Day 2 - Going Ghandi Monday 09-28-09

So I am almost through day 2 of the 100 day (hmmm..what to call it, adventure, plan, journey -I will have to work on that) thingy. I have been fasting for these first two days Sunday and Monday, I think it will be a good jump start to the (quest, challenge, goal...ahh) thingy. I really like to fast, it is a great feeling of accomplishment and cleansing - just drink a lot of water and the hunger goes away pretty quickly - I have gone 4 days before with no problem .

I think more people would fast if it was cooler you know hipper for the kids- so I have come up with a hot new marketing term for fasting "Going Ghandi". I believe this will be the perfect counterbalance to the Kanye West, Joe Wilson douche syndrome we are currently in.

You make the call

"Be the change you want to see in the world" "My life is my message"

"YOU LIE!" His reasoning - "it was spontaneous"
"I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down in history as the voice of this generation....this decade." Countless others examples of douchebaggery

Certainly this can be something that can catch on, Ghandi has his own movie staring Ben Kingsley (by the way if you see the movie Ben Kingsley was born to play that part), has easily 20-30 books written about him, he respected women and held them in higher regard than men and he spun his own cloth and made his own clothes.
He is the perfect new hero for this generation, movie star, surrounded by the ladies and his own clothing line. So when you start hearing - Dude#1: "dude want to catch lunch" Dude #2: "nah - I am GOING GHANDI" or instead of people yelling "EAT SH*T and DIE!" you will hear "eat nothing and love one another" remember you heard it hear first. Let's get on the band wagon now, put on the Khadi wear, the Topi cap and the sandals - stop all that eating - walk 100 miles just to get a beat down by the man - do it now so later you won't be called a "whandi".

Besides going ghandi on Monday I also did a 20 min interval routine on the treadmil and "picked up weights" (this is a Leboism named after my son) did chest, shoulders and back - I am sore today.
Talk to you soon!
Joe
Peace!
