You work out zealously and eat healthy meals -- at least most of the time -- and the pounds are starting to drop off. You're looking and feeling more toned, too, just as you'd hoped.
But with all this effort, shouldn't you lose fat? Shouldn't the flab be dissolving faster? If you're of a certain age, you know the flab we're talking about."
I understand that this is the German equivalent to paper-rock-scissors...whatever

I'm finally going to give up on the S&P 500
Bloomberg.com: Worldwide: "U.S. Stocks Decline, Sending Dow Average to Lowest Since 2002
Feb. 21 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks fell for a second week, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average to the lowest in six years, as economic reports raised concern that the government is failing to curb the recession.
Citigroup Inc. and Bank of America Corp. tumbled more than 31 percent, pushing financial shares in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index to the lowest level since 1994, on speculation the U.S. may take them over. Deere & Co. and Caterpillar Inc. helped lead industrial stocks to the steepest declines in the S&P 500 following a record contraction in New York manufacturing.
“The market has been having another panic attack,” Richard Weiss, who oversees about $50 billion as chief investment officer at City National Bank in Beverly Hills, California, said in a Bloomberg Television interview. “Ultimately, we’re going to be seeing some of the buys of the century in equities likely this year, but maybe it’s a little too early right now.”
The S&P 500 fell 6.9 percent to 770.05, extending its worst start to a year to 15 percent. The Dow average retreated 484.74 points, or 6.2 percent, to 7,365.67. The Russell 2000 Index of small companies lost 8.3 percent"

wednesday night
Katie (and Barb) spent an evening in the Emergency Room after Katie spent the day frozen on the couch with stomach pain. After a trip to the doctor, it was off to the ER at Danbury Hospital just in case it was an Appendicitis.
Final diagnosis is an ovarian cysts.
All seem to be fine.
And by the way, I think Danbury Hospital is World class. Every experience with them over the last couple of years they have exceeded my expectations.

WCT 5513 homage
my West Coast time WCT-5513 on a zulu. I have to say this is very comfortable.
This watch was made in conjunction with the respected Albert Wajs of Switzerland of Ollech and Wajs who have manufactured durable and collectible military watches for over 40 years.
It is refitted with a domed genuine sapphire CUSTOM ground crystal made for this watch - convex under NOT flat like a cheap crystal. It has a firm uni-directional ratcheting bezel.(not inexpensive friction which slips. I think it is a little too firm and will try fix that in the future)
This watch has as its power plant a new ETA 2824-2 automatic self-winding movement which is shockproof and all Swiss made.
