My goal for 2012

I have decided that this is the year to run a marathon. I have run 7 halves and want the challenge of the longer distance. The Ottawa Marathon takes place the week after graduation so the timing will be good for all. It is later in the season but I am hoping that the higher latitude will mean coolers temps. The route looks fairly level too. I will probably start training right after new year. My goal will be to run in less than 4 hours. My goal for my first half was under 2 hours which I just made by 13 seconds.

For the true Beach Boys Fan....

Of which I am one. It is fascinating to see how the music on the album is constructed. It is a shame that it was never released in 1967 when it was done. I don't expect that it would have had the same impact as Sgt. Pepper's did but it would have changed the way that the Beach Boys were perceived .

Good Movie I Saw

I really liked this movie, especially the attention Scorcese paid to the history of film.

Unlocking a cell phone

I am very proud of myself for unlocking an old ATT cellphone from so I can use with any sim card I want from any provider I want. I bought an unlock code online for $7.99 and then went to a T Mobile booth at the mall. I bought a "pay as you go" sim card for $20. When I inserted the T Mobile sim card, my ATT phone told me it was an invalid card. I inputted the unlock code and it is now unlocked. So now I also have a new cell phone number which I could consider my personal number.
