlk/TfpXBmEDONI/AAAAAAAAAQU/YtgVx8NLaw4/s220/IMG_1957.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g0oYyo3y7Bc/TD5od8PmeKI/AAAAAAAAAEY/JJv2PU7kIiQ/s72-c/101_8862.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036198604348901246.post-1199737599377290320</id><published>2010-07-08T13:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-08T13:59:07.397-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_g0oYyo3y7Bc/TDY8B6miwaI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/HHBQI48pHb4/s1600/blondehatch.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

The Lot 23 was smooth and it never got harsh it had a nice finish gooood! , The Habano was what a Cuban should taste like  if they had better quality control in Cuba , you know when you smuggle a box of cubans across the border inside your anus you get home and only one or two taste decent the rest are shit.. has that ever happened to you? it happened to me more than once with freaking overpriced cuban cigars and try to get your money back or at least store credit for the rest of the box sheeshz right away with the yelling and pointing of the cuernos de chivo and fuscas and 9mm and oh shit that guy has a sawed-off shut gun.. but i digress that happens a lot too , fuck shit i forgot where i was oh yes, then i tried this one here The Perdomo2 (Perdomo squared) first of all, a nicely executed box press on this stick , you can plumb walls with these corners and the draw was pure fucking bliss, I heard someone call this a medium to semi full bodied cigar well shit!  i dont know where the line ends for either one but it got stronger towards the finish and it had all kinds of different hints of flavors oh it was good so good in fact that now instead of wasting this box without paying attention to all the awesomeness I am going to save it  for when i get some time for myself, I got another Habano (the corojo) on deck right now and  I finished all the laundry, made lunch already, if i can get Pot to take a nap  after she finishes her lunch I am going to sneak out to the patio and sit there on the sunny spot maybe do some reading maybe just do nothing but i will be smoking another Perdomo , crap i still got dishes to do! ok maybe after i do dishes or maybe after the wife comes home ill skip my nap and go to work early, sit outside on the bench and smoke me another  great Perdomo cigar&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7036198604348901246-8493595587103972265?l=nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/feeds/8493595587103972265/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2010/05/there-was-special-on-perdomo-sampler.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/8493595587103972265'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/8493595587103972265'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2010/05/there-was-special-on-perdomo-sampler.html' title='Tabacalera Perdomo does it again!'/><author><name>Xris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17010272745734177512</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-THGVFyu3qlk/TfpXBmEDONI/AAAAAAAAAQU/YtgVx8NLaw4/s220/IMG_1957.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_g0oYyo3y7Bc/S-HnhYwKkAI/AAAAAAAAACA/_2BDYFN4JIU/s72-c/P2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036198604348901246.post-8333515863522452041</id><published>2010-04-21T14:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-04-21T16:06:53.976-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Man O&apos; War'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='puros'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='A.J.

"oily wrapper" yes, "nice draw", so far so good, "citrus" i was wondering if that was from the cigar or the fish tacos con limon i had earlier , then i got bored reading the same thing over and over finished my cigar and went for a walk , figured i would hit antique row down the street and see if i could find a nice ashtray for cheap and found one in the first store i walked in but it was 25 bucks i only had 10 bucks cash. A few  stores later i found a smaller ashtray for only $3.00 and bought it, the guy didn't have a plastic bag and i told him i would just take it like that, then walked down the street to a consignment store , was going to ask the lady at the counter for some old tin posters i saw there a week ago but before i could say anything she saw the ashtray in my hand and asked if i was there to sell it.. I paused for a second and asked how much, she took it and  went to the back,  when she returned she had 15 bucks with her .I told her i wanted at least 25 since it had been my grandads and she said Russ in the back room collected fish stuff (was a fishhead shaped ashtray) and wanted to buy it for himself, I took the money and went back to the first store and offered 20 since by then I  had 22bucks and they took it, no tax! flat 20 !!!

