A very special person shared this quote with me today. “The greatest sign of success for a teacher is to be able to say, ‘The children are now working as if I did not exist.’ But this holds true for leadership in general–give people space and they flourish.”

Don't think you can throw a 20lb weight as far as you think you can throw it. It ain't gonna make it to the grass patch like you think. It'll land on the patio pavers instead. And you'll regret your choice the instant the dumbbell leaves your hand leaving you question who, not what, is the real dodo

was looking up sliding clamp plates and came across Kipp, a German clamping technology manufacturer, and their awesome logo.

(I modified it a bit so the top part of the K is more straight and more figuratively than literally represents a handle bar.)

Elegantly Wasted by INXS is wicked cool when played back at 0.75 speed. (Settings--gear icon > Playback speed > 0.75)
