I did it… I got some shorts this morning and went for a run. I’m kinda winded but, I made some good time. (I decided the head band was too much.)

How fast do you run a mile???

I need some shorts because the weather is supposed to take a hike north to about 90 - 95 on Friday. I’m still a little skeptical about wether or not this is really going to happen, but I should be prepaid by at least having one pair of shorts.

Normally I just cut off the pair of pants that are the most destroyed, but so far this year it’s just not in the cards. I think I’ll have to make a trip to the old GoodWill and see what’s up.

I’m honestly not that excited about the heat that’s coming for about a day, but I guess it’s to be expected. Summer is almost here and I get the feeling Tennessee is going to be a bit hotter than Portland.

Is there anything special that you do to get ready for summer. Making a pair of cut off is about all I can think of.

Why is it the Pope wears the clothes that he does?

I’m sure it all traces back to the days of Rome and the beginning of the Catholic church and there are reasons for it all. I’m just wondering why does he still wear it?

Culture is an interesting beast, especially when it comes to clothes and appeariance. This is a huge topic for me, but I never mention it. I’m really interested in why society dresses the way it does. Yes, I understand Fads and Trends, Marketing strategy and all those things have a huge affect on the way we see things. But, if you push all that crap aside what is left?
