MJR Health Update April 27th
As you can see by the scale, I have added 2.5lbs since I last weighed myself, which is surprising as you can see by Apple Watch fitness tracker that I worked out 5 days out of the 7 (the center ring). I also hit the Move goal 7 out of 7 days as well (the outer ring). The blue turquoise center ring is the standing goal, which I always hit.
So, to help step it up a notch, my wife and I have decided to get an elliptical cross trainer (pictured above) in the house and start using that for a better workout. That’s how I lost all that weight 10 years ago, which was hitting the elliptical for 20-30 minutes every single day. I was hoping to be able to get back into my gym by now, but Washington State is on the verge of going backwards in our phases of covid shutdowns next week because of raising cases and hospitalizations…so… I’m not waiting for that and instead I’ll bring at least part of the gym inside the house! Wish me luck!

Thoughts on why the PlayStation store didn’t close & why the VITA failed.
MJR Extras – What started as me wanting to talk about Sonic Wings Special on PS1, quickly turned into a rant about why Sony really shut down the PlayStation store…and the disappointment on how the Vita was abandoned.

LOVE DEATH + ROBOTS VOLUME 2 | Official Trailer | Netflix

The NSFW animated anthology returns with a vengeance. Naked giants, Christmas demons, and robots-gone-wild… Consume irresponsibly. Volume 2 coming May 14.
I absolutely loved the first anthology. Reminds me of a modern take on the classic Heavy Metal movie from the 1980s. Remember that?
