Man skal ikke plage andre,
man skal være grei og snill,
og for øvrig kan man gjøre hva man vil.

Why I work out

Here is a great article from the new York Times about Olga Koltelco, a 91 year old athlete in the Master's Track and Field Games.  My friend Mike Madden sent me this.  Mike is my best friend, and he is the one who challenged me to participate in the senior games when he sent me some throwing equipment for my 60th birthday.  Now I'm hooked.  People like Mike and Olga are an inspiration to me.

---The Alaska Log Home was built in 2003 by Bill Kisken of Log Weavers using the hand scribed Swedish cope system. Bill is an artist. Notice how tightly the logs fit at the ends, this is very diffucult to achieve.