Thompson offed himself , maybe he knew he was a dying breed i think Krassner knows this too , there is nothing left to the left, there are no secrets, there are no conspiracies there is no need for journalism not even the satiric kind is all about entertainment, the masses do not want to be enlightened they just want to be entertained, what would H.S.Thompson be writing about today? would he dye his hair pink and get herpes from some starlet in Hollywood? what is left for Krassner to do other than partake in this form of public wanking ? the revolution was fought it was televised on pay-per view and we got nothing but commercials , we became a nation of sheep thinking we were wolves but we still got fucked by the farmer, i dont know , what is it that you want me to say? that this book was great? heh.. it was alright he is a good writer he is funny but he should have died when he had a chance to become a legend, I don't mean he deserves to die is just that he could have been remembered as the guy that exposed Lyndon B Johnson for fucking the corpse of J.F.K on the neck, instead he wrote about him writing, snap, snap snap, head bobble watheva!  hey like he says ''Irreverence is our only sacred cow''&lt;br /&gt;and it might be true but no one prays here no mo'&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7036198604348901246-6573629518204576953?l=nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/feeds/6573629518204576953/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2009/02/book-review.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/6573629518204576953'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/6573629518204576953'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2009/02/book-review.html' title='Book Review'/><author><name>Xris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17010272745734177512</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-THGVFyu3qlk/TfpXBmEDONI/AAAAAAAAAQU/YtgVx8NLaw4/s220/IMG_1957.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2085/2200383987_181ce18e66_t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036198604348901246.post-2655325620657570539</id><published>2009-02-11T16:48:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-11T16:48:05.741-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Love</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="float: right;

only way to get it was to smuggle it across the border inside a dead Hooker, that stuff was as good as it got, however , after drinking Le Tourment I realized one needs not to drink stuff that tastes and burns like rubbing alcohol with licorice sticks to enjoy Absonthe, hey if you are out there trying to be a purist go ahead and burn your nose hairs in Kubler or some Czech stuff, but if you are pass the bravado of youth and want to be part of the ritual try this brand, the difference between Le tourment and other more ”traditional” brands is the same as a one night stand and a decent long-term relatioinship, sure the one night stand is fun, loud , hardcore and make you do things you’ll pretend you dont remember but you can’t bring that home to moma&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span

href="http://www.flickr.com/people/nopantsxris/"&gt;nopantsboy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Sarah Palin trying her hand at mud slinging reminds me of the monkeys at the zoo that throw shit whenever they get upset, ok, so being on the side of the fence that gets the shit is no fun, but monkey still has to put her hand on shit in order to throw it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so lets talk about the shit in monkey Palin's hands&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;last year: (not 40 years ago) &lt;br /&gt;Sarah Palin recorded a speech for the Alaskan Independence party&lt;br /&gt;convention, this sounds fine, after all, independence party has a nice ring to it. &lt;br /&gt;well, ..almost,&lt;br /&gt;The party was founded by Joe Vogler who wanted Alaska to secede(so much for putting country first) the same Joe Vogler who once said:&lt;br /&gt;"I'm an Alaskan, not an American.

Palin had previously promised to cooperate fully. She said she‘d welcome the investigation initially.&lt;br /&gt;They claim that Democrats in Alaska have taken control of the investigation for political purposes. This, even though, last week, a bipartisan group of lawmakers, including two Democrats and three Republicans issued 13 subpoenas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What are you hiding Sarah? Cheney anyone? Rove?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sarah Palin ordered city employees not to talk to the press.&lt;br /&gt;Palin has left a trail of fired professionals in her wake replaced by friends from school and church. As the “Times” put it, quote, “The Wasilla High School yearbook archive now doubles as a veritable directory of state government.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YOU CAN PUT ALL THE LIPSTICK YOU WANT ON A BULL, AT THE END YOU STILL GET A STEAMY PILE OF BULLSHIT.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So iam fighting tits with tits iam going for the nascar crowd, those who get their news from FOX ''news'' , those people who will vote for Mcain because 'he seems like a guy i could have a beer with and Obama sounds like he is better than us'' &lt;br /&gt;well fuck! i dont want a guy like me running the white house, I want someone smarter than me i want someone who went to a good school, i want someone who knows what the Bush doctrine means i want someone who knows it wasn't Iraq that caused the deaths of thousands of Americans on 9/11. I want someone who knows this country is in economic trouble, so fuck Sarah Palin and fuck John Mcain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for those who dont like what i have to say at least you got to see a better pair of boobs those that the republican ticket is offering&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7036198604348901246-3329101244941581101?l=nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/feeds/3329101244941581101/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2008/09/you-wont-believe-what-happened.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/3329101244941581101'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7036198604348901246/posts/default/3329101244941581101'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nopantsboyxris.blogspot.com/2008/09/you-wont-believe-what-happened.html' title='You wont believe what happened'/><author><name>Xris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17010272745734177512</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-THGVFyu3qlk/TfpXBmEDONI/AAAAAAAAAQU/YtgVx8NLaw4/s220/IMG_1957.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3129/2864514806_fcbe06f663_t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036198604348901246.post-7612048475867683174</id><published>2008-09-19T22:56:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-19T22:56:51.815-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I love my car</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="float: right;
