Feeling Broke
I'm feeling quite a bit poorer than I have in a while. Part of that is due to Christmas, and all the gifts that need to be purchased and shipped. That part I'm used to.

Exploring modern ruins - Power Plants
A couple of guys poke around in an abandoned coal-fired power plant.
The guy in the video below seems to believe that he is exploring an abandoned nuclear plant. It's just a plain old coal-burner. Other than the misinformed narrative, it's a pretty cool vid.
It's kind of sad to see this, even though these are inefficient and obsolete power stations. A lot of the equipment, although old and obsolete, is identifiable.

I bought a heart rate monitor for home use recently. I won it from an online auction for $8.00.

First snow this season
Snow started while I was at work yesterday. I was a little surprised that it was able to stick - not to mention accumulate a couple of inches!

Music to help move a workout along...
Looking for suggestions for uptempo music. Most classic rock doesn't cut it with the tempo, along with country.
Some of the stuff I currently listen to for cardio and weight training (in no particular order):
