maybe it’s just the geek in me, but I’m excited about the first full release of firefox 3! and i might just be a part of history… if you feel like you’re the kind of person who might be world record material, read more at the Spread FireFox web site.
I’ve been using the beta and RC1-3s of FireFox 3 (FF3), but a lot of the very useful add-ons that i use haven’t been upgraded for FF3 yet, so i’m very excited for this release, so that the developers can update the add-ons for FF3, especially the theme designers (i miss Noia, it feels so weird with another theme, when it’s my computer).
for those completely lost, firefox is a web browser. a far superior web browser than IE. it’s faster, standards compliant, safer, open source and has the backing of millions if not billions of geeks around the world. the add-ons are extremely useful (especially for a computer geek like myself) and greatly reduces the time it takes to find issues in a website (for the early stages in design and for tweakings towards the end). if there weren’t a handful of stupid websites that actually require IE, i’d completely ditch it. however, i am not so lucky. sign up for the download and prepare to surf like you’ve never surfed before…

The ellipticals and the treadmills


The recumbent bike

It’s a pretty versatile piece of equipment

Katie and my mom, checking out the new toys

That’s our new equipment, sorry it took so long to post these photos, I know you all were waiting anxiously to see the goodies! They really are nice and we have got nothing but compliments on the new stuff – everyone loves our new stuff. I’m not going to lie to you, they are big and expensive – but i really think that this is the beginning of a new direction for T’s Health & Wellness Center. In fact, we’re having an Open House on May 21st – if you’re in the area, are a female and would like to stop in and check out our new equipment for the day, we’ll be there from 7:00am to 7:00pm for a day of free trial periods in the fitness center.
i didn’t post on frid – cuz i was busy. katie and i left frid night to visit some friends down in des moines. a very relaxing and muchly needing great time! not only that, but sister was in des moines for the drake relays, so we got to spend some time with her on saturday night along with the ‘rents (who were down for the meet and to see sister as well). ahhh good times had by all.
today, i worked from home because i needed to head on over to the fitness center as we got our new equipment! very exciting, i must say. two new ellipticals, 2 new treadmills, a recumbent bike and a multi-gym-type-deal… very top-of-the-line and brand, spanking new! now, we’re starting to separate us from the rest of the fitness centers in the area. i call that progress. i forgot to bring the camera, but i’m prolly gonna head over there tonight, so i’ll snap a couple shots and put em up later times.
AM REPORT: box squat towel bench (10-8-6) – box squat i dropped from a 2 box to a 1 box (as i stated last week) – wow, what a difference an inch or two makes… still broke some records, but i was definitely feeling it. towel bench was pretty alright as well. broke some records there too!
