My Daily Musings - Just Because: July 2009

Welcome to A Special Place

Our world is ever changing and fast paced. We are faced with a crumbling economy, the ever impeding threat of terrorism, and natural disasters. We're bombarded on a daily basis with noise, traffic, groceries, work, school, parties etc. We seldom sit and rest our minds anymore. Even more seldom than this, we rarely hear or see anything "good". I don't know about you, but I think it's time for some breathing space.

You have come to such a place. Take your shoes off, put your feet up, grab a cup of tea, coffee or water (for people like myself who should be banned from caffeine) and take a little break.

Friends Don't Let Friends Get on Treadmills with Flipflops

This is a kicks and giggles kind of post. I just have a couple of questions:
1. At what point in this persons mind did they decide what they were about to do was a good idea?
2. Why was his friend not being a good friend by just "saying no"
3. At what point to do you scrape up the little bit of dignity and walk away? Is it before or after the chain is removed, or is it after the flip flops and hat fly off?

It was as if the treadmill declared "TAKE THAT MAN, YOU DON'T OWN ME...I OWN YOU!"

Personally, if it were me, I would have just lain there and played dead...but that's just me.

I watched this video to my own shame so many times and laugh at it (yes at the expense of the person involved) until the tears come. Laughter is an excellent medicine and I will get a daily dose of this one if I need to. Hope it makes you smile.

Just as a sidebar...perhaps they were inspired by the video at the bottom of the post. However, they should have made a note about the "Speed" of treadmill in other video.

Which do you prefer?
